"I had a small pile of mostly scrap metal (old gutters, a disassembled TV antenna) and some random other junk, including some fluorescent tubes. I got 3 quotes and Nick's was by far the most reasonable. He responded immediately and we easily scheduled the pick up. He is very personable and professional and I highly recommend him. Additionally, I think the fact that Nick's Junk Thief serves the Fairfax/Burke area all the way from Warrenton testifies to his entrepreneurial energy."

Above all, we are watchful of our customers' interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"Potomac Pros is fantastic! We had a project to remove trash from our cluster common areas (where homeowners left old fence lumber, tires, etc.) Mauricio and crew were fast & efficient. They kept me informed of the work progress and sent me pictures where trash debris was larger than originally surveyed. They made sure the area was clear so the natural vegetation can grow (and our community mowing service has access to maintain/control natural growth). I would highly recommend Potomac Pros to other clusters (and homeowners) looking for a dependable company to give them a fair quote for their trash removal."

Bussines founded by Cristian Arias and his family who are passionate about home We undertand that each family its different and we want to provide a service that adapts to the needs of each family

"Phenomenal work! We hired C & Brothers to remodel our primary bathroom after obtaining numerous bids. Edwin managed our project - he kept us well informed throughout the entire remodel. The entire contract team was prompt, timely, conscientious, and meticulous. As messy as these projects can be, they kept our home clean and as dust free as possible. Edwin and Christian made great recommendations and steered us toward sound decisions throughout the project. They found us a beautiful slab of quartz for the vanity and bath surround that looks absolutely incredible. We could not be happier, would hire them again and highly recommend C & Brothers!"

Garbage Removal questions, answered by experts

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

Garbage disposals last an average of seven years but can function well past 10 years. However, as time goes on and more food is ground, the grinding plates will slowly lose their edge and need replacing. A motor likely won’t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. 

Garbage disposals fit the drains of nearly every sink out there due to universal drain hole sizes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, but the same isn’t true for the housing underneath the sink. You need plenty of room to fit a garbage disposal under there, so measure the space ahead of time and use those dimensions when shopping for a new model. If you’re replacing an existing model, get one in that size.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.
