"Aces Four installed a sewer cleanout and hydrojetted my sewer line to clean what was diagnosed as "soft blockage". They did this for half the cost of another bid, and also ran a sewer scope. I was very pleased with this work. However, the sewer scope revealed another issue further down the line causing slow draining. Because of water in the line they were not able to make a definitive diagnosis, and the blockage was too far to reach with a snake. Still, they recommended digging out the line at about $8,000. Later I found another plumber willing to attach two snakes together to clear that blockage. After that was cleared, sewer scope revealed cracks/holes that can be sealed without digging out the line for under $4,000. On one hand I really appreciate the job they did for me, and I can understand that they could not make a proper diagnosis with the water in the line. But they did not offer alternative solutions, so I had to call someone else to figure out the issue. Still, I would call them in the future, and in fact just recently did that."

"We had a drain leak in a wall that caused damage to our house. Because it was dirty drain water, everything it touched (ceilings, floors, walls, trim, insulation) had to be removed and disposed of. After the water mitigation and decontamination was complete, we needed to repair/restore the damaged areas. Andrew came highly recommended from the water mitigation company, so we had high expectations and were not disappointed. He was easy to work with, responsive, patient, flexible with our schedule, and very accommodating for some special things we wanted done. The price was reasonable and quality of the work was outstanding. He coordinated everything with our insurance company so that the whole experience was hassle-free. We really appreciated his attention to detail, his care to ensure that surrounding areas were protected during the work, and that he made sure everything got put back correctly. Everything is now nicer than it was before the damage. We would absolutely hire him again--we wouldn't trust anyone else to do this sort of work on our house."

"We needed a French drain installed in our back yard to divert ground water around our septic drain field. Dillon spent the time to understand exactly what our needs were, and to explain what he would be doing. He was responsive and easy to communicate with. He gave us a detailed quote, at a significantly lower price than the other bid. He arrived on time and worked late, and got the job done earlier than promised. He spent the time to clean up the mess. He cleaned up our driveway (where he had temporarily dumped a pile of gravel) and the side of our house (where he drove his equipment back and forth to move dirt and gravel) far better than I expected. I would definitely hire him again."

"Perms-Dry did an outstanding job. They explained the work to be done in detail, arrived on time, completed the work in one day. Their workers professional and did a great job of cleaning up once the work was complete. I have seen no signs of water issues since they installed the system"

"Very pleased with selecting 1st Response. The price was competitive and the quality of workmanship very good. I intentionally delayed providing a review to allow time for any issues to arise and thus far, the equipment has been trouble free and performs as designed. During the installation, there was an issue with the thermostat that required a couple days to resolve, however, there was never a concern that 1st Response would not meet its obligations. The team was professional in appearance and demeanor while at my house. Absolutely would hire again..."

"Colton came out several times to scope out the project details and provide a bid, both with and without cabinets included. After I gathered seven, we decided to hire Carlstrom Construction/Kitchen Visions for the whole job with the exception of the countertop fabrication and install (done through a Costco deal with another company). I had a tight timeline to meet so we worked quickly to establish decisions on cabinetry and a start date.

After the cabinets were built in Sean's shop, Sean and Jerry came out to do the remodel in our kitchen. The work went quickly and efficiently on the days when they had everything they needed. They were flexible and accommodating as I had questions and concerns. Thoughtfulness and attention to detail in their workmanship are noticeable in the finished work. I also especially appreciated it when Jerry needed to pop upstairs to check on some connected plumbing and took the care to remove his shoes since we're a no-shoes household. That, along with Sean's ideas and feedback as we spoke during the course of the project displayed their care and experience in delivering great results. 

Some delays on materials (cabinet fronts, flooring) came up but they still completed the work within a day of when we needed the kitchen to be completed. There were also a few surprises (lighting didn't quite illuminate the new peninsula so I hired an electrician to put in pendants this week, some cabinets had less usable space than we expected) All things considered, this project went relatively smoothly. We ran several thousand over budget, but it was completed well. Even with some hiccups from the counter top installation delay and flooring delays, they were able to work swiftly to get everything done. At one point, we realized our large stand mixer wouldn't fit on the new counters because of the valance to accommodate under-cabinet lights or on any of the new slide-out pantry shelves. Sean was very flexible about lowering the drawer guides a few inches even though it was already in so we appreciated it.

It's only been a week now, but we're definitely enjoying our new kitchen. Some adhesive smells are still lingering so they're continuing to be aired out and I'm still finding sawdust film on cabinet surfaces (and everywhere in the garage), but we're otherwise quite happy with the completion of our kitchen. As I've been gradually reorganizing the space in the kitchen, I actually found that a few more shelves would be helpful. When I mentioned this to Sean on a short visit to tie up loose logistical ends, he even offered to make the two shelves for me. Overall, they are focused on making sure we got what we needed for the kitchen and making sure we're satisfied.

Overall, Carlstrom Construction does great work are a pleasure to work with for any of your remodeling needs. We will definitely keep them in mind for any major remodel projects we would like to tackle in the future.

"White glove treatment is the best way to describe how Kitchen's Plus handled my kitchen project. From my first meeting with the designer to my final punch list review everything went very well. No high pressure sales, quality products/materials, and fantastic attention to detail and commitment to customer service. My PM, Tim Burr, made sure I was taken care of every step of the way. Even coming out on a Saturday morning to deal with a small drip from the kitchen sink. Regarding commitment to excellence, the tile installer noticed small imperfections on the back splash tile. He would not install an inferior product and ordered all new tile. I plan on using Kitchen's Plus again when I get around to remodeling my bathroom."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

No, you do not need a garbage disposal to have a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without one, and while it's rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn't have a disposal, it is possible. The two appliances pair well and are often installed together because a disposal simplifies meal cleanup.

However, your dishwasher should not be used as a replacement for a garbage disposal. Subjecting it to continuous food leftovers can lead to major clogs. If you choose not to install a garbage disposal, you should thoroughly rinse your plates or scrape excess food into the trash or a compost pile before loading them into the dishwasher to prevent plumbing issues.

As with many appliances, proper maintenance is key to maximizing your garbage disposal’s life span. If everyone in your household is on board with proper care and maintenance, like running water while operating the disposal, you should get plenty of years out of your unit. Avoid putting the wrong food items down the disposal, including pasta, rice, bread, and more.

While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.

On average, a garbage disposal can last anywhere from 7 to 12 years, with many models functioning well for about 10 years. With heavy usage, a motor may last a minimum of five years, while grinding plates will wear down over time. It's generally a good idea to consider a replacement if your unit is approaching the 10-year mark. Other signs that it's time for a new disposal include frequent leaks, persistent clogs, lingering odors, lack of power, or unusual noises. If your unit is not that old, it's worth investigating if a less expensive part, like a rubber seal or a loose hose, is causing the issue.

Whether it's worth repairing your garbage disposal depends on its age and the specific problem. Generally, if the unit is eight years old or younger, repair is a good option. For minor issues like a bad seal or a simple jam, a repair can be inexpensive, sometimes under $10. However, if the motor is broken (a repair that can cost $150 or more) or the unit is getting old, it's often more cost-effective to replace the entire disposal.
