Al was there on time and promptly went about getting things moved and packed. He had staff that was professional and hard working. Everyone was friendly, demonstrated excellent customer service, and kept a constant with moving things quickly and efficient. They set up everything in my new house. Oh, before I forget, I probably have the heaviest furniture in the whole world. Al and team moved and not one piece was scratched or damaged. Best part, Al and team returned the next day to remove my garbage and junk. GREAT JOB!!
"I called the service because I had some old gross stuff left behind in the basement. I wasn't sure how it would go, but I needed to have it OUT. So I made an appointment for a Saturday morning. The company called to comfirm and then called to let me know they should be at my home shortly, because the weather had changed to heavy rain. I can not say enough!! They came I pointed to the stuff, they removed it all. The two man where polite and about their business no fooling around. So after that job, I called them again, and once again, I called, they came over I pointed to the stuff and they removed it. I loved it.
Grew up on the North Shore, and I am still here offering several different services all the way from junk removal to welding and everything in between. Thank you for choosing Angi & Have a Wonderful Day Everyday.
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.
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.
You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
On average, it takes one to four hours for a professional to install a garbage disposal. This includes removing the old unit, taking necessary measurements for positioning, removing and fitting new pipes, and installing the brand-new disposal system. If there are unforeseen issues, such as accessibility concerns, the process takes longer.
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.
