"Cain and his crew came and did a great job mounting my TV above my fireplace and installing an electrical outlet. They were fast and easy to work with. They answered all my questions and made sure everything was working before they left. I would definitely recommend!"

"I am pleased to share my experience with Todd, who has provided outstanding plumbing services across 8 of our investment properties, all of which underwent full remodels. From the outset, Todd demonstrated exceptional professionalism and expertise. His attention to detail and comprehensive understanding of plumbing systems were evident in every phase of the remodels. Whether it was upgrading outdated fixtures, installing new piping, or ensuring compliance with local codes, he approached each task with diligence and skill. His ability to work collaboratively with our design and construction teams significantly contributed to the efficiency of the projects. Todd maintained clear communication throughout the process, promptly addressing any concerns and providing valuable recommendations that enhanced the overall quality of the remodels. Moreover, his commitment to meeting deadlines and staying within budget was commendable. We encountered challenges typical of remodels, but Todd handled them with a problem-solving mindset, ensuring that the projects stayed on track. The finished results speak volumes about his craftsmanship. The plumbing installations are not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, adding significant value to our properties. Our tenants have consistently expressed satisfaction with the quality of the plumbing work, which has contributed to positive rental experiences. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Todd for any plumbing needs, especially for extensive remodels.

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

Replacing a garbage disposal costs anywhere from $150 to $950, but the average cost is somewhere around $550. There are two types of garbage disposal units, and continuous feed disposals tend to cost more than batch feed disposals. Going for an aluminum garbage disposal is also significantly cheaper than choosing a stainless steel garbage disposal. You'll also need to factor in the horsepower of the motor, labor, and the removal and disposal of your old unit.

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.

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

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.

There are many maintenance and repair issues that lead to a malfunctioning garbage disposal. Regular clogs place wear and tear on the motors, leading to an eventual shutdown. Electrical issues at the breaker, wall outlet, or disposal itself can fry the unit. The most common cause is simply a worn-down motor. These motors can only handle so much use before powering down for good.
