"They do not cover my new units now. I found them to be difficult to work with. They sent somebody out to repair it, which we were told the compressor was gone so they couldn't repair it. But, the person they sent out didn't want to speak to a woman, he wanted to speak to my husband. They were just kind of curt. It was during a hot time of the year, but the company they sent out acted like they didn't even want to be here. We have an insurance on our house. My dishwasher had a recall and my garbage disposal was acting up and they came out and fixed it and they replaced the garbage disposal. My co-pay was like $75 for each. They kept trying to give me an unit that was not big enough for my house. It's 3600 square feet and we knew what was best for the house. I don't know what they were trying to sell me. I have no idea. My husband said, "No, we don't want this." So they did what they call a, "buy out" For one unit we got $600 and the other one we got $500 and the units were not even 10 years old. I paid $75 twice because when the first unit went out they sent somebody, the second unit went out they sent somebody out again."

"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 Whether it was upgrading outdated fixtures, installing new piping, or ensuring compliance with local codes, he approached each task with diligence and skill.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. His professionalism, expertise, and dedication to excellence make him a valuable asset to any project. We look forward to continuing our partnership with him in future endeavors."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

Your garbage disposal will only affect the health of your septic tank if you’re using it too frequently, or filling it with organic waste that doesn’t fully break down. If the tank fills up with too many solids, the bacteria won’t have enough time to consume it before more is added, which can lead to an overflow in the drain field. Your tank will need to be pumped more frequently with excessive or improper garbage disposal use.

Once you have your garbage disposal disconnected, you can remove the mounting bracket by unscrewing the bolts that are holding the bracket. You can back them out just enough to pop off the snap ring, which prevents the bottom portion of the bracket from disconnecting from the top when you unscrew the bolts. Use a regular screwdriver to pop off the snap ring, and the rest of the components should fall off by themselves.

While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.

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.

The most common garbage disposal size in the U.S. is 1/2 horsepower. This size is ideal for households with three or fewer people or those that don't produce much food waste. Although 1/2 horsepower can't handle the typical food waste load for a household of four (which is about 250 pounds of food waste annually) as effectively as 3/4 horsepower, it remains the most common size of garbage disposal on the market.
