Frequently Asked Questions
My outdoor faucet froze and burst last winter. Can you help prevent this from happening again?
Absolutely. This is a common issue for New York homes. Our team can repair the burst pipe and then install a frost-proof hose bib or sillcock, which is designed to prevent freezing by shutting the water off inside your home's warmer wall. We can also inspect and insulate other vulnerable water pipes in your home as part of our comprehensive plumbing services.
My garbage disposal is constantly jamming. Should I just replace it, or can you repair it?
We can handle both. Often, a jam is caused by a simple obstruction or a worn part that we can quickly repair. Our technicians will perform a thorough inspection to diagnose the issue. If a replacement is the more reliable and cost-effective solution, we can expertly install a new, high-quality disposal unit and ensure it's properly connected to your sink and electrical system to prevent future problems.
I have an old electrical panel and am adding a new garbage disposal. Do I need an upgrade?
It's a smart question. Older panels, especially in New York homes, may not have the capacity for new appliances. Our licensed electricians can perform an electrical inspection and assess your panel's load. We often recommend upgrading to a modern circuit breaker panel during disposal installation to ensure safety, prevent overloads, and provide room for future home improvements. We handle the entire process from inspection to installation.
