Kitchen Plumbing Repairs and
Replacements
Whether
it’s something simple like a new dishwasher that
needs plumbing in, a garbage disposal
installation, faucet upgrades, or an emergency
involving a burst pipe or a leaking tap, we can be
there to help you out.
The
kitchen is the heart of the home. They tend to be
the central focus of our lives. Preparing
three meals a day (and clean up) requires time and
effort, so we gather in the kitchen to keep the cook
company, to assist in preparation or even provide a
dry towel for dish duty. Many homes are now equipped
with islands where the children do their homework or
guests hang out. So wouldn't you want the
heart of your home to show the love you express
daily?

Upgrading faucets, replacing old sinks,
installing energy efficient appliances
and those great ice and water in-door
refrigerators add to the welcome feel of
your home's heart. We can help.

Garbage Disposal Maintenance
Perhaps the
most important task you can and should take on
regularly is cleaning the garbage disposal and drain
in order to avoid possible clogs. Food remnants that
are left within this appliance will not only produce
bacteria and foul odors, but will also disrupt the
proper functioning of the appliance. By taking
a few simple steps you can extend the life of your
disposal.
-
Plug
sink and fill with 2-4 inches of cold water.
Then unplug sink and turn on the disposal. This
will help lift the small particles and get them
down the drain.
-
For a
deep clean: When you have old ice in the ice
maker that needs to be disposed of, add it to
the sink of water and then run the disposal.
This will help knock sludge and debris off of
the grinding elements so that they can make
their way down the drain.
-
For
smells wafting up from the drain add a little
soap to the above sink of water. Or when
you have lemon, lime or orange peels add them to
the disposal. The release of their citrus oils
will freshen up the disposal and room.
