What customers said about garbage disposal installation
Manny was great! Took the time to do the install right by replacing a leaky pipe and trap system along with the new premium disposal.
Contacted for a garbage disposal replacement. Received immediate response and was onsite for replacement very quickly at a reasonable price. Would recommend for any future plumbing needs.
Jerome is amazing as always! Anytime we have a problem, we call this company and request Jerome. We’ve had them come to our property about 4-5 times for different reasons, never the same. The service is always efficient, professional, and solution based. If you’re looking for an affordable and fast company, look no…
Kendall was super efficient and walked me through everything he was doing! Really good work!
Came on time and fixed/replaced my garbage disposal after carefully checking issues.
Justin did an amazing professional job! Milestone is our go to service, always the best professional service and great reliable guaranteed service, I won't use any other service for my electrical, plumbing and HVAC needs! Great job Milestone 👏
