"Adding to the above review: NEGATIVE STARS 1. The Daikon' ductless mini-split' unit, sold to me by Brian Enders and installed by H.L. Bowman Incorporated, unleashed a deluge that not only saturated the hardwood floor in my dining room but also flowed onto bookshelves and drawers in the room below, drenching 25 family photo albums. 2. The water pooled atop and between each section of my quarter-sawn oak Stickley barrister bookcase. 3. The water seeped inside each section of the bookcase. 4. The water ran onto particularly important and expensive books, framed photographs, as well as four small wooden boxes containing four of my dog's cremains. 5. In past years, water from a second-floor unit emitted sufficient water to cause a 12' by 5' section of the upstairs floor to crash through to the main floor. All furniture and items in that 12' by 5' section were so water-damaged that they had to be discarded. Water ran behind the plaster and into the wiring contained within the plaster walls. I had to make an insurance claim to have that water damage repaired. 6. In past years, water from a basement unit emitted sufficient water to cause an entire wall of built-in cabinetry to be destroyed and have to be replaced. I had to make an insurance claim to have that water damage repaired. 7. In past years, four of the six "ductless mini-split" units have simply not worked. They do not cool. They do not heat. They hang on the wall and blink. 8. Throughout these years of destruction, distress, and financial duress caused by the six 'ductless mini-splits,' Brian Enders has consistently refused to rectify the problem. 9. The FIRST REASON Brian Enders uses to refuse to rectify the problem: When the ceiling caved in from the upstairs unit and the cabinetry was ruined by the downstairs unit, Brian Enders offered substandard assistance. He sent a contractor to my home to spackle over water-damaged plaster, thus sealing water inside the walls. When I saw the inferior repairs Enders offered, I stated that I was going to call my lawyer. Enders said that because I had threatened legal action, his company would no longer serve me. 10. The SECOND REASON Brian Enders gives for refusing to rectify the problems: When the ceiling caved in from the upstairs unit and the cabinetry was ruined by the downstairs unit and Brian Enders offered substandard assistance, I wrote bad reviews of Brian Enders and his company "all over the internet." (Enders words.) Yes. I did, indeed, write bad reviews of Brian Enders and his company, H. L. Bowman, Incorporated, "all over the internet" and will continue to do so until Brian Enders and his company, H. L. Bowman, Incorporated, make the six Daikon "mini-split" units they installed in my home work properly. 11. Because Brian Enders and his company, refuse to help me, I have paid five other companies, & one private contractor, to come to my home to diagnose and repair the six Daikon "ductless mini-split" units. Each one has been unable to do so. Each one says that there is something so faulty about these units &/or the installation of these units that it is impossible to determine what is actually wrong with them. 12. On Saturday, June 22, 2024, I tried to set up a service call with H.L Bowman, Incorporated, using a form on their website. 13. On Saturday, June 22, 2024, I received a text from H.L. Bowman confirming an appointment for Monday, June 24, 2024, with a note relating that on the day of the service, I would receive a call 30 minutes before the technician arrived. 14. On Monday, June 24, 2024, I instead received a phone call from H.L. Bowman informing me that they are too busy serving their VIP customers to send a technician out to serve me. Today is Tuesday, June 24, 2025. H.L. Bowman has still not rectified their financial and material injury to me."

"I contacted Diane's company to inquiry about the possibility of contracting her people to repair my new bathroom vanity, which had been damaged by my bathroom contractor, rather than have the contractor replace the entire vanity. Diane shocked me in two ways: (1) she explained to me in the most thorough and understandable way possible why my vanity couldn't be repaired to match its original factory condition (2) she offered to write me a letter, which she did, to explain the reasons for this in a professional manner. I haven't encountered such an honest business person in a long, long time. As a matter of fact, I've grown cynical about contractors in general, because recently I've experienced quite a few instances where they have been less than honest about their work and are willing to perform inferior work for which I paid good money. To top it off, they never apologize for doing the wrong things! Again, Diane will personally explain to you if she can repair something or if she cannot. For that, I rate her highly. Thanks, Diane!"

Professional plumbing technicians charge between $50 and $100 per hour for their services. Since most standard garbage disposal replacements require approximately one hour to complete, labor costs fall within this range. For installations involving additional complexities such as plumbing modifications or electrical work, the time requirement and associated costs increase proportionally.
When evaluating garbage disposal repair versus replacement, consider both the unit's age and the nature of the problem. Minor issues with newer disposals often warrant repair, particularly if the unit remains under warranty. However, for disposals approaching the end of their five to 10-year lifespan or facing significant mechanical failures, replacement frequently represents the more economical long-term solution, offering improved performance and renewed warranty protection.
A professional garbage disposal replacement requires approximately one hour when no complications arise. More complex installations involving electrical updates or plumbing modifications may extend to several hours. The technician will remove the existing unit, position and secure the new disposal, connect all plumbing and electrical components, and test the system before completing the job.
For standard replacements where the electrical connection remains unchanged, a plumber can often handle the entire project. If your installation requires electrical modifications such as new circuits or outlet installations, you may need an electrician's services as well. Some service providers employ technicians with dual certification, allowing them to address both plumbing and electrical aspects of the installation, streamlining the process and potentially reducing overall costs.
