Here is a quick list of the top plumbing services we offer:
Common Garbage Disposal Problems We Fix
Garbage disposals are tough — but they’re not indestructible. If you’re noticing any of these signs, it’s time to call Colt:
- Disposal won’t turn on or hums without spinning
- Water backing up into your sink
- Strange grinding or rattling noises
- Persistent clogs or slow draining
- Leaks under the sink
- Foul odors that won’t go away
- Reset button constantly tripping
Trying to fix a garbage disposal yourself can be dangerous — blades, electrical wiring, and water don’t mix. Our plumbers have the right tools and experience to diagnose and repair your unit safely.
Professional Garbage Disposal Installation
Don’t have a disposal yet? You’re missing one of the simplest ways to keep your kitchen cleaner and more efficient.
A new garbage disposal:
- Makes cleanup faster and easier
- Helps prevent clogged kitchen drains
- Reduces food waste in your trash
- Runs quietly with newer, high-efficiency models
We can install a new garbage disposal the same day you call. Our team will help you choose the right model for your sink setup and family size, then handle the full installation — from wiring and plumbing to leak testing and cleanup.

I never write reviews, ever. I had to write this one because I was honestly blown away by this company.★★★★★ 6 months ago
It started with Sean coming over for what I assumed was … Read More just a standard quick inspection. He didn't just look around, he actually installed 6 new thermostats in my house right then and there, completely for free (to me). That set the tone for the whole experience, and the crew that came later really amazed me also.
Jack and Jacob contacted me when they were on the way, showed up exactly on time, and worked harder than I expected was possible. They had to fully insulate the house (attic, 2nd floor, 1st floor, basement, and an outside crawl space). The weather was miserable. It was absolutely freezing outside, and then it started pouring rain. Jack and Jacob were up on ladders, freezing and soaking wet, and they just kept working without a single complaint. They honestly could have taken the easy route and drilled through my inner walls to get the job done fast. Instead, they chose to do it the hard way to make sure they didn't destroy the inside of my house. They took the time to remove the vinyl siding, drill from the outside in, and then put the siding back on perfectly. You just do not find people who care that much about your home anymore.
Jack was incredible at keeping me fully updated through the entire process so I never had to guess what was going on. It turned into a massive project. What was supposed to be a 2-day job turned into 4 days of them working morning till night. They stayed until it was done right, they were extremely polite and knowledgeable the whole time, and there was zero upcharge for the extra days of labor.
Jack, Jacob, and Sean are the absolute stars of the show here. These guys are who you want to work on your home, period. -

I’ve had Mass Save energy audits in the past, but my experience with Colt Home Services was by far the most informative. Joe arrived right on time and conducted … Read More a very thorough assessment.

Trang M
The review/ estimation process was quick, easy and straight forward. But during the actual work, since our house is brick outside, they drilled holes inside, yet … Read More they often skipped pumping the insulation materials and just covered the holes. After finding out, we had to monitor their crew all the way until the project finished to ensure they do not skip!★★★★★ 7 months ago
We didn't notice at first, so our second floor properly just got 70% of the supposed insulation....
So you want to make sure to monitor/follow the project.
- edit: the customer service is super helpful and listening to our concerns. They want to come for quality check and provide any reparations if necessary.
-edit 2: after the QC visit, the team agreed that we indeed needed improvement! And they came back for the work within the week. We are very happy with the service this time.
Updated the rating from 3 -> 4 -> 5 star now -
