Kitchen sink and disposal replacement

The problem

The kitchen had a worn double-bowl undermount sink set into a granite countertop, and the garbage disposal under it was due for replacement.

What we did

We took the old sink out without damaging the granite, set a new single-bowl stainless undermount sink, and installed a new faucet and disposal. Then we plumbed the drain, sealed everything and tested it with the water running.

The result

One large basin, a new faucet and a working disposal. The homeowner said the estimate was on target, too.

“First time using A1 and I can’t say enough positive. Andy came within the hour that I called to unclog a basement floor drain. He was very thorough and checked to make sure the blockage was not coming from more than one area. He cleaned it out in a short time, got things moving and had good suggestions to help minimize future problems. Reasonable charges for good work and an honest pleasant person. Highly recommended.”

“Fantastic service! Called, told him the bottom of my water heater is leaking, sent him pics of everything and he was out the next day replacing it at a reasonable price! Highly recommend 👌 Thank you!”

“10 Stars if I could. Coming from someone who builds systems and processes for a 9 figure company, Andy does it all right and keeps it simple. Easy to find in search, stands out in reviews, easy to see why. Answered the phone 8am first try, flexible to when I needed, arrived within hours of first contact. Followups easy in text. Got pertinent info, walked the house, got to work, fixed it and another issue after quick run to store for parts. More than reasonable price. In my phone for next time if I ever need it! Thanks Andy!”
