Overview

Garbage disposal repair and replacement

A disposal that jams, leaks or trips its reset every week is usually telling you the unit or the drain behind it needs attention.

We diagnose the actual cause, clear the line if it is part of the problem, and repair or replace with a unit sized for your kitchen.

  • Jam and reset problems
  • Leaking housing or flange
  • Motor and switch failures
  • New disposal installation
  • Kitchen drain clearing
  • Sink and trap plumbing

Warning Signs

Signs your disposal needs service

Most of these get worse fast if the drain behind it is involved.

Humming, not grindingA hum with no grind means the motor is jammed and it will overheat.
Water under the sinkAny moisture in the cabinet means the flange or housing is leaking.
Tripping the resetRepeat resets point to a failing motor or a chronic blockage.
Persistent odorSmell that returns after cleaning usually means buildup in the drain line.
Slow to clearA sink that backs up while grinding is a drain problem, not a disposal problem.
Loud rattlingMetal-on-metal noise means something is loose or the impellers are damaged.

Why It Happens

Why disposals fail early

What goes down them matters most. Grease, fibrous peels, coffee grounds and eggshells all build up in the chamber and the branch line behind it.

Hard well water plays a part too. Mineral scale coats the grinding ring and the drain wall, so the same unit works harder every year.

Finally, undersized units in busy kitchens simply wear out. A half-horsepower unit on a family kitchen will jam long before a properly sized one does.

Cost Factors

What affects the cost

Drain work neededIf the branch line has to be cleared, that is added to the visit clearly.
Sink and cabinet accessDeep cabinets, stone counters and dishwasher tie-ins add labor time.
