A garbage disposal grinds food waste into fine particles that pass through your plumbing, reducing trash and odors. Modern disposals are quiet, efficient, and essential for busy kitchens. If yours is slow, makes noise, leaks, or has stopped working, we repair or replace it quickly, often the same day.

The Details

What You Need to Know

Disposals come in two types: batch feed (requires a stopper to activate, safer) and continuous feed (activated by foot switch or motion sensor, more convenient). Horsepower ranges from 0.5 HP (light use) to 1.5 HP (heavy families). We install InSinkErator, Waste King, and Badger brand units — all reliable, quiet, and backed by warranties.

Common disposal problems include jams from foreign objects (bones, hard seeds, non-food items), leaks at seals or drain connections, rattling from loose components, or complete motor failure. Many issues are fixable without replacement. We safely remove jams, tighten connections, and replace worn seals. If the motor has failed, replacement is typically most cost-effective.

Proper disposal use extends life: feed smaller amounts of soft food waste, avoid putting bones/hard items down the drain, run cold water while grinding, and clean periodically with baking soda and vinegar. Avoid putting cooking grease, fibrous vegetables, or non-food items in the disposal.

Got Questions?

Garbage Disposal Installation & Repair FAQ

?How much does garbage disposal installation cost?
Standard disposal unit (InSinkErator): $100-$300. Installation labor: $200-$400. Premium units: $400-$800. Total installed: $300-$1,000 depending on unit quality and any additional plumbing work.
?What should I not put in a garbage disposal?
Avoid: bones, corn husks, celery, asparagus, rice, pasta, cooking grease, coffee grounds (in large amounts), and non-food items like plastic or glass. Most soft food waste, fruit, and vegetable scraps are fine.
?Why is my disposal leaking?
Common causes: worn rubber seals, loose mounting bolts, or cracks in the disposal housing. If seals are worn, we replace them ($100-$250). If the housing is cracked, replacement is needed.
?My disposal is jammed — is it fixable?
Usually yes. We use a disposal wrench or pliers to manually turn the grinding ring, dislodging the jam without damage. Common causes: bones, non-food items, or excessive food buildup. Clearing costs $150-$300.
?How long do garbage disposals last?
Quality disposals (InSinkErator, Waste King) last 8-15 years with proper use and maintenance. Cheaper models fail faster. We recommend replacement if repairs exceed 50% of a new unit's cost.
