Garbage Disposal Repair

Local plumbers in our network handle the full range of disposal problems, from clearing jams and hitting the reset on a unit that hums but won't grind, to diagnosing a motor that has no power. They also fix leaks at the flange and drain connection, and replace units that are past saving. Whatever's wrong under your sink, there's a pro who can sort it out.

Minor cases are fine to try yourself, like pressing the reset button or freeing a simple jam with the unit powered off. But if it hums but won't grind after a reset, has no power, or is leaking under the sink, call a professional, because a leaking disposal can quietly damage the cabinet below. When in doubt, a local pro will diagnose it safely.

Costs vary based on the problem, the unit, and whether it can be repaired or needs replacing. A simple jam clearing or reset typically runs $80 to $150, while replacing a leaking or failed disposal runs $250 to $550 including the new unit. Our pros provide an upfront estimate before any work begins.
