Swapping out an old, corroded, or underpowered unit for a properly sized replacement matched to your household's usage.
Replacement makes sense when a unit's motor has failed, its housing has corroded through, or it's simply underpowered for how the kitchen actually gets used. Rather than repairing the same underlying limitation, we remove the old unit and install a properly sized replacement — matched to your household size and usage, not just whatever happens to be the cheapest option on the shelf.
Because the mounting assembly and plumbing connections are usually already in place from the old unit, most replacements go faster than a from-scratch installation. We'll flag anything that needs upgrading — an aging P-trap, a mounting ring showing wear, or wiring that doesn't meet current standards — before starting, not as a surprise afterward.
Tell us what's happening — humming, leaking, or dead — and we'll give you a same-day or next-day appointment window.
A technician identifies the actual cause (jam, seal failure, motor fault, wiring issue) before recommending repair vs. replacement.
You get a clear price before any work begins — repair or new unit installation, no surprise add-ons after the fact.
Most repairs and standard installations are completed in a single visit, using a properly sized unit when replacement is the better option.
Every unit is run under water and tested for leaks, noise, and full drainage before we consider the job finished.
Most disposal repairs cost less than a full replacement — we'll always tell you honestly which one makes more sense for your unit's age and condition.
| Service | Typical Price | What Affects It |
|---|---|---|
| Diagnostic visit / minor repair (reset, jam clearing) | $95–$175 | Most single-visit repair calls |
| Seal, gasket, or leak repair | $150–$275 | Depends on whether the flange or housing seal needs replacing |
| Motor or wiring repair | $175–$350 | If the unit is repairable rather than needing replacement |
| Standard disposal installation (customer-supplied unit) | $150–$250 | Labor only, existing under-sink plumbing |
| Full replacement (unit + installation) | $300–$600 | Varies by horsepower and whether new wiring or plumbing is needed |
Ranges are estimates for typical jobs. Final pricing is confirmed on-site before work begins.
