Garbage Disposal Repair & Installation pricing

$539–$897

Integrity-supplied standard disposal, installed

A jammed disposal and a failed motor need different solutions. We check the unit and its drain connections before pricing the work.

Scope to compare: The main range is for selected standard disposal replacements supplied by Integrity. Installation of a disposal you buy is shown separately. A jam, drain obstruction or electrical problem may need different work from replacing the unit.

Use these ranges to plan for the work described. Published planning ranges start at $250 or higher; third-party leak locating starts at $450. Equipment, access and added work can change the total. They are not a quote, and some projects fall outside them. We will look at the job, explain your options, and give you a written price before work begins.

Garbage Disposal Repair: Our Process

From a simple jam to a complete replacement, we follow a thorough process to get your kitchen sink back to working order.

  1. 1

    Diagnose the Problem

    Our plumber inspects the disposal to determine the cause of the issue. We check for jams, electrical problems, worn grinding components, leaking seals, and drain connection issues. We also inspect the connected plumbing to make sure the problem is not coming from somewhere else in the kitchen drain line.

  2. 2

    Present Your Options

    We explain exactly what is wrong and present you with clear repair or replacement options with transparent pricing. If your disposal is older and repair costs are approaching the price of a new unit, we will let you know so you can make the best decision for your budget.

  3. 3

    Repair or Replace

    If a repair will solve the problem, our technician completes it on the spot. If a replacement is the better option, we remove the old unit and install a new one, ensuring proper connections to both the electrical supply and the drain line. We carry popular disposal models on our trucks for same day installation.

  4. 4

    Test and Clean Up

    We test the disposal with water running to confirm proper operation and check all connections for leaks. We clean the work area and provide tips on proper disposal usage to help extend the life of your unit.

General Plumbing Issues and Solutions for Your Kitchen

Expert garbage disposal repair and general plumbing repairs from your nearby plumbing services team.

Common Garbage Disposal Problems

The most common disposal issues we encounter in West Palm Beach homes include units that hum but do not spin, which typically indicates a jammed flywheel. Leaking from the bottom usually means the internal seal has failed, and this requires a full replacement. A disposal that trips its reset button frequently often has a failing motor. Slow draining after running the disposal can indicate a clog in the discharge pipe or the connected drain line. Our team has seen and fixed every one of these problems.

Repair or Replace: Making the Right Call

Garbage disposals typically last about 8 to 12 years with proper use. If your unit is within that range and the repair is minor, fixing it makes sense. However, if the motor is failing, the internal components are heavily corroded, or the unit is leaking from the body, a new disposal is the smarter investment. Modern units are quieter, more powerful, and more energy efficient than older models. We help you choose the right size and power level for your household needs.

Tips to Keep Your Disposal Running Smoothly

Proper use is the best way to avoid disposal problems. Always run cold water before, during, and after using the disposal. Avoid putting fibrous foods like celery, corn husks, or artichoke leaves into the unit. Never pour cooking grease or oil down the drain, as it solidifies and causes clogs. Cut larger food scraps into smaller pieces before feeding them into the disposal. Running a few ice cubes through the unit once a month helps clean the grinding components and keep things fresh.

Choosing the Right Garbage Disposal for Your West Palm Beach Kitchen

Brands, horsepower, and the small details that decide how long a disposal lasts.

Brands and horsepower that matter

Most homes do fine with a half-horsepower or three-quarter horsepower disposal. Half-horsepower is the entry level and works for kitchens with light to moderate use. Three-quarter horsepower handles the bigger families and the homes that put more through the sink. One horsepower is overkill for most homes but worth it if you have a busy household or you put a lot of food waste through the disposal. We install InSinkErator, Waste King, and Moen disposals most often, and we pick the brand based on the noise level you want, the warranty length, and how long you plan to be in the home.

Signs your disposal is ready for replacement

A disposal that needs to be reset more than once a month is a disposal on its way out. Strange smells that do not respond to ice cubes and citrus peels point to a worn grind chamber. Visible rust under the unit means the internal seal has corroded and water has been collecting where it should not. Frequent jams on normal food waste mean the impeller is dull. Most disposals last 8 to 12 years in a typical West Palm Beach kitchen. If yours is past 10 and you are seeing any of these signs, replacement is usually the right call.

The food rules every homeowner should know

Almost every disposal failure we see traces back to food choices. Do not put fibrous foods (celery, corn husks, artichoke leaves, banana peels) through the disposal. The fibers wrap around the impeller and seize it. Do not put cooking grease or oil down any sink, with or without a disposal. Grease cools fast and clogs the drain line downstream of the disposal. Do not put coffee grounds in either, they accumulate like sediment. Do feed the disposal cold water before, during, and 30 seconds after each use. Ice cubes once a month help clean the grind chamber.

Why professional install matters

A garbage disposal install looks simple on paper. In practice it involves an electrical connection, a dishwasher drain line, a properly sized mounting flange, a P-trap, and getting the discharge angle right so food slurry flows downstream instead of pooling. Most DIY installs we get called out to repair have a leak at the mounting flange, a backed-up dishwasher drain, or an electrical splice that was not done to code. We install to code, pressure test, and verify the dishwasher drain hookup before we leave. Most installs take an hour and the disposal is ready to use the same day.
