Garbage Disposal Repair

A jammed, leaking, or dead garbage disposal is more than an inconvenience — it can lead to foul odors, slow drainage, and even plumbing backups if not addressed. Our technicians repair and replace garbage disposals quickly, typically in under an hour, so your kitchen sink returns to full function.

In the San Gabriel Valley, garbage disposals are standard in most kitchens and see heavy daily use. Older homes in El Monte, La Puente, and Baldwin Park sometimes have disposals with outdated wiring or worn-out motors that need replacement rather than repair. Newer developments in Walnut and Rowland Heights typically feature stronger units, but improper use — feeding bones, fibrous vegetables, or grease down the drain — is the leading cause of jams and failures regardless of the home's age.

North County San Diego homes experience similar disposal issues, with the added factor of hard water mineral buildup inside the grinding chamber and drain connections. In Escondido, Vista, and San Marcos, we frequently clear mineral-crusted drain fittings that reduce flow and contribute to odors. Premium homes in Carlsbad and Encinitas often have high-powered InSinkErator Evolution or Waste King models that can still fail from foreign objects or electrical issues. We service all brands and horsepower ratings.
