Garbage disposal repair and replacement in Los Angeles

A disposal that hums is jammed; a disposal that is silent has tripped its reset or lost power; a disposal that leaks has a failed seal or a cracked housing. The technician tells you in minutes whether it is a five-minute fix or a replacement.

Jams and resets

Most jams clear with the hex key from below and a reset. If the flywheel is damaged or the motor has burned out, replacement is the right call — and it is usually less than an hour of work.

Leaks and replacements

Leaks from the top are the sink flange; from the side, the drain or dishwasher connection; from the bottom, a failed internal seal, which means replacement. We install new units with the dishwasher and drain connections.

What the technician checks

  • Power, reset button and switch
  • Flywheel and impellers for jams
  • Motor condition
  • Sink flange, gaskets and housing
  • Drain and dishwasher connections
  • Mounting assembly

Price and warranty

The service call is $69 and is applied to the repair when you go ahead. After the diagnosis you get the price for parts and labor up front, and nothing is done until you approve it. Every repair carries a 90-day warranty on parts and labor; sealed-system repairs on refrigeration and HVAC carry 6 months; HVAC installations carry 1 year. Seniors and military — mention it when you book.
