About Our Garbage Disposal Repair Service
We start by checking your disposal’s power, motor, reset system, and impeller movement to find the true cause of the problem not just clear the jam.
Once diagnosed, our technician explains the issue, shows you what failed, and performs the repair using OEM parts or installs a new disposal if replacement is the smarter choice.
Every job ends with a leak test, drain check, and noise test to ensure your sink runs quietly and safely.
