How it works
Disconnect and remove
We shut off power, remove the old unit from the mounting ring, and disconnect the drain plumbing.
Mount and wire
We attach the new disposal to the sink flange, connect the wiring, and hook up the drain to the P-trap.
Test it out
We run water through the disposal, check under the sink for any drips, and confirm the power switch operates correctly.
Problems we fix
- Disposal that hums but won't spin — a jammed flywheel that often can't be cleared
- Unit that leaks at the sink flange or at the drain connection
- Disposal that trips its reset immediately — a sign of a failed motor
- Slow kitchen drain caused by a clogged disposal baffle
- Older units in need of replacement after years of normal wear
Garbage Disposal Installation in Columbia — FAQ
Do I need to buy the new disposal before you arrive?
You can bring your own or we can bring a standard residential unit. If you have a specific horsepower preference or brand in mind, purchasing ahead of time makes scheduling smoother.
Can you install a disposal where there isn't one currently?
If there's an existing drain opening in the sink and an outlet or wiring under the counter, yes. More involved work (adding an outlet or cutting a new drain hole) is flagged at assessment.
How long do garbage disposals typically last?
Most disposals last 8–15 years with normal use. Putting fibrous foods, bones, and grease down the unit shortens that significantly — we'll share simple tips when we finish the install.
Garbage Disposal Installation across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
