A jammed or leaking disposal disrupts your kitchen routine. Our Tempe plumbers repair and install disposals from all major brands, often same-day.
Disposals commonly fail from a jam, a worn seal causing leaks, or a burned-out motor — all made worse over time by mineral scale from hard water building up around moving parts.
We diagnose and repair most disposal issues on the spot, and for units over 8-10 years old, replacement is often more cost-effective than continued repairs.
Most disposal issues are resolved the same visit.
We service and install disposals from every major manufacturer.

If your disposal is under 5 years old and the issue is a simple jam or reset, repair usually makes sense. Beyond 8-10 years, especially with repeated issues, replacement is often the more cost-effective choice.
Newer disposals also run quieter and handle tougher food waste more efficiently than older models.
Cost depends on the issue — clearing a jam is inexpensive, a full replacement costs more. We provide an estimate first.
Usually something is jamming the flywheel, causing the motor to overheat and trip the safety switch.
Most disposal installations take under an hour.
