Garbage Disposal Replacement FAQ
Quick answers before you call.
How long does the swap take?
Usually under an hour for a like-for-like replacement. Add 15–30 minutes if mounting flange or drain tailpiece needs work.
What size unit do I need?
Light kitchen use: 1/3 HP. Most homes: 3/4 HP. Heavy use or septic-friendly: 1 HP. We size based on your actual cooking habits, not the biggest unit on the shelf.
Do you warranty the work?
Yes. 1-year workmanship warranty on every install and repair — if it fails because of how we did it, we come back and fix it. Equipment carries manufacturer warranty (typically 6–12 years depending on unit), which we register at install.
