A disposal that just hums without spinning, one that trips the reset button repeatedly, or water pooling under the sink from a leaking seal — disposal problems range from a simple jam to a unit that's reached the end of its life. Our Knightsen technicians diagnose and carry common replacement units on the truck.
If a disposal is old and the repair cost approaches replacement cost, we'll tell you honestly instead of patching it.
Disposal work involves both plumbing and electrical connections — our Knightsen technicians are trained and insured for both.
Trucks staged across Knightsen mean disposal calls aren't pushed behind bigger jobs.
Pricing is confirmed upfront whether it's a jam clearing or a full unit swap.
From a simple jammed flywheel to a full unit replacement, we diagnose before recommending the fix.
We clear the jam and test the unit through a full cycle before considering the job done.
{A motor that's overheating, tripping the reset repeatedly, or making grinding noises gets diagnosed for repair versus replacement.|We test motor function and electrical connections together, since either can cause similar symptoms.}
New disposal installation includes checking the electrical connection and drain alignment, not just swapping the unit.
Water pooling under the sink often traces to a worn seal or gasket in the disposal, repaired or the unit resealed.
A disposal that keeps tripping its reset button or the circuit breaker gets a full electrical diagnosis, not just a reset and hope.
We check whether the odor is actually the disposal or a trap issue further down the line.
Describe the symptoms to dispatch — humming, tripping, leaking, or completely dead — to help route the right service.
Trucks stocked with common replacement units mean same-visit resolution in most cases.
The disposal is diagnosed, and you'll get an honest repair-versus-replace recommendation with a flat price.
The repair or new unit is installed and tested through a full cycle, backed by a written warranty.

A humming motor with no spin is the classic sign of a mechanical jam, not usually a motor failure.
We compare repair cost against a new unit's cost and lifespan so you can decide with real information.
Pricing is confirmed after diagnosis, whether it's a simple clear or a new unit installation.
Repeated tripping deserves a real electrical check, not just resetting it and hoping it stops.
Not always — sometimes it's just a worn seal or gasket that can be repaired without replacing the whole unit.
We'll check that your chosen unit is a good fit before installation day.
