Garbage Disposal Repair in Austin, TX

Garbage disposals are one of the most frequently used — and most frequently neglected — appliances in Austin kitchens. From family homes to rental units and busy apartment kitchens, everyday wear, foreign‑object jams, failing motors, and worn mounts all cause clogs, odors, leaks, and noisy operation. When a disposal stalls or hums but won’t run, or when the sink backs up after running the unit, a quick, knowledgeable inspection can prevent a costly replacement and stop water damage under the sink.

PlumbingPro Austin handles disposal problems across the city with a diagnostics‑first approach. We begin at the sink: test electrical and switch function, clear jams safely, inspect mounting and flange seals, and verify dishwasher and drain connections so the whole system works together. When replacement is the best value, we offer clean, code‑compliant installs of quiet, higher‑efficiency units and leave the area tidy and odor‑free.

Garbage‑disposal repair & replacement workflow On arrival we perform a short diagnostic: check power and reset, test for motor humming or binding, inspect the mounting flange and seals, and verify dishwasher/drain connections. For repairs we clear jams safely, replace cords or switches, resecure mounts, and replace worn splash guards or flanges. When replacement is warranted we uninstall the old unit, install a new model using a heavy‑duty mounting ring and new gasket, reconnect the dishwasher line, wire the disposal safely or fit a new cord kit, and run a full operational and leak test. Every job ends with a walkthrough, care tips to avoid future jams, and written warranty details.
