A garbage disposal that hums, jams, leaks or has quit entirely is a quick fix for a professional and a daily frustration for you. Done right, sealed, mounted and connected properly, it is a job that lasts; done poorly, it is the leak under the sink six months later.
ASL Plumbing repairs and installs garbage disposals across Orange County, with upfront pricing and clean, code-compliant work. Whether it is a jam, a leak or a full replacement, we handle it in a single visit in most cases.
Garbage disposal services
Jammed or humming units
A disposal that hums but will not turn usually has a jam or a seized motor. We can often free a jam and get it running; if the motor has failed, we will tell you before replacing it.
Leaking disposals
Leaks can come from the seals, the mounting ring, the drain connections or the unit body. We find the exact source and fix it properly, rather than just tightening and hoping.
Failed or old units
When a disposal has stopped working, is badly corroded, or is simply old and noisy, we install a properly sized replacement and haul away the old one.
New installations
Adding a disposal where there was not one before, tied into your plumbing and electrical to code, including the switch and drain connections.
Signs your disposal needs service
- It hums but does not spin
- It will not turn on at all
- Water leaking underneath the sink
- Persistent odor that cleaning does not fix
- Loud grinding or rattling
- Frequent jams or clogs
Why a proper install matters
A garbage disposal is a small job, but the small jobs are where corner-cutting shows up later. An improperly sealed or mounted unit leaks slowly under the sink, feeding mold and warping the cabinet base before you notice. Overloaded or wrongly wired units fail early. Doing it right the first time, correctly sealed, properly mounted and connected to code, is what prevents the callback and the water damage, and it is exactly the care we bring to every disposal we touch.
How our garbage disposal works
We determine whether the unit can be repaired or is better replaced, and explain the reasoning honestly rather than defaulting to a new unit.
You get the price before we start, with free estimates and no pressure.
We complete the work to code, seal and test it, and clean up. We guarantee our work.
