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 Cohoes technicians diagnose and carry common replacement units on the truck.
We give you real numbers on both options so you can decide, not just push the more profitable one.
Disposal work involves both plumbing and electrical connections — our Cohoes technicians are trained and insured for both.
Trucks staged across Cohoes 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.
A disposal that hums but won't spin usually has something lodged in the flywheel, cleared safely with the power disconnected first.
{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.
We check the wiring and connection, not just the reset button, to find the actual cause of repeated tripping.
Persistent odors from the disposal are addressed with a proper flush and inspection of the drain trap beyond the unit itself.
A quick call gets a technician scheduled with common disposal parts on hand.
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.
"Unit was over 12 years old and they told me honestly replacement made more sense than repair." — Homeowner, Cohoes
"Leak under the sink turned out to be the disposal seal, not the drain pipe I assumed." — Cohoes resident
"New unit installed same day after the old one finally gave out. Quiet and works great." — Cohoes customer

A humming motor with no spin is the classic sign of a mechanical jam, not usually a motor failure.
Units past 8-10 years with a significant failure often make more sense to replace — we'll give you honest numbers on both.
Pricing is confirmed after diagnosis, whether it's a simple clear or a new unit installation.
Often an electrical issue or an overloaded motor from grinding something too tough — we diagnose which it is.
Not always — sometimes it's just a worn seal or gasket that can be repaired without replacing the whole unit.
Yes, we install customer-supplied disposals as long as they're properly sized for your sink and usage.
