Local Knowledge

Garbage Disposals in Hinsdale Kitchens

Many Hinsdale kitchens have more than one sink, and some have more than one disposal.

Prep Sinks and Islands

A second disposal in a prep sink drains through its own line, which can clog separately.

Quiet, High-Power Units

Many homeowners upgrade to quieter, more powerful models during a remodel.

Dishwasher Connections

The dishwasher usually drains through the disposal, so a clog affects both.

Instant Hot Water Dispensers

Many Hinsdale kitchens have a hot water dispenser next to the disposal. We service both while we're under the sink.

Pricing

What Affects the Price of a Disposal Job

A straight replacement is quick. Upgrading to a larger or quieter model, adding a disposal to a prep sink or changing the drain adds time. We look under the sink and quote one flat price.

Garbage Disposal Questions From Hinsdale Homeowners

Usually a jam.

Usually something is stuck. Turn it off and don't keep running it. Try the reset button and the hex key under the unit. If it won't turn, call us.

If the housing leaks or it's over 10 years old, replace it.

If it leaks from the body or is more than about 10 years old, a new unit is usually the better choice.

Usually, if there's power and drain space.

Usually. We need power under the sink and enough room for the unit and drain connections.

They share the same drain.

The dishwasher usually drains through the disposal. When the disposal or the drain past it clogs, the dishwasher can't empty.
