Do You Need A New Garbage Disposal?

Sometimes a garbage disposal can be repaired if the issue is small and it still makes sense to fix it. Other times, replacement ends up being the more practical option, especially since most units only last about 10 to 15 years anyway. Over time, certain issues tend to show up, including:

  • Leaks around the sink, dishwasher, or floor

  • Regular clogs

  • Frequent power disconnects

  • Unusual grinding sounds

  • Foul odors

One of the more common problems is water leaking from the bottom of the unit, which usually points to something internal like a worn seal. When that happens, it’s often not something that improves with time, and replacement is usually considered instead of repeated repairs. If it gets to that point, it’s better to have it looked at sooner rather than letting it continue and lead to other plumbing issues later on.

Garbage Disposal Systems We Install in Fallbrook, CA:

Continuous-Feed Garbage Disposals

Continuous feed garbage disposals are the most commonly installed type of unit in many homes today. If your existing disposal stops working, our team can professionally install a replacement regardless of the motor size you choose. Once the drain connection is completed, the system operates through a wall switch that keeps the disposal running continuously while in use. For households with busy kitchens and frequent food waste, this style of garbage disposal is often a practical and dependable choice.

Convenient and easy to use during meal prep and cleanup

Wide variety of models and price points available

Open drain during operation requires more caution to avoid accidents

Batch-Feed Garbage Disposals

Even though batch-feed garbage disposals are seen less often, they remain a popular choice for homeowners looking for a safer and quieter kitchen disposal system. The disposal is activated by inserting a specially designed stopper into the drain opening and turning it into place. This setup allows the unit to run only when the opening is covered, helping improve safety while also reducing the amount of noise produced during operation.

Safer operation with covered drain during use

Quieter performance compared to continuous-feed models

Less convenient for processing large amounts of waste at once

Frequently Asked Questions

Waterfront Plumbing provides expert garbage disposal installation and repair services throughout more than 10 communities in Southern California, including: and more! Contact us to see if we service your zip code.

If your garbage disposal suddenly stops working or begins causing serious leaks, our team is available 24/7 to arrange an emergency service appointment. We also respond to urgent plumbing situations involving burst pipes, gas leaks, and water-damaged slabs.

As long as the existing plumbing is in good condition, we can usually complete the installation of your new garbage disposal within a few hours.

The installation process begins by applying plumber’s putty around the sink flange before placing it securely into the drain opening from above the sink. Underneath the sink, a rubber gasket is fitted onto the flange, followed by the lower mounting ring, which is tightened into place using mounting screws to create a stable connection.

After that, the electrical wires are guided through the cable connector on the disposal unit and the protective electrical cover plate is secured over the connection area. The garbage disposal is then lifted into position and rotated onto the mounting assembly until it locks firmly into place.

If the kitchen setup includes a dishwasher connection, the internal knockout plug is removed before the dishwasher inlet hose is attached. Finally, the drain trap is connected to the disposal discharge outlet so wastewater can flow properly through the plumbing system.

Based on the model you choose and how frequently the system is used, your new garbage disposal can generally be expected to last anywhere from 10 to 15 years.

In most situations, yes. Before beginning the installation, we will first verify that there is enough space beneath the sink and that a proper electrical connection is available for the new unit.

Yes, although not every garbage disposal is ideal for septic systems. We typically recommend septic-safe models that are specifically built to process food waste into smaller particles that are easier for the system to handle. Our team can guide you toward the right disposal unit and ensure it is installed properly for long-term performance.

In general, it is best to keep grease, bones, fibrous vegetables, coffee grounds, and pasta out of your garbage disposal, since these materials are common causes of clogs, jams, and internal damage. After your new unit is installed, we will also go over proper usage and maintenance tips to help maximize its lifespan and performance.

Our team at Waterfront Plumbing specializes in a wide variety of water, sewer, and gas plumbing services, from repairing valves and detecting leaks to installing tankless water heaters and connecting gas lines. We also provide hydro jetting services, a highly sought-after option for deep plumbing system cleaning and maintenance.

The price of garbage disposal installations can vary based on factors such as the motor size, power source, and the existing plumbing configuration beneath the sink. Contact us directly and we will be happy to provide an estimate for your installation.
