Fast garbage disposal repair across San Diego

A dead or leaking garbage disposal brings the whole kitchen to a stop. Easy Break gets it sorted quickly: we diagnose the unit under your sink, tell you whether it's a five‑minute fix or a replacement, and give you the price before we touch a wrench. Most San Diego disposal calls are handled the same day.

We service every common brand — InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, Waste Maid and KitchenAid — and if yours is past saving, we'll supply and fit a new one, haul the old unit away, and test the drain before we leave.

Common disposal problems we fix

  • Humming but not spinning — usually a jam; we free the flywheel and reset it
  • Totally dead / won't turn on — tripped reset, wiring or a burnt‑out motor
  • Leaking — from the sink flange, the dishwasher hose, or the body of the unit
  • Draining slowly or backing up — clog at the disposal or trap
  • Loud rattling — a foreign object or worn grinding components

Repair or replace? We'll tell you straight

If your disposal is under ~7 years old and the motor still runs, a repair usually makes sense. If it's older, leaking from the body, or the motor's burnt out, a replacement is the smarter spend — a new unit is quieter and comes with its own warranty. We'll give you the honest call and the cost of each, with no pressure to upsell.

Garbage disposal FAQ

Why is my garbage disposal humming but not working?
A hum with no spinning almost always means the flywheel is jammed by a foreign object. We clear the jam, free the flywheel and hit the reset — most are fixed the same visit. If the motor is burnt out it will need replacing, and we'll quote that upfront.
Should I repair or replace my garbage disposal?
If the unit is under about 7 years old and the motor runs, repair is usually worth it. If it's older, leaking from the body, or the motor is dead, replacing it is the better value — and a new disposal is quieter and comes with a warranty. We'll give you both prices and an honest recommendation.
How much does it cost to replace a garbage disposal in San Diego?
Replacement labor starts at $169 if you supply the unit, or from $279 with a quality 1/2–3/4 HP disposal supplied and fitted, old unit hauled away.
Can you come the same day?
Usually yes — we keep same‑day and next‑day slots open across San Diego County. Text a photo under your sink early in the day for the best chance at a same‑day fix.
Do you remove the old disposal?
Yes, we haul away the old unit and clean up under the sink as part of every replacement.
