Our Disposal Process
Diagnose: Repair vs Replace
Budget Plumbers checks if it's a reset, jam, or dead motor. Many units can be saved. Replacement only when it makes sense.
Disconnect Old Unit
Power disconnected safely, drain disconnected, old unit unbolted and removed.
Mount & Connect New Unit
New disposal mounted to sink flange, dishwasher drain connected, electrical verified.
Run & Test
Water run, disposal cycled, drain flow confirmed. We test before we leave. Every time.
