A: If your disposal does nothing when you flip the switch, the most common causes are a tripped reset button (the red button on the bottom of the unit), a tripped breaker, a stuck impeller, or a burnt-out motor. For Beacon Square homeowners, start by pressing the reset button. If it hums without spinning, something is jammed and the motor will burn out if you keep trying. We will diagnose and fix or replace on the spot, usually $279 to $450.

A: If your disposal is less than 5 years old and the jam is mechanical, repair usually makes sense.

We help you pick based on household size and what actually goes down the drain.

Coastal galvanic wear hits the grind chamber and the motor housing bottom. Upgrading to a stainless steel grind chamber on a 1 HP Evolution Excel adds about $120 in parts but adds 3 to 4 years of usable service life. For homes within 2 miles of the Gulf, we recommend the stainless upgrade by default.

A: Roughly one in three Beacon Square homes from the 1978 to 1995 build window still has original polybutylene supply lines, often hidden until we open up the under-sink area for a disposal swap.

PB lines fail unpredictably, so transitioning when we are already under the sink is the right call.
