Garbage Disposal Installation — Greater Seattle
New disposal or replacement — installed right
Need a New Garbage Disposal?
Whether your old disposal has stopped working, is leaking, or you’re installing one for the first time, Done Right Plumbing provides professional garbage disposal installation throughout the greater Seattle area.
A garbage disposal is one of those appliances you don’t think about until it fails — and then you realize how much you rely on it. We’ll get your new unit installed quickly so you can get back to your routine.
Signs You Need a New Garbage Disposal
If you’re experiencing any of these problems, it may be time for a replacement:
- ✓Disposal won’t turn on — even after resetting the unit
- ✓It hums but doesn’t grind — the motor runs but the blades are stuck or broken
- ✓Frequent clogs — food isn’t being ground up properly
- ✓Leaking from the bottom — usually means internal seals have failed (not repairable)
- ✓Persistent odor — that cleaning doesn’t fix
- ✓Loud grinding or rattling — worn components or something stuck inside
- ✓The unit is 10+ years old — older disposals become less efficient and more prone to problems
What We Install
We install all major garbage disposal brands and can recommend the right size and power for your household’s needs:
Standard Disposals
Reliable, mid-range units suitable for most households. Good grinding power for everyday food waste.
High-Powered Disposals
Larger motors (¾ HP to 1 HP) for families that cook frequently or generate more food waste. Better at handling tough scraps.
Quiet Disposals
Insulated units that minimize noise — ideal for open floor plans where the kitchen isn’t separated from living areas.

Disposal Tips to Keep It Running
Once your new disposal is installed, a few simple habits will keep it running for years:
- ✓Run cold water — while grinding and for 15 seconds after
- ✓Avoid grease and oil — they solidify and cause clogs
- ✓Skip the fibrous foods — celery, corn husks, and onion skins can jam the blades
- ✓No bones or fruit pits — these are too hard for most disposals
- ✓Clean it occasionally — ice cubes and citrus peels help clear buildup and odors

FAQs About Garbage Disposal Installation
How much does garbage disposal installation cost in Lynnwood?
Installation costs depend on whether you’re replacing an existing unit (simpler) or installing one for the first time (may require electrical work). We always provide upfront pricing before we start. Call us at 425-245-7552 for a free estimate.
Can you install a garbage disposal same day?
Yes — we often do same-day garbage disposal installations throughout the Lynnwood and Everett area. Most installations take 1–2 hours.
What size garbage disposal do I need?
For most households, a ½ HP disposal is sufficient. If you cook frequently or have a large family, a ¾ HP or 1 HP unit handles tougher food waste more easily. We’ll help you choose the right size.
Can you fix a jammed garbage disposal?
Sometimes, yes. If the disposal is relatively new and just jammed, we can often clear it and get it working again. But if it’s failing frequently or is 10+ years old, replacement usually makes more sense.
Do you haul away the old disposal?
Yes — we handle removal and disposal of your old unit as part of the installation.
