A disposal problem in a condo isn't just a kitchen problem
Most disposal calls we get sound the same: it hums but won't spin, it trips the reset button every time you use it, it's started leaking under the sink, or there's a smell the sink-cleaner aisle can't touch. Some of those are five-minute fixes — a jammed flywheel cleared properly is one of the cheapest service calls in plumbing. One of them is terminal: a leak from the bottom of the housing means the internal seal is gone, and that unit is done. We tell you which case you have on the spot, not after the work.
In Miami Beach the stakes are higher than the appliance. An under-sink leak you don't catch runs into the cabinet, then the floor, and in a condo, eventually the unit below you — and that conversation costs a lot more than a disposal. A plumber comes out, diagnoses the actual problem for a flat $175, and gives you the complete price — repair vs. replace, parts and labor itemized — before touching anything. You pay when the work is done. No billing.
What we handle
-
Jams & resets
Humming motors, seized flywheels, units that trip the reset or the breaker — cleared and tested, often in one short visit.
-
Leak diagnosis
We find exactly where the water comes from. Top flange and connection leaks are usually repairable; a bottom-seal leak means replacement, and we'll say so plainly.
-
Replacement & upsizing
Like-for-like swaps, or a step up to a quieter, higher-horsepower unit that jams less.
-
New installation where none existed
We handle the plumbing side; electrical circuit and switch work may need an electrician depending on your kitchen.
-
Drain connection & air gap issues
Dishwasher hookups, backed-up drain lines, and air gap problems that masquerade as disposal failures.
Equipment we install & trust
We install all major brands — including InSinkErator and Moen. Bought one already? We'll install it. If you'd rather have a recommendation, we'll match horsepower and size to your cabinet, your drain setup, and how your kitchen actually gets used — not whatever happens to be on the truck.
Frequently asked questions
Diagnosis is a flat $175 — we find the exact problem and tell you whether it's a repair or a replacement before any work starts. Labor is quoted upfront; parts are separate. You approve the complete price first and pay on completion.
The motor is alive but the flywheel is jammed — usually a pit, glass, or a utensil. Cleared properly, that's often a quick, cheap visit. If nothing's jammed and it still hums, the motor may be seizing, and we'll tell you on the spot whether it's worth repairing.
Honestly, no. A bottom leak means the internal seal has failed, and that's not a repairable part — the unit needs replacing. Leaks from the top flange or the side connections often are fixable. We check where the water actually comes from before quoting anything.
For most households, 1/2 to 3/4 HP covers it; 3/4 HP and up runs quieter and jams less, which matters in a condo kitchen. Under-sink space and your drain setup decide as much as horsepower does — we'll recommend what fits, with the price attached.
The usual suspects we pull out of jammed units: celery and corn husks, coffee grounds, piles of eggshells, pasta and rice that swell in the trap, bones, fruit pits, and grease — which spares the disposal but coats the drain line behind it. When in doubt, the trash can is cheaper than a service call.
