What is the Average Garbage Disposal Replacement Cost in Orland Hills?

If your garbage disposal has broken and you need to have it replaced, expect to pay about $250-650 depending on who installs it and which model you choose.

A professional plumber will likely charge a little more to install a garbage disposal than a handy man, but the result will likely be better. Hiring a Orland Hills plumber ensures that the plumbing components associated with your garbage disposal will be installed correctly, which can reduce the likelihood of issues later. When you have an experienced plumber install a new garbage disposal, you reduce the chances of under sink leaks or water backups.

The specific unit you choose will also affect the total installation price. More powerful and quieter garbage disposals will obviously be more expensive than basic models, but in exchange they offer significant benefits.

Also, it’s worth noting that if you already have a garbage disposal installed and it has failed, the old, broken unit needs to be removed before the new unit can be installed, which can lead a plumber to find other plumbing issues along the way. Sometimes a plumber will get under your kitchen sink to remove the old garbage disposal only to find aging supply lines and clogged drainpipes, which they may recommend replacing. If any additional plumbing work needs to be done, it’s typically most cost-effective to have it all done at once to avoid needing to pay a separate trip charge for a second visit in the future. So, while this kind of extra work will increase the total bill, it will likely save you money in the long run.
