Garbage Disposal Installation, Repair & Appliance Hookups in Paramount, CA
Jams Freed, Units Replaced, Lines Run Right | InSinkErator & Moen Installed | CSLB #1051553 | Se Habla Español
The disposal is the hardest-working appliance nobody thinks about until it hums, leaks, or quits mid-cleanup. Ser Plumbing frees the jams worth freeing, replaces the units worth replacing, and tells you clearly which is which, then wires the rest of the kitchen’s water needs- dishwasher, ice maker, and fridge lines- to the same standard.

The Problem: Why People Call
Six symptoms cover almost every disposal call, and each one points somewhere different.
What’s Covered
Disposal repair
Jam relief done safely, leaking connections resealed, mounting and splash-guard replacements, and the plain verdict when the motor or body is done.
Disposal replacement and new installation
Our stocked default is the InSinkErator Badger series, with Moen units alongside, installed from $335 to $400 typical, including proper mounting, discharge alignment, and dishwasher tie-in. First-time installs where no disposal existed are welcome too.
Repair or replace: the rule of thumb
Under about five years with a jam or connection leak: repair wins. Body leaks, burned motors, weekly resets, or a unit past eight to ten years: replacement stops the subscription. We quote the side the unit argues for, and both when it is genuinely close.
Dishwasher hookups
Supply connection, air-gap or high-loop drainage done to code, and the disposal knockout handled correctly, the single most common DIY dishwasher mistake we un-make.
Ice maker and refrigerator lines
Proper valves and line routing instead of the piercing-saddle shortcuts that account for a shameful share of kitchen floods. If the fridge line is 20-year-old plastic, replacing it costs less than one warped floor plank.
Washing machine valves and hoses live with laundry plumbing → Faucet & sink services
Chronic drain clogs beyond the disposal → Drain cleaning
Pricing
Disposal work quotes tightly once we know the unit and the connections. Here is how it typically runs:
What moves the number: unit horsepower and brand, the condition of the mounting and drain connections, and whether the electrical side is ready. Written numbers first, always.
Standard labor discounts apply.
Why Ser Plumbing for Disposals & Hookups
The drain gets considered, not just the appliance
A disposal is only as good as the line it feeds. We look downstream before quoting, which is why our replacements stay fixed. Drain cleaning →
Stocked brands, same-visit installs
InSinkErator and Moen units on the truck mean most replacements finish the day they start.
Honest jam calls
Plenty of jams are five-minute fixes, and they get billed that way instead of upselling a unit with years left.
Appliance lines without the shortcuts
Real valves, proper routing, no piercing saddles. The flood you never have is the point.
Clean exits
Under-sink work invites mess; drop cloths and a wiped cabinet are part of the job here.

Twelve straight answers to the questions we hear on the phone every week.
Ask us directly ↗
My disposal is humming but not grinding. What does that mean?
Is it worth repairing, or should I just replace it?
The rule of thumb above: young unit with a jam or fitting leak, repair; body leak, burned motor, or advancing age, replace. At $335 to $400 installed for a quality unit, replacement is often the better decision, and we will say when it is not.
What horsepower do I need?
Half-horsepower serves most households honestly; three-quarter earns its keep in kitchens that cook daily and entertain often. Bigger is quieter and jams less, not just stronger, which is the part the box does not explain.
Why does my disposal smell?
Food film on the splash guard and grind chamber, usually. Citrus peel and ice help; scrubbing the splash guard's underside helps more. A persistent sewer-type smell is a different animal and worth a call. Drain cleaning →
What should never go in a disposal?
Grease, fibrous vegetables in quantity, coffee grounds by the load, eggshell mountains, and anything that is not food. The full sermon is in the deep-dive above; the short version is that the disposal finishes plates, it does not replace the trash can.
Can you hook up my new dishwasher?
Yes, including the supply, code-correct drainage, and the disposal knockout that floods kitchens when missed. Bring us in before the appliance delivery crew improvises.
