Garbage Disposal Replacement
Most calls we get are replacements, not new installs. The old unit quit, started leaking from the bottom, or hummed without spinning one too many times. Wilson & Myers handles garbage disposal replacement across Denver Metro Area: full removal of the old unit, proper mounting of the new one, drain and electrical connections, and a leak test before we leave.
What We Handle
Garbage Disposal Replacement
When the old unit needs to come out, we disconnect it from the drain, remove the electrical connection, and detach the mounting assembly from the sink flange. On older Denver Metro Area homes, the sink flange itself is often corroded and needs to be replaced at the same time: we assess this on arrival and include it in the scope when needed. The new unit goes in on the same visit. We carry InSinkErator and Moen units in the most common horsepower ratings, so most replacements are completed without a return trip. Book online to confirm availability.
When to Replace vs Repair
Not every disposal problem means replacement. A unit that hums but won’t spin has a jammed plate that can often be cleared with an Allen wrench and a reset. A unit that won’t turn on at all may just have a tripped reset button. We recommend checking both before calling for service. But three situations almost always mean replace, not repair: leaking from the bottom (failed internal seal), grinding sounds with visible damage to the housing, and units over 10 years old that have failed mechanically. If you’re not sure, see our garbage disposal repair page: we’ll give you a straight answer on the call.
New Garbage Disposal Installation
When you need to install garbage disposal where none existed before, that’s a different scope than a straight replacement. It requires a dedicated outlet or hardwired connection under the sink, a drain opening in the sink bowl, and proper drain plumbing to connect to the existing line. Many handymen skip the electrical step or wire it incorrectly. Our technicians handle the complete scope on a single visit: mounting, drain, electrical, and the test run. Need garbage disposal installation near me for a new build or remodel? We assess the configuration before scheduling to confirm the job is feasible.
Electrical: Outlet vs Hardwired
Most disposals in Denver Metro Area homes plug into a switched outlet under the sink. Some are hardwired directly to a dedicated circuit. We handle both. If no outlet or hardwired connection exists, an electrician needs to run one before we proceed. We identify this at booking and tell you exactly what needs to happen before we schedule the visit.
The Dishwasher Knockout
Every new garbage disposal ships with a plastic knockout plug inside the dishwasher drain inlet on the side of the unit. If you have a dishwasher, that plug must be removed before the job is done. It’s a small step that gets missed on DIY installs and causes dishwasher drainage problems immediately. We confirm the dishwasher connection on every install in a kitchen that has one. Need the dishwasher installed at the same time? See our dishwasher installation page.
Replacement Cost
Three things affect the total price: whether you supply the unit or we do, whether the sink flange needs work, and whether the electrical connection is standard. The cost to replace a garbage disposal is confirmed before any work begins. Garbage disposal installation cost for a new install from scratch runs higher due to electrical and drain scope. For pricing details, see our pricing page. Big box retailers charge fees only on units purchased from their stores and often don’t handle electrical or haul-away. We install any unit purchased anywhere and handle the full scope on one visit.
What We Check Before Leaving
Every job ends the same way. We run cold water and operate the disposal to confirm there are no leaks at the mounting assembly, the drain connection, or the dishwasher fitting. The reset button is tested. The wall switch is confirmed to work correctly. A disposal that leaks at the mounting ring almost always means the sink flange was not properly sealed: we don’t leave until that’s confirmed tight.

Garbage Disposal Installation FAQ
Replace it. A disposal leaking from the bottom has a failed internal motor seal that is not repairable. Patching it doesn’t work. Most bottom leaks mean the unit has reached the end of its life. If you’re not certain, see our garbage disposal repair page: we’ll diagnose before recommending anything.

Ryan was great with my dryer repair. He complete the task in less than 1 hr and was great with responding quickly! Thank you.
Isabella RiccaThey responded very quickly to my call and arrived timely (appreciated the text that they were on the way & when they arrived). They were very nice and explained everything that they found wrong with my dryer and walked me through the process of how they would repair the issues prior to repairing it. Would recommend!
AvaTechnician arrived on time and was courteous and professional in their explanation. I felt comfortable with their recommendations. Appreciate the level of service from this small company
Isabella KlaimyHad our washing machine break mid-cycle on a Sunday. Within a few minutes of reaching out to them, the team at Wilson and Myers had contacted me with available times including that very evening, no additional fees for a weekend. The tech that arrived was really friendly and professional and got the job done quickly and below the amount I had prepared myself to pay. Will definitely use again if needed!
