What is The Water Works?

The Water Works provides reliable, top-quality plumbing services for both Residential and Commercial customers.

Should I repair or replace my garbage disposal?

If your disposal in West Sacramento is less than 8 years old and the issue is a jam or clog, repair is usually worth it. If the disposal is older, leaking from the body, or the motor has failed, replacement is typically more cost-effective. We'll give you an honest recommendation based on the unit's age and condition.

Do you offer emergency disposal repair in West Sacramento?

While a broken disposal is inconvenient, it's not typically an emergency. We offer same day and next-day disposal repair throughout West Sacramento and Yolo County. If your disposal is leaking and causing water damage, call our office promptly and we'll prioritize your call.

How long does disposal replacement take?

Most garbage disposal replacements in West Sacramento take 45 to 90 minutes. We carry common replacement units on every truck, so we can often complete the replacement the same visit. We handle the electrical connection, mounting, and drain connections, and we test for leaks before we head out.

What garbage disposal brands do you install in West Sacramento?

We install and service all major garbage disposal brands including Insinkerator, Waste King, Moen, and GE. We carry common replacement units on every truck and can recommend models based on your household size, usage, and budget. We do not mark up the cost of the unit — you pay what we pay from the supplier.

How much does garbage disposal repair cost in West Sacramento?

Garbage disposal repair in West Sacramento, California typically ranges from $100 to $250 depending on the concern. Garbage disposal replacement including a new unit runs $200 to $450. We provide flat-rate pricing you approve first before any work begins and carry replacement units on every truck.

Why is my garbage disposal humming but not turning?

A humming disposal in West Sacramento usually means the motor is getting power but the blades are jammed. This is often caused by a hard object — bone, utensil, or hard food — stuck in the grinding chamber. We can usually clear the jam without delay. If the motor has burned out, replacement is the best option.
