Frequently Asked Questions
How much should it cost to install a garbage disposal?

The cost of installation can vary depending on several factors, including the price of the unit itself, the complexity of the plumbing work required, and the labor charges. At Ben’s Plumbing, we provide transparent, upfront pricing that accounts for all the necessary components to ensure your new kitchen appliance is properly integrated into your kitchen’s plumbing system.

How long does it take a professional to install a garbage disposal?

On average, experienced technicians can complete a garbage disposal installation service in 2-3 hours. However, the exact duration may be influenced by the complexity of the project, the condition of your existing plumbing, and the need for any additional modifications or repairs.

How long does a typical garbage disposal last?

With proper maintenance and care, a well-made appliance can typically last between 8 to 15 years. The lifespan of your unit will depend on factors such as frequency of use, brand quality, and the level of care it receives over time.

Are garbage disposals worth repairing?

Whether it’s worth repairing your existing device depends on a variety of factors, including the age of the unit, the extent of the damage, and the cost of the repair. Our team at Ben’s Plumbing can thoroughly assess your disposal and provide a recommendation on the most cost-effective solution, whether that’s a repair or a full replacement.

Is it better to repair or replace a garbage disposal?

As a general rule, if your garbage disposal is within its average 8-15 year lifespan and the repair cost is relatively low, then a repair is often the best option. However, if the unit is older, the damage is significant, or the repair cost is close to the price of a replacement, upgrading to a new device may be the more prudent choice. Our experts can help you make this determination based on the specific condition of your unit.

We had a water main leak that may have resulted from work done on a neighbors property. Their contractor said he would bring a plumber in to fix it, but the "plumber" turned out to be the contractor, and he had no idea what he was doing; he started the job, and then quit after we found that he double-billed us for materials. Another plumber quoted an astronomical price, and couldn't get to it for two weeks. Two more never called back. Two guys from Ben's/HD Partners showed up the next day, and knew exactly what needed to be done. They got parts from their shop, and 1-1/2 hours later the pipe was replaced with solid fittings, both deep holes filled in, and the sidewalk dirt hosed down, for about 1/4 of what the other plumber quoted. Very competent and professional...worked fast and got the job done quickly at a fair price. I've heard of a few contractors doing stellar work for new customers to get great reviews, and then gouging them later, so I'm hoping that this is a company that always does stellar work at a fair price. I'll be calling Ben's again, so we'll find out. ;-)

Easy, kind, down to earth from start to finish. I felt the costs were transparent and the work was done well and efficiently. We had a water heater issue and they took care of us within 24 hours on the weekend. Text communication was an option and online payment made things easy. Will use Ben’s again.

These guys were just incredible. We had kind of a tricky issue with the plumbing under a toilet. We checked three other plumbers and got quotes ranging from $2700 - $4200. And that was just to cut a lead pipe, replace it with modern materials and mount the toilet on a new ring/grease fitting. All the bids included some strange tinker toy like plumbing routing to fix the problem. One plumber suggested that we cut a hole into a plaster wall to gain access to the pipes! Ben's plumbing came in at $1200 and that included a brand new toilet! No strange rerouting of the plumbing. Just an in place repair. The plumber, Nic Huse, was unbelievably competent and efficient. He told us what he intended to do and just...did it. In about 2.5 hours. No fuss, no muss. If I could give these guys six stars out of five, I would.

Your technician arrived, got right to work. He replaced an outside faucet and reset my regulator so that I now have the proper water pressure throughout the house. I appreciated that he was very informative with all of my questions. I would use Ben's Plumbing again in the future!

I hired Ben's to take care of the plumbing for two bathroom fluffs in our home - the first visit involved removing the old faucets and the second visit was to install new faucets and a (tricky) Kohler Reach toilet. I can't remember the first plumber's name, but Nick did the installs and they were both great to work with. Nick even hauled away our old toilets. With both encounters the experience was positive in every way - they were responsive, able to come out fairly quickly, professional, and cleaned-up well after they were done. Their pricing seemed reasonable, too. We'll definitely use them again.
