Can I install a garbage disposal myself without hiring a plumber?

You can install a garbage disposal yourself if you’re comfortable with plumbing and basic electrical. Many homeowners hire a licensed plumber to avoid leaks, jams, drainage issues and potential catastrophic failures. Alpine Plumbing installs and replaces disposals, repairs units that are “on the fritz,” and offers same-day fixture service in Odessa. We also diagnose related sink clogs with video inspection and hydro jetting. For prevention, schedule professional drain maintenance every 18–24 months, with more frequent service for heavy use or older piping.
