Garbage disposals are one of the most convenient appliances in any kitchen—until they stop working. At Lakeside Pro Services, we provide complete garbage disposal solutions for Detroit homeowners and businesses, including installation, repairs, replacements, and ongoing maintenance. Whether you’re upgrading to a new InSinkErator unit or need a quick fix to get your sink draining again, our certified plumbers deliver fast, reliable service you can count on.

Garbage Disposal Installation

A properly installed garbage disposal makes kitchen cleanup faster and easier. We install disposals that fit your household’s size, plumbing setup, and budget. Our technicians handle everything from electrical connections to drain alignment, ensuring your new system works seamlessly from day one.

We recommend trusted brands such as InSinkErator, known for quiet, reliable performance and long-lasting durability. With models available in multiple horsepower options, you’ll get the right fit whether you’re outfitting a compact kitchen in Midtown Detroit or a large family home in Grosse Pointe.

Garbage Disposal Repairs

Common disposal problems like humming noises, clogged drains, or leaking seals don’t always mean you need a replacement. Our plumbers diagnose and fix issues quickly, saving you the cost of a new unit whenever possible.

Typical repair services include:

  • Clearing jams and removing foreign objects
  • Replacing worn seals and gaskets
  • Fixing leaks at drain connections
  • Resetting or replacing overloaded motors
  • Restoring proper electrical connections

If repairs aren’t cost-effective, we’ll guide you through your replacement options and provide upfront pricing.

Garbage Disposal Replacement

Most garbage disposals last 8–12 years, depending on use. If your system is constantly clogging, making loud grinding noises, or failing to power on, replacement may be the smarter option.

Our team removes the old unit, installs a new high-performance disposal, and ensures all connections are watertight and code-compliant. We can also recommend energy-efficient models with advanced grinding technology to reduce clogs and handle tougher food scraps.

Garbage Disposal Maintenance

Like any appliance, regular care extends the life of your disposal. Seasonal tune-ups help prevent clogs, leaks, and motor strain. Our maintenance services include cleaning buildup from grinding chambers, checking seals, tightening fittings, and making sure blades are sharp enough for efficient operation.

We also advise homeowners on safe practices—such as avoiding grease, fibrous foods, and non-food items—that will keep their disposals running longer.

From minor repairs to full replacements, Lakeside Pro Services is Detroit’s trusted choice for garbage disposal service. We work with top brands, understand local plumbing systems, and back every job with professional expertise.

Local Considerations for Detroit Homes

Detroit’s housing mix means garbage disposal needs vary widely. Older homes in Indian Village and Boston Edison may have limited under-sink space or outdated wiring that requires careful installation. In newer homes around Grosse Pointe or Sterling Heights, we can install higher-capacity models to keep up with family cooking demands.

Hard water in Southeast Michigan can also contribute to mineral buildup inside disposals. Regular maintenance and cleaning help reduce wear and keep systems running efficiently.
