Garbage Disposal Installation and Repair in Cherrywood (78722)

Why Cherrywood Homeowners Call Us First

Cherrywood sits in the sweet spot of East Austin's remodel boom: 1930s and 1940s bungalows getting full kitchen overhauls, with Patterson Park and the French Legation anchoring a neighborhood that keeps getting nicer.

The disposal calls here follow the remodels. A beautiful new kitchen goes in, the dishwasher gets hooked to the disposal, and nobody pulls the knockout plug, so the first dishwasher cycle floods the sink.

We fix that weekly. We also reseat flanges on vintage sinks that were kept for character and upgrade the tired 1/2 HP units that came with the flip.

If your remodel is in progress, have us in before the countertop crew: a disposal planned early never becomes a problem later.

The dishwasher knockout plug is the number one callback we prevent in 78722. On every install or replacement we physically verify water flows from the dishwasher into the disposal before we leave.

We also check the high loop on the drain hose, because Cherrywood's older dishwashers are often installed without one and backflow into the disposal chamber.

Cherrywood Homes and Their Disposals

Charming 1930s and 1940s bungalows, many now with additions, plus modern infill and duplexes on the side streets. Original kitchens are small, so compact disposals fit best in un-remodeled homes.

Remodeled kitchens usually have deep single-basin sinks that need the trap arm height verified. Older electrical is common in the untouched homes, and we bring the under-sink outlet up to code as part of the install.
