Unjamming and replacing disposals in San Francisco

Clearing jams without damage

We reset units safely, free impellers without puncturing the chamber, and check for foreign objects. Forcing a jam with a broom handle can crack the housing.

Busy kitchens benefit from 3/4 HP or 1 HP units. We verify electrical connections, dishwasher knockouts, and drain tailpieces meet code in San Francisco homes.

Maintenance habits that help

Cold water while running, avoid grease and fibrous peels, and periodic grinding of ice cubes keep motors cooler. We share practical tips when we install a new unit.

If you’re looking for a reliable plumber, Don should definitely be on speed dial! I’ve been using his services for 2 years. He’s fixed everything from clogged sinks to toilet clogs and also replaced my toilet and garbage disposal. I live in an older home in San Francisco and some of those drain clogs were extremely difficult to fix but nothing Don can’t handle. Give him a call!

I worked with Don for a few years now. Over the years, he had helped me install a toilet, garbage disposal, and fix a few emergency nasty sewer drain clogs. He never fails to fit me into his schedule. Don is one of the most honest plumbers I have dealt with. Ask your questions and he will be more than happy to help. I switched a lot of different plumbers over the years but Don is definitely my first call now. Go with DDD Plumbing San Francisco Drain Cleaning!

I’ve been using Don since his business began. Don always offers the best prices for all San Francisco draining needs. I’ve used him for faucet installations, garbage disposal, drain clogs, outdoor and indoor plumbing needs, plumbing leaks, sewer cleaning, among other services for my properties. My neighbors also raved about his coverage in the San Francisco bay area region for shower installation, water tank needs, drain cleaning, sink draining, etc. He far and away exceeds my expectations especially in the San Francisco Bay Area region where prices are exorbitant. With Don, you get bang for your buck for professional plumbing and drainage needs with free warranty for the first month! I’ll be using Don for years to come! Hey Don, time to start a loyalty program?!

Don did a few jobs for us, and we kept coming back to him for our plumbing needs. After a great experience fixing and installing our rusted old garbage disposal, we thought of him for our toilet replacement. He goes above and beyond to make sure there aren't and issues, and even came back to do the caulking without extra charge. He brought someone to help him with the toilet and they both did a great, clean, professional job. Thanks so much Don!

My garbage disposal has been making strange noises for a while now. It’s long overdue for a replacement. Don made the entire process super easy. He came with all the necessary materials and replaced my garbage disposal within the hour. Love the fact he offered 30 day warranty for the service as well. Very friendly and easy to work with. Would definitely recommend Don!

I've worked with Donald of ASAP Plumbing several times over the past 4 years and can confidently recommend their services. He's unclogged drains, replaced kitchen sink water valves and garbage disposal, and resolved an active leak in my old rental apartment kitchen. He's prompt to respond to inquiries, shows up during the expected time window, and overall is a very friendly and personable guy.

Donald from ASAP Plumbing was super quick and responsive. Helped me out in both San Francisco and South San Francisco. On the first occasion, he was able to unclog the drain in no time! On the second occasion, he was able to push out the "thing" that was stuck in the pipes, saving me from having to potentially replace the toilet entirely!! Super professional and easy going. 100% recommend.
