Garbage Disposals

Garbage Disposal Services in Massapequa, NY

Your New York garbage disposal does so much more than grinding food scraps.

It keeps your kitchen trash pail clean and odor-free. It helps decrease the amount of food that decays in landfills and emits greenhouse gas. It prevents food waste from clogging your plumbing and makes meal cleanup easy.

Your garbage disposal is one of the most hardworking appliances in your Massapequa, NY, kitchen. It performs best when installed correctly, with the precision and craftsmanship that Chivalry Plumbing & Heating brings to every job.

We pride ourselves on delivering honest, trustworthy service to homes and businesses throughout Wantagh, NY. Contact us to replace your aging garbage disposal or add a new one to your kitchen.

Expert Installation Services for Massapequa Garbage Disposals

Garbage disposals last approximately 12 to 15 years if they are maintained. If your unit jams up frequently or makes loud noises, it may be time to replace it.

Every installation or replacement we handle is different because plumbing systems and electrical services vary from kitchen to kitchen. If this is your first garbage disposal, we can confirm if your plumbing is ready to handle a new appliance.

We can help you choose the best garbage disposal for your needs and budget. If you have a big family and frequently prepare meals at home, you may need a unit with more horsepower. Typically, more powerful garbage disposals are bigger than standard models. The space available under your sink may dictate the brand or model you choose.

  • Do you want stainless steel or galvanized steel components in your new garbage disposal?
  • Do you prefer a hardwired model or one that plugs into an electrical outlet?
  • Is continuous feed or batch feed better for your needs?

A continuous feed garbage disposal enables you to add scraps as it operates. Batch feed models only run when a safety stopper covers the drain.

Our experts can advise you about the many features available, including noise reduction technology, single- and multiple-stage grinding, push-button starters, and dishwasher drain connectors.

At Chivalry Plumbing & Heating, we offer convenient financing options to help you purchase the right equipment for your comfort and safety.

Reliable Garbage Disposal Repair in Massapequa

No matter how careful you are with your garbage disposal, breakdowns can happen. If your garbage disposal stops working or jams frequently, we can help. Contact us if you experience these problems:

  • A garbage disposal that hums when you turn it on indicates it has power. Food or an object likely is jamming the grinding components.
  • It works, but the water does not drain. The garbage disposal, the pipe under the sink, or the drain line likely is clogged.
  • If you find water in your sink cabinet, the connections between pipes and your garbage disposal may be loose or a worn rubber gasket at the top of the garbage disposal may need replacement.

Chivalry Plumbing & Heating offers our customers 24/7 emergency repair services to be there when you need us. Our goal with every job is to provide worry-free service and 100 percent customer satisfaction.

Maintain Your Garbage Disposal

You can extend the life of your new garbage disposal and prevent unexpected breakdowns with these simple maintenance tips:

  • Keep your drain smelling fresh by grinding a few lemon peels.
  • Refrain from grinding fibrous foods, such as celery, or hard waste, like fruit pits and chicken bones. Some garbage disposals with two- and three-stage grinding can handle tough food waste. Check the instructions for your model.
  • Occasionally grind a few ice cubes to sharpen your garbage disposal’s blades.
  • Keep grease and shellfish shells out of your garbage disposal.
  • Always run cold water while the garbage disposal is operating to help flush food particles through the drain. Let the water run for a few seconds after turning off the appliance.
  • Avoid stuffing large amounts of food scraps into your garbage disposal.

I had 3 reputable Plumbing Companies come to my house and troubleshoot my heating system and try to figure out why house wouldn’t go over a certain temperature on Cold Days. Just as we were about to give up we saw an ad for Chivalry Plumbing and Heating. My Wife and I looked up the reviews and said if this guy can’t fix it no one can! So we called and set up an appointment. As Promised 10am the Following Day Chilvary Tech Jay sent me a text Saying he was out side and would be ready to come in when I was ready for him. He was prompt, professional and determined to fix the problem that three other companies weren’t able to do. He went over the system thoroughly! Two hours later we felt the house getting warmer. Not only did he fix the problem he also took the time to go over everything and explain how my wall hung boiler functioned and what we would need to do for future maintenance! Thank You Joe, Jay and the rest of the Chivalry Clan you guys came in and fixed the problem! They took their time and did what was needed to make us happy! We Highly recommend Chivalry Plumbing and Heating! Thanks Guys!

I had the pleasure of working with Chivalry Plumbing, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The office staff was incredibly pleasant and professional, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. They were able to come the following morning and complete several items the same day. The technicians Anthony and Eric were equally impressive. They were not only pleasant to work with but also highly professional and accommodating. They listened to my concerns, addressed them promptly, and ensured that everything was done to the highest standard. The quality of their work was outstanding. The attention to detail and commitment to excellence were evident in every aspect of the job. As the owner of a large NYC electrical contracting firm with 45 years of experience in the service industry, I know the meaning of high quality service, and I highly recommend Chivalry Plumbing to anyone in need of plumbing services. I will undoubtedly continue to use them for all my future plumbing needs.

Had water seeping out of our basement floor, although if it seems to not be a plumbing Issue, Eric from Chivalry plumbing helped reassure us that it is not a cracked pipe, and helped point us in the right direction. We appreciate that immensely. Thank you!

The plumber came the same day and fixed the problem and showed us how to prevent the problem from happening again or to mitigate damage from the major leak that we sprung.
