How much does garbage disposal installation cost?

Disposals are in the under-2-hours group. Most installs are the $159 service call plus a few 15-minute increments at $39.75 each.

Can you install a disposal if I never had one?

Often, yes, as long as there is power under the sink or a way to bring it there. Tell us when you book and we’ll confirm what’s needed.

Will you connect my dishwasher to the new disposal?

Yes. If your dishwasher drains through the disposal, we remove the knockout plug and connect the drain line, then run both to check for leaks.

How much does fixture installation cost in San Diego?

Switch Your Fixture charges a $159 service call that includes the first hour of labor. Additional labor is $159 per hour, billed in 15-minute increments of $39.75. Every service is billed at the same rate, so you can add up the time for your fixtures and multiply by the hourly rate to build your own estimate.

What happens if my fixture takes less than, or more than, an hour to install?

Our service call includes an hour of labor to install your fixture. If it takes less than an hour, we offer other services to fill the time, such as changing bulbs, swapping switch plates or hanging a picture. Additional labor is billed in 15-minute increments at our hourly rate.

What if the fixture I bought doesn’t fit?

If we arrive and your fixture doesn’t fit, we only charge a 15-minute consultation fee ($39.75). The consultation gives you the information you need to buy the correct fixture, and we rebook your install.

Can you install multiple fixtures on the same visit?

Yes, that’s what we do. Every fixture is billed at the same rate, so put your whole list in one request: a fan, a faucet, a TV and a doorbell can all go in on the same trip under one service call.

Do you warranty your work?

Yes. We warranty all of our installations. If something we installed is not working the way it should, call or text (619) 677-8677 and we will come back and make it right.
