Q: How difficult is it to install a new garbage disposal?
A: Installing a new garbage disposal is often perceived as a straightforward task, especially for those who are handy or have some level of experience with DIY projects. The process typically involves removing the old unit, preparing the new one, and connecting it to your sink and electrical system.
However, while the process may seem simple on paper, it can be quite physically demanding and time-consuming. In addition, if not done correctly, it could lead to leaks or other issues that require further repair.
Some necessary steps include carefully detaching the old unit, properly sealing connections with plumber's putty, and ensuring the new unit is wired correctly. These steps require a certain level of knowledge and skill.
So, while it's possible to install a garbage disposal yourself, it's important to consider your comfort level with such tasks and the potential risks. If you're not confident or experienced in doing this type of work, hiring a professional can ensure the job is done safely and correctly.
