Garbage Disposal Installation
Connected Craftsman installs and replaces garbage disposals — InSinkErator, Waste King, and Moen GX — for homeowners in Downingtown and across Chester County, PA. We handle straightforward swaps as well as first-time installs, checking for a switched outlet under the sink and confirming septic compatibility where it applies.

What's involved
We install InSinkErator (Badger and Evolution lines), Waste King, and Moen GX disposals. Replacing an existing unit is generally a straightforward swap. A first-time install, where there wasn't a disposal before, is more involved — the main thing we flag rather than assume is whether there's already a switched outlet under the sink, since that's an electrical scope point that affects the job.

What homeowners should know first
Horsepower selection should match your actual household use, not just "biggest is best" — a bigger motor isn't automatically the right call for every kitchen. If you're on a septic system, which is relevant for some of the more rural parts of our service area (parts of Chester Springs and the Kennett Square outskirts, for example), compatibility is worth confirming before you buy a unit. We also check the dishwasher drain knockout plug as part of installation, since a disposal that isn't properly connected to the dishwasher drain is a common source of leaks down the line.
Cost
Pricing splits into two tiers: a straight swap of an existing disposal, or a first-time install that requires electrical work for a switched outlet. Exact pricing is confirmed after a quick look at your specific kitchen setup.From the blog

Frequently asked questions
Is it septic-safe?
Septic compatibility depends on the unit and your system — worth confirming before you buy if you're on septic, which applies to some of the more rural parts of our service area.What size disposal do I need for my household?
Horsepower should match your actual household use rather than defaulting to the biggest available model — we can help you think through the right size for your kitchen.Can you install one where there wasn't one before?
Yes — that's a bigger job than a straight swap, mainly because we need to check whether there's already a switched outlet under the sink or whether that needs to be added.Do you haul away the old unit?
Removal of your old disposal can typically be included — let us know when scheduling so we can plan for it.Serving Chester County
