Raptor Plumbing: Your Neighborhood Pros for Tub Repair and Garbage Disposal Replacement

From Palm Beach Gardens to Hypoluxo and Atlantis—and throughout both Palm Beach and Broward counties—Raptor Plumbing is your trusted local team for expert tub repair and seamless garbage disposal replacement. We focus on safe, clean, code-compliant work that protects your home and keeps your plumbing performing its best.

Tub Repair: Stop Small Issues Before They Grow

• Chips, hairline cracks, and rust near the drain or overflow can spread and cause leaks.
• Soft or spongy flooring by the tub may indicate hidden moisture and damaged subflooring.
• Slow drains or recurring clogs often come from hair and soap buildup.
• Peeling, moldy, or missing caulk invites water intrusion and mildew.

Raptor Plumbing handles color-matched surface repairs, secure drain/overflow assemblies, mildew-resistant re-caulking, and leak fixes at supply and waste connections. We ensure pipes are properly supported along framing and kept within walls or cabinets—never exposed on finished exterior surfaces.

Garbage Disposal Replacement: Signs It’s Time

• Frequent jams or a humming motor even after pressing the reset button.
• Leaking from the unit body, sink flange, or discharge connection.
• Persistent odors due to worn impellers and residue you can’t clear.
• Breaker trips or overheating, indicating a failing motor.

We’ll match you with a quiet, right-sized disposal, align drain and dishwasher connections, secure the electrical/switch setup, and thoroughly test for leaks and performance. Most replacements take about an hour.

How We Work

• Clear diagnostics and options—honest guidance on repair versus replacement.
• Protective coverings and tidy cleanup to respect your home.
• Code-compliant installs: correct traps and vents, watertight seals, and pipes secured inside walls or cabinets, properly attached to framing—not running across exterior surfaces.
• Straightforward timelines; many tub repairs and disposal swaps are same-day (allowing for curing time where needed).
• Reliable warranties on labor and manufacturer-backed parts.

Simple Maintenance Tips

• Use a hair catcher in tubs and rinse with hot water after baths to reduce buildup.
• Avoid harsh chemical drain cleaners; choose enzyme-based products when needed.
• For disposals, grind a handful of ice and a spoon of rock salt monthly; follow with a small piece of citrus peel for freshness.
• Run cold water before, during, and 20 seconds after using your disposal.
• Inspect tub caulk every six months and re-seal any gaps to prevent leaks.
