Why is my garbage disposal not working?

Common issues include clogs, jammed blades, tripped circuits, or a burned-out motor. If resetting it doesn’t help, it’s time to call a pro.

Why is my garbage disposal humming but not spinning?

This usually means the flywheel is jammed. Turn off the power and try manually rotating it using a hex wrench. If it won’t budge, we can help.

Can you repair a leaking garbage disposal?

Yes, depending on the source of the leak, we can often fix seals, gaskets, or connections without replacing the entire unit.

How long should a garbage disposal last?

With proper use, most units last between 8 and 12 years. If your disposal is older and breaks down often, consider a replacement.

How do you clean a garbage disposal?

Clean it monthly using a mix of ice, salt, and citrus peels or baking soda and vinegar. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage internal parts.

Do I need a professional to install my garbage disposal?

Yes. Improper installation can lead to leaks, electrical hazards, or code violations. We handle both the plumbing and electrical aspects safely.
