Your garbage disposal works hard to keep your kitchen clean and free of food scraps, but over time, it may experience issues. Some of the most common garbage disposal problems we encounter include:
- Jamming: Food or debris can cause the disposal to get stuck, preventing it from turning on or grinding properly.
- Leaks: A leaky disposal can lead to water damage in your kitchen, requiring prompt repair or replacement.
- Failure to Start: If the disposal won’t turn on, it could be due to electrical issues, a tripped circuit breaker, or a faulty switch.
- Clogs: Over time, waste buildup can cause a blockage in your garbage disposal, preventing proper drainage.
- Unpleasant Odors: Food particles can get stuck and start to rot, leading to foul smells in the sink.
If you're experiencing any of these issues, it may be time for garbage disposal repair or replacement. Our expert plumbers will diagnose the problem and recommend the best solution.
