Garbage Disposal Problems We Fix Every Day
Homeowners call us about a disposal that hums but won't spin, one that leaks from the bottom, one that trips the breaker over and over, or one that has simply reached the end of its service life. A jammed or leaking disposal backs up the kitchen sink and throws off daily routines until it gets fixed.
Repair is usually the right call for a jam, a worn flywheel, a reset switch issue, or a loose connection. Replacement makes more sense for a leaking housing, a burned-out motor, or a unit older than 10 years. We diagnose the actual cause before we recommend either option, so you're not paying for a new unit when a repair would do the job.
How We Repair and Replace Garbage Disposals
Every job starts with a full inspection before we quote any work.
- Diagnose the unit. We check for jams, electrical faults, leaks, and worn components using proper tools, not guesswork.
- Repair when possible. We clear jams, replace worn parts, fix electrical connections, and test the unit under real kitchen conditions.
- Replace when necessary. We safely disconnect and remove the old unit, install and seal the new disposal, and test drainage and power before we finish the job.
