Is Your Disposal Trying to Tell You Something?
Garbage disposal problems are usually mechanical, meaning they're often quick to diagnose and fix. Here's what we see most.
Humming but not turning
Usually a jam in the flywheel that can often be cleared without new parts.
Leaking underneath
A worn seal or a cracked housing is typically the cause of leaks below the sink.
Won't turn on at all
Could be a tripped reset button, a bad switch, or an electrical issue.
Unusual grinding noise
Often something stuck in the chamber, or worn grind components.
Slow draining sink
Can be a clog in the disposal itself or in the connected drain line.
Frequent breaker trips
Usually a sign the motor is straining and needs inspection.
Our Garbage Disposal Repair Process
Disposals are simple machines, so most issues can be found quickly with a methodical check.
Check for jams and power
We check the flywheel and reset switch first, since these solve most disposal problems.
Inspect seals and connections
Leaks and drainage issues are checked next if the unit powers on fine.
Explain the findings
You'll know the cause and cost, including whether replacement makes more sense than repair.
Repair and run water test
We run water and test the disposal to confirm it's grinding and draining properly.
