Common Garbage Disposal Problems & Repairs

The frequent use of garbage disposals leads to mechanical wear, clogs, and motor failures. Our plumbers diagnose and repair common disposal issues quickly and efficiently.

  • Jammed Blades: Hard food scraps, bones, or objects can cause the disposal to jam and not operate correctly.
  • Clogs & Slow Drainage: Food buildup and grease can block the disposal drain, leading to slow water flow or backups.
  • Leaking Disposal Unit: A loose connection, cracked housing, or worn-out seals may cause water leaks under the sink.
  • Motor Won’t Turn On: Electrical issues or a burnt-out motor may prevent the unit from operating.

Prompt repairs help prevent further damage and restore proper function to your garbage disposal.
