Our Plumbers Can Fix Your Garbage Disposal!

A disposal that hums without grinding, makes unusual noises or won't turn on usually has a motor, grinding component or wiring problem that a reset button can't solve. Once you notice a garbage disposal problem, it's important to act fast: left alone, it can cause odors, backed-up drains, bacteria buildup and leaks under your sink.

PlumbingPro uses professional-grade tools to diagnose the exact problem quickly and with minimal disruption, then walks you through your repair or replacement options.

✓  Jams cleared and components repaired
✓  Leaking seals and connections fixed
✓  Worn-out units replaced
✓  Workmanship you can trust

Warning Signs

Signs You Might Need Garbage Disposal Repair

Some disposal problems are obvious, while others take more attention to notice. Here are the main signs you might need a repair or replacement.

!

Frequent Jamming

A disposal that gets stuck or stops mid-cycle, even with small amounts of food, has worn or damaged grinding components.

!

Unusual Noises

Loud grinding, rattling or screeching points to loose internal parts or a failing motor.

!

Persistent Odors

Smells that linger despite cleaning mean trapped food buildup or a drainage issue inside the unit.

!

Leaking Beneath the Sink

Water pooling under the disposal suggests cracked housing, worn gaskets or loose connections that could lead to further water damage.
