Garbage disposal

While garbage disposals are powerful, they are not indestructible. If fruit pits, utensils, bones, or other hard objects get stuck inside, this can cause a jam. In turn, your disposal may stop working or refuse to switch on. Calling a professional in and asking about garbage disposal repair is safer than trying to force the disposal to work.

Several factors can cause your garbage disposal to stop working, including a blown motor, electrical issues, or a faulty switch.

Our experienced technician can diagnose the problem, perform garbage disposal repairs, or let you know if you need replacement. Remember, your safety is the most important thing, and you should never take on electrical problems alone.

Loose connections, worn seals, and cracks in the body of your garbage disposal can cause leak issues. Not only does this waste water, but it can also damage your sink.

Our technicians offer trustworthy garbage disposal repair or installation services in Marietta, GA and have the tools necessary to help you fix leaks in your system. To avoid issues, schedule regular inspections when you notice a problem. Call in our team of local plumbers to find and fix any leaks you see before they get worse.

If your disposal starts making a humming noise but will not run, the motor could be too hot, or there could be something hard jammed inside. This happens if you let it run for too long, or you don’t remove any hard objects before scraping your plates. You want to shut it off immediately and call a plumber to repair it.

If you do not regularly flush out your garbage disposal, tiny bits of food get trapped and can start to decompose and smell. However, if you flush it with mild soap and water and the smells stick around, you could have a more severe problem,  you may need the help of a professional.
