What We Offer

Our Garbage Disposal Repair Services

Disposal Won’t Turn On

If your unit is completely unresponsive, we inspect:
  • Power supply
  • Reset button
  • Circuit breaker
  • Wiring connections
  • Internal motor failure
Many issues are simple fixes when diagnosed properly.

Leaking Garbage Disposal

Leaking Garbage Disposal Leaks may come from:
  • Sink flange
  • Dishwasher connection
  • Drain line connection
  • Cracked housing
  • Worn seals
We identify the source and repair or replace components as needed.

Clogged Garbage Disposal

If water backs up into your sink, the disposal or connected drain line may be clogged. We:
  • Clear food buildup
  • Remove grease blockages
  • Clean P-traps
  • Restore proper drainage
We ensure the problem is fully resolved, not temporarily cleared.

Humming but Not Grinding

A humming sound usually means the motor is running but the grinding mechanism is jammed. We safely:
  • Clear internal obstructions
  • Free jammed impellers
  • Inspect internal components
  • Reset the unit properly

Garbage Disposal Replacement

If your disposal is old, rusted, or repeatedly failing, replacement may be the best solution. We remove the old unit and install a new, properly sized disposal.

Frequent resets may indicate overheating, electrical problems, or motor failure.
