When to Call

Signs your disposal needs service

Don't wing it with a unit that's acting up — these are the telltale signs it's time for a pro.

🔇

Hums but Won't Spin

A humming disposal that won't turn usually means a jam or a seized motor.

🚫

Won't Turn On

No sound at all often points to a tripped reset, wiring, or a dead motor.

💧

Leaking Underneath

Water under the sink can come from the disposal body, seals, or connections.

🔊

Loud Grinding or Rattling

Harsh noises can mean a foreign object or worn, damaged components.

👃

Persistent Odors

Smells that won't clear may signal trapped debris or a failing unit.

🐢

Slow or Frequent Clogs

Backing up or draining slowly can mean the disposal isn't grinding well.

Keep your disposal running longer

A few simple habits go a long way toward avoiding jams, clogs, and early failure.

✓ Do

  • Run cold water while grinding
  • Feed scraps in small amounts
  • Run it regularly to prevent rust
  • Clean it with ice and citrus peels

✕ Don't

  • Pour grease or oil down it
  • Grind fibrous foods or peels in bulk
  • Put bones, pits, or shells in
  • Reach in — call a pro instead

Disposal FAQ

Common questions, answered

My disposal just hums — what's wrong?

A hum usually means the motor has power but something is jamming the grinding plate, or the motor has seized. It's best not to keep flipping the switch, which can burn out the motor — give us a call and we'll clear it safely.

Should I repair or replace my disposal?

Minor jams, leaks at a connection, or a tripped reset are usually quick repairs. If the motor is burned out or the unit is old and noisy, a replacement is often the better value. We'll give you an honest recommendation.

Where's the reset button?

Most units have a small red reset button on the bottom. If yours tripped, pressing it may restore power — if it trips again or won't reset, call us before running it further.

Can you install a disposal during a kitchen remodel?

Absolutely. We install new disposals for remodels and new sinks, handling both the plumbing and electrical connections to code.
