Food particles or grease buildup can create major clogs. We safely clear the blockage without damaging your pipes.

Rattling, humming, or leaking can signal worn-out seals or failing components. We identify and replace faulty parts quickly.

Need for New Installation

If your current disposal is outdated or beyond repair, we install a new, energy-efficient unit tailored to your sink and usage needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if my garbage disposal stops working?

First, try pressing the reset button located at the bottom of the unit. If that doesn’t work, call a garbage disposal plumber for troubleshooting.

Can I install a garbage disposal myself?

While DIY kits exist, improper installation can lead to leaks or electrical hazards. Professional installation ensures safety and efficiency.

How often should I perform garbage disposal maintenance?

Regular maintenance every 6–12 months, including cleaning and checking connections, keeps your unit running smoothly.

What foods should I avoid putting in the disposal?

Avoid fibrous vegetables, bones, coffee grounds, grease, and pasta—all common causes of a garbage disposal clogged with debris.

How long does a garbage disposal typically last?

With proper use and care, most disposals last 8–15 years. We help you evaluate whether repair or replacement is the best option.
