Quick solution to your plumbing problems!
Garbage Disposals
Garbage disposals offer great convenience, but when one jams, it can quickly back up your kitchen sink. Due to the disposal’s internal mechanisms and its connection to the drain system, the sink won’t clear until the unit is repaired or replaced. While plunging the sink might provide short-term relief, it won’t solve the underlying issue.
Watch the video above to learn how to un-jam a disposal like a professional. If these steps don’t work, contact a qualified technician for prompt, reliable service.
Common garbage disposal issues include:
Leaks- Over time, the bottom of the disposal can corrode, or its internal seals may fail, leading to drip‑through leaks.
Jams– Large volumes of food scraps or hard‑to‑grind items (such as seeds or small foreign objects) can cause the grinding mechanism to seize.
Humming– A humming sound often indicates that the motor or impeller has seized or burned out.
No response– Flipping the switch yields no noise or movement, suggesting an electrical or motor failure.
Poor drainage– Accumulated food debris clogs the disposal, preventing proper sink drainage.
