About Our Garbage Disposals Service
Garbage disposals are exposed to constant use as they process food waste, so their internal components naturally experience wear over time. As parts wear or become obstructed, the disposal may jam, develop leaks, or stop operating as expected. A disposal that hums without spinning is often a sign that the impeller is jammed or that the reset switch has been tripped. If the unit is leaking, the source is frequently a worn mounting gasket or a loose connection at the drain flange. Because different problems can produce similar symptoms, it is important to identify the actual cause before deciding on a repair. Our technicians perform a thorough inspection of the disposal instead of assuming the motor has failed. This allows them to determine whether the problem is mechanical or electrical and repair the specific issue that is preventing the disposal from operating properly.
Signs You May Need Garbage Disposals
- The disposal hums but the blades do not turn
- Water leaks from underneath the sink near the disposal unit
- The unit trips the reset button repeatedly
- Unusual grinding or rattling noises during operation
- A persistent odor coming from the disposal even after cleaning
- The disposal does not respond at all when switched on
Our Garbage Disposals Process
- We ask what happens when the disposal is switched on, including any humming or silence.
- The technician checks for jams, tests the reset switch, and inspects seals and connections for leaks.
- We explain what is causing the issue before beginning the repair.
- The disposal is repaired, tested under running water, and checked for leaks.

Frequently Asked Questions
This usually means the impeller is jammed by something lodged inside, or the motor has overheated and tripped the internal reset. Both are typically resolvable without full replacement.
Not always. Leaks are frequently caused by a worn mounting gasket or a loose slip nut connection, which can be repaired without replacing the whole unit.
Fibrous foods, grease, bones, and starchy items like pasta or rice expand or wrap around the impeller and are common causes of jams and premature wear.
