Garbage Disposal Repair and Installation

Garbage Disposals:

An electrical device that is mounted under the kitchen sink meant to chop and shred food waste so that it is small enough to fit down the drain.

 Common Problems:

  • Smells bad
  • Leaking
  • Humming noise
  • Not turning on
  • Jammed

 Keeping it Healthy:

  • Watch for items that might fall in – silverware, baby forks and spoons, can lids, bottle caps or anything that is smaller than a baseball.
  • Use daily
  • Run ice cubes once a week -  helps to maintain cleanliness
  • Always run COLD water when using the disposal. Hot water tends to melt cheese and chunks of grease causing them to melt and re-solidify and clogging the drain.
  • NEVER put oil and grease down your sink drain!
