Huntsville Garbage Disposal Repair: Solutions to Common Problems
Sometimes, the wrong foods can find their way down the garbage disposal. This can end up damaging to the unit and cause common problems, including:
Jamming
Excessive hard waste, such as eggshells, bones, or other hard waste can cause jamming. Metal and other tough items should be avoided from the disposal at all costs. A jam may fix itself if you leave water running in the disposal, but you may also damage the motor.
Failure to Turn On
A system that fails to turn on despite a active battery and connection likely needs to be inspected by a professional. Our techs can diagnose why your garbage disposal isn’t working.
Leaking
Leaking is another common problem that can occur, but this is often caused by loose screws or gaskets around the unit. A hole in the housing may also cause the disposal to leak. While a jam may fix automatically, leaks typically need the help of one of our professionals.
If you notice any of these signs with your system, call La Fayette Plumbing Services to have our experts inspect the issue.
Should You Repair or Replace Your Garbage Disposal?
When your garbage disposal fails, it can be difficult to determine if you should restore the unit or if it needs to be replaced. Our La Fayette garbage disposal installation and repair expert plumbers can repair virtually any problem with your unit. However, a faulty unit may keep jamming, leak, or make excessive noise, and constant repairs may cost more than purchasing a new unit. Aging units, or units that have been misused, can develop problems that are even too costly to repair. If you have a faulty disposal unit, ask us for advice on which option is the best choice.
