Huntsville Garbage Disposal Repair: Solutions to Common Problems
Sometimes, the wrong foods can get stuck in the garbage disposal. This can result in damage to the unit and cause common problems, including:
Jamming
Too much tough waste, such as eggshell fragments, bones, or other hard waste can cause jamming. Inorganic substances and other tough items should be avoided from the disposal at all costs. A jam may resolve automatically if you leave water running in the disposal, but you may also damage the motor.
Failure to Turn On
A system that won't turn on despite a working 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 resolve on its own, leaks typically need the help of one of our professionals.
If you notice any of these problems with your system, call Tuscumbia 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 fix the unit or if it needs to be replaced. Our Tuscumbia garbage disposal installation and repair expert plumbers can repair virtually any problem with your unit. However, a faulty unit may repeatedly jam, leak, or make excessive noise, and constant repairs may be more expensive than purchasing a new unit. Aging units, or units that have been misused, can develop problems that are even impossible to fix. If you have a faulty disposal unit, ask us for advice on which option is the most economical.
