Signs You Need Garbage Disposal Repair

Having a working garbage disposal is something a lot of people take for granted. It's when your garbage disposal stops working after cleaning up from a meal that it becomes a frustrating reality. Below we've provided 4 signs to look for in order to avoid this annoying scenario.

• Frequent Resets -
  Your garbage disposal's reset button is for strange situations, like a clog. You shouldn't need to use the reset button very often. But, if you are having to use it frequently, it could be that it needs repair or even replacement.
• Strange Noises -
  A odd noise could be a piece of silverware that has gone into the garbage disposal unnoticed and be easily retrieved. If it is still making strange sounds after the silverware has been removed, it could be that some of the components on your unit are misaligned and may need our professional help.
• No Power -
  If your garbage disposal isn't turning on, it could be that a circuit has blown. Unexplained power issues usually mean the garbage disposal has a failing motor.
• Clogs For No Reason -
  If your garbage disposal is clogging for no apparent reason, it could be that you need a higher capacity garbage disposal model or it could be something wrong with the unit's motor.

Common Garbage Disposal Problems

As mentioned above, garbage disposals have a variety of things that can go wrong with them due to the amount of material they are used to process.

Common issues include:

• Jams from metal objects that have fallen in
• Leaking pipes
• Leaking from the garbage disposal unit
• Smells from stuck food
• Clogged drains and pipes

Importantly, if something is jamming your disposal, do not try and turn it on to release the jam. Running a seized motor can permanently damage it. Jammed items must be removed to protect the motor from breaking and costing even more money to replace.
