There are number of things in life that can give you heart-stopping pause. For instance, you go to turn on your car and it won’t start. You turn on your air conditioning on the hottest day of the year and are greeted with warm air. In our industry, a heart-stopping moment for our customers is when they flip the switch to turn on their garbage disposal and nothing happens. For such a small machine, it certainly has the power to cause quite a bit of panic.

This is why we spring into action right away when you call for garbage disposal repair or installation services. Nearly all the service calls our master plumbers respond to are simple and direct. Usually your disposal just needs a little tweak or adjustment to work perfectly again in no time at all. But, even if you need major repairs or a new unit, you can count on us to deliver affordable and reliable service 24/7.

You Can Prevent Major Garbage Disposal Repairs

That’s right. You have power over your garbage disposal. Unfortunately, many of our customers do not realize that how they operate their disposal directly affects its longevity. Household disposals are susceptible to break downs because many people use them incorrectly.

One of the biggest mistakes we see our customers make is putting the wrong things in their disposal. From dumping oil and grease into the disposal to grinding up things like pasta, potato skins, onion peels, and even celery or corn husks, these are the actions by people every day that lead to major problems with garbage disposal operation.

Your home’s disposal is not an all-mighty, powerful appliance. It has limitations. Residential disposals were never designed with enough horsepower to handle large amounts of food waste and their blades were not designed to chop up anything and everything. If you want to keep the blades, your drain pipes, and the actual disposal free of excess debris, use it according to the instructions that came with your disposal.
