Garbage Disposal Repair Services
The disposal is one of the most frequently used appliances in the household. Day in and day out this small machine is responsible for grinding up food waste and moving it through your pipes away from your house. As wonderful as this appliance is, when it starts acting out it can leave a person feeling frustrated and at his or her wit’s end. If your garbage disposal has been working intermittently or has stopped altogether, call us and we can troubleshoot with you over the phone or send a plumber immediately to your home.
Maintenance Tips
One of the best ways to keep us away from your home is to properly care for your appliance. You can do this by reading the usage instructions for your particular model and by incorporating the following suggestions into your clean-up routine:
- Always run cold water through the disposal while it is in operation for at least 15 seconds longer than it takes to grind up all the food.
- Cut up big pieces of food waste and feed the disposal small amounts at a time.
- Do not put food scraps from food prep into the disposal.
- Only dispose of food waste that comes off of dinner plates, breakfast bowls, serving dishes, pots and pans, and cooking utensils.
- Sharpen the blades by grinding up ice cubes in the disposal once or twice a month.
- Use your disposal daily to avoid the blades and inside from rusting.
Garbage Disposal Replacement
Even if you take pristine care of your disposal it will need to be replaced at some time. When you find yourself in this predicament, our qualified plumbing specialists can help you select a new disposal that is powerful enough for your disposal needs and is priced right for your particular budget. Our garbage disposal installation is always affordable and 100% guaranteed for life.
