Common Garbage Disposal Issues
When to Call for Repairs
A garbage disposal can be an essential part of any kitchen. A fully-functioning garburator can keep your sink and pipes clean and contributes to the health of your plumbing system. However, any issues with your disposal can impact how you cook, wash or keep your kitchen clean.
Common issues with your garburator can include:
- Abnormal noises
- Frequent resets
- Clogged
- Circuit issues
- Leaks
If you find yourself experiencing any of the above issues with your garbage disposal, try the following before calling in for repairs.
- Test the reset button
- Ensure your disposal is plugged in
- Check your circuit breaker
If your disposal still doesn’t work, let us know, and we’ll handle it!
Full Range of Garbage Disposal Repairs
Abnormal Noises
If you hear a strange sound coming from your garburator, such as a metal-on-metal grinding, it could be the symptom of an internal issue. Over time and with repeated use, metal parts in your disposal can become misaligned and grind together. However, a quick adjustment should be enough to fix the issue. If you hear any strange noises coming from your disposal, call Metro Plumbing And Heating Limited right away.
Frequent Resets
The reset button on your garbage disposal allows your appliance to recover from uncommon situations, such as oversized loads or clogs. If your disposal is functioning well, you probably won’t need to hit the reset button very often. If you find yourself using it more often than usual, it may be a sign that your system needs repairing.
Frequent clogs
Sometimes, even when you maintain proper disposal and wash food particles down the drain in small amounts, you can still wind up with jamming. If you find yourself with strange clogging, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you haven’t kept your disposal clean. Clogging can be a sign of a broader issue with your garbage disposal, so it’s essential to contact a professional to assess it correctly.
Disposal isn’t Running
If your garbage disposal tends to shut off by itself while in use, it could be that a connected circuit is blown. Contact us if your electrical system is working fine, but only your disposal isn’t running. The source of your issue could be a failing or dead motor.
Stop Your Garbage Disposal from Leaking
As time passes, water can seep through areas where your disposal connects to the rest of your plumbing. These leaks can leave puddles beneath your sink and pool on the floor, or they can drip under the disposal itself. Many homeowners mistake these leaks as coming from your dishwasher or sink. Metro Plumbing And Heating Limited always recommends contacting a technician to help you get your disposal back in working condition before water damage sets in.
