Common Garbage Disposal Problems We Fix
Hums but Won’t Spin
Almost always a jam, usually cleared with an Allen wrench in the reset hole underneath the unit. This is one of the fastest, most affordable fixes we do.
Won’t Turn On at All
Often just needs the reset button pressed, located on the bottom of the unit. If that doesn’t work, a tripped breaker or a failed motor can also be the cause.
Leaking Underneath the Sink
Typically a worn seal at the sink flange, a loose connection at the dishwasher inlet, or a cracked housing on an older unit.
Persistent Bad Odor
Usually trapped food debris that a reset or basic cleaning won’t clear, sometimes combined with a worn splash guard that’s letting waste sit rather than flushing through.
Loud Grinding Noise or Repeated Breaker Trips
Often something hard caught in the grind chamber, like glass or a utensil, or a motor that’s wearing out and drawing too much current.
Before calling, try the reset button on the bottom of the unit and check for a tripped breaker — it solves more disposal calls than anything else.
Brands We Repair
InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, and Whirlpool, standard and high horsepower models.
Repair or Replace?
Garbage disposals typically last 8 to 12 years. Most repairs, clearing a jam, replacing a seal, resetting the unit, cost far less than a new disposal and installation, so repair is almost always the right call unless the motor itself has failed on an older unit.
Garbage Disposal Repair Cost
Minor repairs (clearing a jam, reset) run $75 to $130, mid-range repairs (seal or flange replacement) $130 to $220, and major repairs like a full unit replacement $220 to $350. We confirm your exact price before starting any work.
