Common Garbage Disposal Problems

A working garbage disposal saves time and effort in the kitchen. Unfortunately, it’s not always clear what should and shouldn’t go in them, which results in clogs or damage. Here are a few problems we commonly handle:

  • Garbage disposal won’t start.
  • Disposal makes noise but won’t run correctly.
  • Disposal is leaking.
  • An unpleasant odor has formed.
  • Water won’t drain or is draining gradually through the disposal.

You should always run cold water into the disposal while it’s on since cold water solidifies any oil poured in, making it easier for the blades to break waste down. Garbage disposals also need to be used regularly to avoid the formation of rust.

Fixing a Leaky Garbage Disposal

A leaky garbage disposal is easy to fix if you can find the root cause. Any old or damaged parts should be replaced. Disposals may start to leak due to:

  • Deterioration of the seals.
  • Loose pipes.
  • Cracked flanges or gaskets.
  • Damage to the garbage disposal itself.
  • Some disposals are hooked up to your dishwasher, allowing for self-cleaning. This connection can leak if it’s not securely fastened.

Most leaks can be fixed except when in the body or interior lining of the disposal. If this is your problem, you will need to get a new garbage disposal.

It can take a DIYer an entire afternoon to discover and complete this and other simple repairs, so keep that in mind when contemplating calling a pro. Having an Expert technician like one from Neal Harris Service Experts diagnose and repair your problem offers time to notice other components about to fail. You can resolve both issues right then and there.
