FAQs
Why is my garbage disposal humming but not working?
This often indicates a jam. We’ll diagnose the cause and safely clear it or recommend replacement if needed.
What causes disposal leaks?
Leaks can come from the mounting flange, drain connections, dishwasher line, or the disposal body itself.
Can you install a disposal I already bought?
Yes. We can install customer-supplied disposals and ensure leak-free, secure connections.
Can a disposal cause the sink to drain slowly?
Yes. A jam or clog in the disposal or drain line can slow drainage and cause backups.
