Common Garbage Disposal Problems

Here are several garbage disposal issues we regularly fix:

Garbage disposal won’t run.
Disposal makes noise but isn’t running correctly.
Disposal is leaking.
Disposal reeks and the odor won’t diffuse.
Water won’t drain or is draining slowly through the disposal.

You should always drizzle cold water into the garbage disposal while crushing foods. Cold water solidifies fats that have been poured in. This makes it easier for the system to shred them.

Garbage disposals also require regular use to avoid corrosion.

Fixing a Leaky Garbage Disposal

A leaky garbage disposal can be restored if you can locate the part that's creating the problem.

If you find a worn out or leaky part, replace it. Don’t use plumber’s putty to fill cracks.

Disposals may leak over time due to:

Decay on the seals
Loose pipes
Flanges or gaskets that have dried out and split
Cracks in the garbage disposal body

Some disposals are linked to the dishwasher, which provides self-cleaning. This area commonly experiences leaks as well.

These problems can be repaired except for cracks 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 a lot of time to locate and complete simple repairs, so factor that into the cost when choosing to tackle the problem on your own.

Having a professional technician like one from Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning determine and take care of the problem can help catch other components that may be about to break. That way, you won’t find yourself repairing the same disposal two weeks later.
