Signs You Need Garbage Disposal Repair
Garbage disposal issues can quickly go from minor inconveniences to serious problems. Call our experts for immediate service if you notice signs that you may need a repair, such as:
- Frequent clogs: If your disposal is consistently getting clogged, it could be due to dull blades, a blockage, or issues with the motor.
- Unusual noises: Grinding, rattling, or humming noises suggest a mechanical issue, such as loose parts or a jammed wheel.
- Leaks: Water that pools under your disposal could be caused by a damaged seal, gasket, or cracks in the unit.
- Foul odors: Persistent odors are often caused by trapped food particles or a failing system that doesn’t properly process food.
- Power issues: If your system frequently resets or won’t turn on, a professional can determine if there are electrical issues, faulty wiring, or a burnt-out motor.
Garbage Disposal Replacement & Installation
If you’re adding or upgrading a garbage disposal in your kitchen, contact Mercy Plumbing for superior garbage disposal installation and replacement. Our team can help you choose the right equipment to meet your unique needs and ensure it’s installed precisely and safely.
We can also help you determine if your system needs to be replaced. Most garbage disposals live an average of eight to 15 years, and we can assess whether yours still has more service life left.
Protect Your Disposal by Keeping These Things Out
The best way to extend the lifespan of your garbage disposal is to keep dangerous or damaging items out of it. Never put these items down your disposal:
- Grease, oil, and fats
- Fibrous food like celery and onion skins
- Coffee grounds
- Eggshells
- Bones
- Pits and seeds
- Pasta and rice
- Foreign objects
- Dairy products
- Starchy foods
- Chemicals and harsh cleaners

FAQs
Frequently running water through your disposal can help keep odors away. For a more thorough cleaning, turn off the power and flush the system with hot water, baking soda, and vinegar. Use a dish brush to clean the flaps, and then run the disposal with a few citrus peels and cold water to fully deodorize.
For minor clogs, homeowners can attempt to DIY before calling a professional. Check for any visible debris and remove it with tongs or pliers. You can also try a plunger to loosen a blockage. If this doesn’t work, don’t turn to harsh chemical cleaners. Instead, call our team.
