Garbage disposals are a wonderful thing to have in your kitchen. They help break down and dispose of foods that typically would be thrown out in the trash. This helps to eliminate having stinky food sitting in the garbage can. However, as with any appliance, they will eventually malfunction and need repair.

Garburator Repair Service

Several things can happen, that will require having your garburator repaired. The most likely cause of a broken garburator is when the device gets jammed. There are several things that can cause the unit to jam, such as food clogging up the disposal, or some other object that is obstructing the blades from spinning. If you notice that your disposal is not spinning when you turn it on, it is important that you turn off the disposal immediately. This may involve just flipping the switch, and or unplugging it from the outlet under the sink.

If you can see the obstruction in the disposal, you can try to remove it yourself. A word of caution: never stick your bare hands into the disposal area! Try using a pair of tongs, or something similar, to remove whatever is jamming the unit. However, if you are unable to remove the object, it is best to contact a professional to disconnect the unit and remove whatever debris is causing the problem.

Typically, if a garbage disposal is acting up, you are going to hear it. The unit may make a humming noise, but you will notice that nothing is happening. The blades may have stopped spinning, or if it is spinning, the food is not breaking down. Another sign of a broken disposal is unpleasant odours coming from the area. This could mean that the blades are worn down and cannot cut up the food like it once did. This may mean that the blades need to be replaced.

If you turn on your unit, and nothing happens at all, there are some things you can try. First, you can try to reset it. Try pressing that and see if the unit responds, or you may just need to unplug it for a minute or so. Make sure that the device is plugged in and has power. If you have done these steps and the disposal is still not working, call us for a professional assessment to determine the exact repairs and or replacement of your unit.
