A garbage disposal should last approximately 8 to 15 years with regular maintenance. During that time frame, it’s common to experience issues. From blades that won’t move to abnormal sounds, our team can quickly diagnose disposal issues and come up with a plan for repair.
There are simple things you can do to keep your disposal working properly. This includes keeping the drain clean and avoiding inserting the wrong items. Avoid pieces of bone, starchy food, fruit, and vegetable peels.
What about routine garbage disposal maintenance? You should periodically put a mixture of baking soda and vinegar into your disposal to clean it. Always run water for several minutes when you are doing dishes, even if you’re done using your unit. You can also have a plumber from Frontline Plumbing periodically inspect your garbage disposal to ensure it is working as it should.
As your disposal ages, you may find it doesn’t chop up food very easily. This is usually due to dull blades. Most units don’t allow you to replace the blades as they are riveted to the rotor plate. Instead, you’ll need to invest in a new garbage disposal. We can help you select a model that meets your needs while adhering to your budget.
A common issue homeowners experience is a disposal that doesn’t turn on when you flip the switch. Check for a trip in the circuit breaker. You may simply need to press the reset button for the unit or unplug it for a few seconds before plugging it back in.
If these steps fail, we can inspect your disposal to see if the motor is malfunctioning or if there is a jam in the unit. If you see debris inside the drain that’s preventing the disposal from moving, turn off the power to the unit before removing the debris with pliers.
