Is your garbage disposal humming but not spinning, leaking, or just completely dead? Davis Plumbing and Heating Inc. provides fast, affordable garbage disposal repair near you throughout Riverside County. Most repairs take under an hour, and we carry common replacement parts on our trucks.
Common Garbage Disposal Problems We Fix
- Disposal won’t turn on — often just a tripped reset button, but could be a wiring or motor issue
- Humming but not spinning — jammed flywheel; we can free it without damage
- Leaking garbage disposal — could be the sink flange, dishwasher connection, or discharge pipe
- Disposal making grinding or screeching sounds — worn-out bearings or foreign object in the chamber
- Disposal keeps tripping the reset — overheating due to jam or failing motor
- Slow draining — buildup in the drain line below the disposal
Garbage Disposal Replacement
If your disposal is more than 8-10 years old or the motor has failed, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repair. We install InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, and other major brands. We can recommend the right horsepower for your household’s needs.
What NOT to Put in Your Garbage Disposal
Protect your disposal by avoiding: grease and oils, fibrous foods (celery, artichokes), bones, coffee grounds, and expandable foods (pasta, rice). These are the most common causes of disposal damage in Riverside County homes.
