Reliable Garbage Disposal Repair

Clogging is the most common reason homeowners reach out to us for garbage disposal repair in Keizer. User error can sometimes lead to clogs. If it’s an isolated issue, you likely don’t need a professional repair. That said, any regular clogging is not normal and suggests a more serious problem. Perhaps the blades are dull, or there’s an accumulation of grease.

Garbage disposals shouldn’t smell bad. If you’re experiencing foul odors, you shouldn’t ignore them. The first step is to clean the garbage disposal with vinegar and baking soda. If that doesn’t work, you have a more serious issue that requires a professional. Maybe there’s a deeper clog in a plumbing vent or some other aspect of the plumbing.

Poor performance in general is another reason to call a plumber. In fact, homeowners can save money on their garbage disposals through proactive maintenance. Replacing dull blades is quick and inexpensive. The performance that comes from not doing that in a timely manner causes big headaches down the road. Be mindful that it’s also necessary to have us lubricate the motor and replace bad ball bearings.

You may have to decide between repair or garbage disposal replacement. The good news is that there are only so many things that can go wrong with a garbage disposal. Most repairs don’t take a lot of time and are relatively inexpensive. That said, if you’ve had the unit for eight years or more, it’s time to at least consider replacement. Repairs are likely to become a more common occurrence.

Replacement is also an opportunity to re-assess your needs. You get to benefit from innovations as well. There have been many of those over the last decade or so. Higher-horsepower models are more prevalent and affordable. Many systems now have auto-reverse to help stop clogging. Smart features are available, and sink-top switches are a trendy alternative to wall switches.
