You rely a lot on your garbage disposal, so when it’s not working it can cause a serious disruption in the home. Some of the most common garbage disposal problems we see include:
Jamming – Whether it’s from hard objects such as bones or shells, or from overloading the disposal with too much material, a jammed disposal needs to be looked at.
Failure to turn on – There could be several things wrong with a disposal that won’t turn on. Your best bet is to call a professional right away.
Leaking – Faulty O-rings or broken seals can cause your unit to leak. A leaking unit can cause mold and other structural issues to your counter. Call Cardinal Plumbing, Heating & Air Inc. to take a look at it.
