Garbage Disposal Hums But Doesn’t Grind
If your disposal is humming, it is getting electricity. The problem is with the motor or the blade not functioning correctly. First, you can try to reset the disposal using the button on the bottom or side of the unit. If your disposal still isn’t working, it will need a more thorough repair. Give us a call and will an Olde Town plumber out to take a look and get the disposal grinding again.
Garbage Disposal won’t Turn On
If your garbage disposal won’t turn on at all, it may not be receiving electricity. First look to be sure the disposal is still plugged in. Then see if the electrical breaker for the unit has tripped. If the electricity connections look fine, the garbage disposal motor may have burned out. Our plumbers will investigate to see if there is a simple repair for your disposal, but we can also install a new garbage disposal if the unit is unrepairable. Give Olde Town Plumbing a call today.
Garbage Disposal won’t Drain
If the disposal won’t drain, it may be a problem with the disposal, but it may simply be too much solid material in the unit or in the drain. The Olde Town team will find the problem and get your disposal working again.
Garbage Disposal Drains into the Dishwasher
Wastewater draining into your dishwasher can be upsetting. When your disposal drains into the dishwasher it may be because the disposal is clogged or because the drain itself is clogged. Our plumbers will help determine the cause and will perform professional drain cleaning services if the drains are the problem.
Foul Smells Coming from Garbage Disposal
The remains of food particles in the disposal can lead to unpleasant smells in your disposal and kitchen sink. You can clean your unit with a couple of simple steps. First, pour a cup full of ice cubes into the disposal and turn the unit on until the ice has been ground up. Follow this by putting a few spoonsful of baking soda into the disposal and then pour in a ¼ cup of vinegar. Let the vinegar and baking soda react for several minutes, then flush the unit with water.
If this doesn’t fix the problem, give Olde Town Plumbing a call and our technicians will locate the cause of the issue and fix your smelly food disposal in no time.

Disposal Repair FAQs
Common Garbage Disposal Questions
Why Won’t My garbage disposal turn on?
Garbage disposals can get jammed when hard objects, like fruit pits or chicken bones, get stuck in the blades of the disposal. See our list of items that shouldn’t be put in the disposal.
Is it worth it to repair a garbage disposal?
Repairing your disposal can often be a cost-effective solution. However, each situation is different and replacing your disposal may be the better option if your disposal is old, has problems regularly, is rusty, or needs an expensive repair.


How long should a garbage disposal last?
A quality garbage disposal that is used correctly according to manufacturer guidelines will usually last between 10-15 years. However, water quality and misuse can both reduce the expected life of a disposal.
Can I repair my garbage disposal myself?
Yes, some repairs can easily be done by the homeowner. Whenever trying to fix your garbage disposal, always unplug the unit first. If there is no outlet, you should make sure your garbage disposal is turned off. To be on the safe side, you should even turn off the circuit breaker to the garbage disposal.
Use a flashlight and look into the garbage disposal. If you can see the object causing the jam, try to remove it with pliers or tongs.
Once you remove the object, you can turn the power back on. Remember to press the reset button on the bottom or side of the disposal to restore the unit to working order. Then check to see if it is working and if the water runs freely down the drain.
If your garbage disposal still fails to operate, and you need one of our expert technicians, give us a call. We’ll come out and get your garbage disposal up and running again.
We also replace and install new garbage disposal units. And if you are looking to remodel with a new sink, we do that too!
