Garbage Disposal Repair Services

If you need garbage disposal repair in El Cajon, don’t hesitate to schedule service with our expert plumbers. We provide honest, high-quality plumbing repairs to homeowners throughout the area, working hard to maintain our reputation for excellence.

Common garbage disposal issues we fix

Some of the most common reasons we’re called for kitchen sink garbage disposal repair are:

Clogs: Grease, coffee grounds, eggshells, fibrous foods, and insufficient water are the most common reasons garbage disposals clog up.
Jams: Hard items and debris falling into the disposal can cause the blades to jam, while fibrous foods like banana peels can wrap around the blades and make it difficult for them to move.
Leaks: Leaking garbage disposals usually happen when the seals and connections to your plumbing system are loose or corroded. They can also occur if the unit is damaged or cracked.
Smells: Food and grease buildup will begin to rot if the disposal’s not thoroughly cleaned, and mold and mildew can grow. These issues cause bad smells to emanate from the garbage disposal.
Slow drainage: Over time, worn-down blades will allow larger food particles to get down the drain, eventually causing clogs that lead to slow sink drainage.
Sounds: Depending on the sound you’re hearing, strange noises could be due to foreign objects like a fork in the disposal, mechanical problems, loose parts rattling around, or large clogs.
Not grinding: A motor issue, worn-out parts, electrical problems, or clogs will stop the disposal from grinding up your food waste.

Comfort Bros plumbers are excellent troubleshooters. They’ll fix your leaking garbage disposal, find the reason it won’t turn on, or figure out why it’s humming but won’t grind.

Why professional repair saves time and money

Some of the reasons hiring a Comfort Bros expert will save you time and money include:

Faster diagnosis of what’s causing the problem.
DIY repairs may void your manufacturer’s warranty.
You could cause further damage to the disposal and your home’s plumbing if you make a mistake, which will cost more time and money to fix.

It’s also much safer to hire a professional plumber, as garbage disposals are connected to your home’s electrical system and have sharp blades inside.

Garbage Disposal Installation and Replacement

Call Comfort Bros if you’re considering replacing or putting a new garbage disposal in your home. Our experienced plumbers provide expert garbage disposal installation in El Cajon, doing it right, with clean, respectful service you can count on.

When it’s time to replace your garbage disposal

Some signs it’s time to schedule garbage disposal replacement service are:

Frequent breakdowns: Motor failures, frequent clogs, leaks, and other problems will happen more often when your garbage disposal is reaching the end of its life.
Costly repairs: If the cost to fix the unit is high, it may be a good time to upgrade your system.
Age: The average lifespan of a garbage disposal is 8 to 15 years. If yours falls within that timeline and is showing signs of wearing out, it’s time for a replacement.

Choosing the right garbage disposal for your kitchen

Some questions to consider when choosing your new garbage disposal include:

How many people live in your household?
How often do you cook?
What will fit your plumbing system?
How much grinding power do you need?
Is quiet operation a priority for you?

Comfort Bros plumbers are qualified to help you decide which type of disposal will work best for the needs of your household. Contact us today for a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it cheaper to repair or replace a garbage disposal?

Small repairs will be cheaper than a full replacement, but if your garbage disposal needs frequent or large repairs, sometimes replacing it is the more cost-effective solution. Don’t be afraid to ask for estimates from your plumber so you can make an informed decision when faced with garbage disposal repair costs.

Can you install a garbage disposal in any kitchen sink?

No, you need to ensure the sink and plumbing are compatible with a garbage disposal. An expert plumber will be able to tell you your options after taking a look at your kitchen sink and discussing your household needs.

Are there quiet garbage disposal models you can install?

Yes, quiet garbage disposal models exist. They come with extras like sink baffles, extra insulation, and vibration-reduction features to keep noise to a minimum.
