Garbage Disposal Repair and Garburator Repair

We repair two main types of garbage disposals:

• Continuous feed models operate when you flip a wall or accessory switch. A rubber shield or baffle contains food within the unit and helps the disposal run more quietly than other types.
• Batch feed disposals only activate when the disposal lid is engaged, and the disposal is covered. They take a bit longer to set up but are great for homes with children or people who prefer extra safety.

We can service most major garburator brands, including: 

• InSinkErator (such as Badger 5)
• Whirlaway
• KitchenAid

We can replace any part on your garburator, including:

• Lids and baffles
• Blades
• Gaskets and seals
• Flanges
• Tubing
• Lugs
• Flyweights

If garburator repair, troubleshooting, and maintenance stress you out, contact Mr. Appliance to set up a service that fits into your schedule. Our professionals can quickly and safely address your garburator needs with speedy, expert repair service.

We’ll repair this vital part of your home and allow you to continue benefiting the earth. In households with sewer access, disposals send food waste to wastewater treatment plants where organic solids can be processed into fertilizers. More advanced wastewater plants can even capture biogas from disposal waste for energy production. Getting proper garbage disposal service will allow you to continue contributing to these beneficial processes. Schedule garbage disposal service online or call us.

Garburators can cause significant damage to your hand if you attempt to clear a jam manually. If you are unsure about how to safely clean your garbage disposal, it’s always best to err on the side of caution and call a professional rather than trying to clean or repair the garbage disposal yourself

Check your fuse box or circuit breakers for power issues. Otherwise, locate the small red reset button at the bottom of your system. If it is popped out, the disposal has overheated. Clear the jam and try resetting it. The motor is probably worn out if you have power but no sound.

High-fibre foods, cornhusks, avocado leaves, bones, utensils, and more can jam your disposal. Never put your hand in the disposal to clear this jam. If your disposal has a hole for a socket wrench under the motor, use the wrench to rotate the masher plate and attempt to clear the jam. If you want a professional garburator repair, we are always here to answer your call!

Address clogs by turning off the power at the main disconnect, unplugging the unit, disassembling the trap, and clearing the clog with a drain snake. After reassembly, turn the water on to check if the clog has cleared. Need help? Call Mr. Appliance for professional garbage disposal repair. 

Bones and other foreign objects can cause excessive noise and jam up garbage disposals. Noise may also result from loose mounting screws, broken flyweights, and worn lugs and blades. Address this issue promptly, as some problems, like loose screws, can cause water to leak into the motor and bearings.

Leaks usually indicate a loose sink flange or a worn rubber gasket. However, if the leak is coming from the body of the disposal, the entire unit will have to be replaced. The sooner you call our team, the better we can prevent major damage.
