Garbage Disposal Doctors On Call
Your garbage disposal is one of the hardest working appliances in your kitchen. Day in and day out, it grinds up food scraps to keep your sink running smoothly and prevent plumbing clogs. Robust and built to last, garbage disposals can serve honorably for a decade or more. But even the heartiest units break down occasionally. Blades need to be sharpened, clogs removed, leaks sealed, and switches rewired.
If wear and tear or malfunctions are making your disposal more hassle than helper, Service Minds Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is ready to help. Call our licensed Fort Myers plumbers to diagnose and fix any disposal problem today.
Diagnosis and Triage
It is important to know when things are malfunctioning with your garbage disposal. Something as trivial as bad smells from time to time, or weird sounds can indicate a minor issue. But if you don’t get that minor issue diagnosed and repaired quickly, it can become a major one.
Unnatural Noises: When your disposal is brand new, it will make a smooth whirring sound as it grinds. When that calm, quiet whirring becomes a clunky grinding noise or rattling, it is a problem.
Foul Smells: When food goes down the disposal, it might smell. But once it has been processed, the odors go away. If that foul smell continues long after disposal, there might be food trapped somewhere in the disposal. Without a repair, that trapped food will continue to decompose, making the smell worse.
Frequent Overheating: If the garbage disposal overheats a lot, and has to be reset frequently, the blades might need sharpening.
Pooling Water: If you see puddles of water pooling around the base of your disposal or under the sink, you have a plumbing problem. Things like cracked housing, broken gaskets, or work out seals can be repaired by our local plumbers in Fort Myers, FL with a single call.
Loss of Power: When your power turns off entirely, and nothing is working, you need Fort Myers, FL garbage disposal repair to help diagnose a burned out motor or other electrical malfunction.
