Why Kansas City Homeowners Trust Us for Garbage Disposal Repair
Kansas City kitchens deal with a mix of old and new plumbing systems, varied food waste types, and everything from large family dinners to quick solo meals. Our city’s older homes may still be wired or plumbed in ways that newer systems aren’t compatible with—something many chain companies miss.

Common Garbage Disposal Problems We Repair
Garbage disposals are designed to simplify kitchen cleanup—but when they go wrong, the results are anything but simple. Here are some of the most common issues we see and solve:
Humming But Not Grinding
A jammed flywheel or seized-up motor can cause your disposal to hum without doing any real work. We’ll safely release the jam and test for further damage.
No Power or Frequent Resets
If your unit doesn’t turn on or keeps tripping the breaker, it could be faulty wiring, a bad switch, or a worn-out motor. We troubleshoot every connection point to pinpoint the issue.
Leaks Under the Sink
Leaks at the flange or dishwasher connection are common and can cause water damage quickly. We’ll seal it tight or replace components as needed.
Foul Odors
Sometimes odors are caused by trapped food or bacteria in hard-to-clean areas. We’ll inspect the system and flush or sanitize the chamber.
Slow Draining
A clogged drain line or a failing grinder can keep food from clearing out. We clear clogs thoroughly and check your blades for wear.
Rattling or Unusual Noises
Loose parts or foreign objects inside can cause a racket. We disassemble carefully and realign or replace parts as needed.
