Garbage Disposal Repair in Aliso Viejo

Garbage disposals can quit working for a number of different reasons. What we actually find most of the time when we arrive at a garbage disposal repair service call is that there is nothing wrong with the garbage disposal at all. Clogs in the drain beyond the garbage disposal are the most common culprit for people assuming they have an issue with their garbage disposal. Garbage disposals are amazing at chopping up certain types of food scraps such as fruit and vegetables. However, they are not designed to have things such as oils and fats dumped in them. Everything that goes into a garbage disposal gets sent down a drainage pipe just like a normal sink or shower. Oils or fats that are dumped into the garbage disposal when they are hot will quickly change to a solid form. Once they have transformed into a semi-solid state, other objects that are put down the garbage disposal will become lodged in the fats or oils. All of the items being sent down the garbage disposal and combining with the oils will cause a full pipe clog which keeps water from draining. The good news is, if you have a clog in your drainage pipe beyond the garbage disposal, Pristine Plumbing can quickly remove the clog using a drain cleaning technique called hydro-jetting.

Garbage disposals can also stop working due to an obstruction in the impeller. The impeller is the part of the garbage disposal that grinds things up. Throughout our many years of providing garbage disposal repair services to Aliso Viejo residents, we have seen almost every type of object imaginable lodged inside of a garbage disposal: Broken glass, toys, bottle caps, food bones, and silverware just to name a few. When there is something lodged in a garbage disposals impeller, the obstruction may not be the only issue. When there is an obstruction and the garbage disposal continues to run, it can cause damage to the motor. Additionally, an obstruction may also cause an electrical issue such as a circuit breaker to be tripped. A vast majority of garbage disposal related injuries occur when an individual who is inexperienced dealing with garbage disposals reaches into a garbage disposal and attempts to manually remove an obstruction. If you do not have the knowledge needed to work on a garbage disposal, please do not risk your safety. Garbage disposal repairs are inexpensive and are not worth a potentially severe injury. Pristine Plumbing can identify if an obstruction is the only issue you are having with your garbage disposal and quickly resolve the issue at the best prices.

Even though garbage disposals seem indestructible, all of them will eventually grind their last fruit rind and need replaced.
