FAQs

What are common signs that my garbage disposal needs repair?

Common signs include unusual noises, frequent clogs, unpleasant odors, water leaks, and the unit not turning on or off properly. If you notice any of these issues, it’s a good idea to have a professional in Seymour take a look at your garbage disposal.

Can I repair my garbage disposal myself?

While some minor issues can be handled with basic troubleshooting, such as resetting the unit or clearing minor clogs, many repair tasks require professional expertise. Incorrect handling can lead to further damage or personal injury, so it’s advisable to consult a licensed plumber for significant repairs.

How often should I have my garbage disposal inspected?

It’s recommended to have your garbage disposal inspected annually as part of your regular plumbing maintenance. Regular inspections can help identify potential issues early and ensure your disposal unit remains in good working condition.

What can cause my garbage disposal to leak?

Leaks can be caused by several factors including loose connections, damaged seals or gaskets, cracks in the disposal unit, or issues with the drain lines. Identifying the exact cause usually requires a thorough inspection by a professional plumber.

What should I avoid putting down my garbage disposal?

Avoid putting fibrous foods like celery, potato peels, and corn husks; hard items such as bones and fruit pits; grease and oil; and non-food items down the disposal. These can cause clogs, damage the blades, or lead to other operational issues.

How can I maintain my garbage disposal to extend its lifespan?

To maintain your garbage disposal, regularly run cold water while using it to help solidify and chop waste, avoid overloading the unit with large quantities of food at once, clean it with a mixture of ice cubes and rock salt, and occasionally grind citrus peels to keep it smelling fresh.

What our customers say

Jorge and Steven were here today to install a new garbage disposal. They were very knowledgeable and did an excellent job. And, not only that...they had great personalities and we could tell they enjoyed their jobs. They are perfect examples that show us that Hep is a top-notch company made that way by their dedicated employees. I love the $7 prices and have already begun referring Hep to several of my neighbors. Keep up the good work! Don and Margo Peltz

Jorge Saldana is a professional and personable person! He took care of installing a new kitchen faucet for us and installing a new garbage disposal. We didn’t realize the disposal would need to be replaced yet we’re so glad he did. The disposal had been there since the house was built in 2004. It had stopped working . Jorge saw another issue we had under the kitchen sink. So thankful for his good assessment, knowledge and training.He replaced 2 emergency shut off valves that were also leaking . Because of a couple of things that popped up while assessing, he was here 3 days in a row for shorter periods of time because of my work schedule . While Working steadily, he educated me along the way in answering my questions about the process, fees, model numbers of new equipment etc. I’m very pleased with the work Jorge did! Thank you, HEP Cleveland for sending him our way.

Replaced grinder/sewage pump. BBUR and Jorge did a great job under terrible weather conditions. They were very courteous and professional. And the office notified me and replaced the pump again when they recognize that the supply house gave them the incorrect pump.
