With years of experience behind us, our plumbers can quickly replace garbage disposal units of all types including:

Batch-feed garbage disposals – These require you to close a hatch before the debris can be ground.

Septic-tank specific models – While uncommon, they connect with septic systems.

How To Prevent Clogged Drains

We’ve seen countless customers clog their disposers and drains with items that should have been thrown in the trash. Garbage disposals are one of the most commonly misused appliances in the home. They’re designed to handle light food residue, and can easily become clogged when overwhelmed with excessive food waste. This will paralyze the kitchen sink pipes and result in a system that won’t drain or that drains slowly.

Below is a list of items that we regularly see clog customers disposals and drains. If you mistakenly get one of these items trapped down your kitchen drain, don’t delay, give us a call to help!

Egg Shells
Celery
Coffee grounds
Corn husks
Onion peels
Bones
Fruit rinds and pits
Grease
