Identifying the Problem With Your Garbage Disposal

Rattling Noises

If a part gets loose, it’ll rattle around when you try to run the disposal. You’ll hear a metal-on-metal sound that’ll make you wanna turn your disposal off right away. Your instincts are right. Rattling means you should call as soon as you can for repairs.

Humming Noises

A humming sound might seem less dangerous at first, but usually it means something’s jammed up in the blades. If you keep running it while the blades are stuck, the motor is gonna burn out. Shut off your disposal right away and call Morris-Jenkins.

Bad Sink Odors

Bad sink odors can come from chunks of food that your disposal can’t grind up. The blades might be dull or the motor might be weak. Either way, it means it needs repairs.

Clogged Sink

If your disposal isn’t working right, it’s gonna clog up the sink. Especially if you keep feeding food into it. Some types of food can swell up or slip through the blades and cause clogs, so be careful what ends up in the garbage disposal.

Why Do Garbage Disposal Problems Develop?

Garbage disposals are tough, but they're not indestructible. They work hard to make clean-up easier, but this constant effort can wear them down. Whether it's a stuck motor, jammed blades, or blockages, there's usually a reason behind the issue—and understanding these causes can help avoid them in the future. Here are some common reasons why garbage disposal problems occur:

Overfilling the Disposal: Too much food waste at once can overload the system, leading to blockages or a stuck motor.
Dumping the Wrong Things Down the Drain: Hard items like bones or stringy foods like celery can damage the blades or jam the system.
Neglecting Maintenance: Without regular cleaning or attention, debris can build up, causing blockages and jammed blades.
Foreign Items: Non-food objects like cutlery or small bits of plastic can accidentally fall into the disposal and cause obstructions.
Aging or Worn Components: Over time, parts like the motor, blades, or seals can wear down, causing malfunctions.

If you're facing any of these issues, it's always better to make sure your disposal is in good shape rather than dealing with a major problem later.

Is It Time to Replace the System?

There's a fine line between fixing and replacing, especially with garbage disposals. They're not the most expensive appliances (though they're definitely among the most useful), so sometimes the cost of a repair might be close to the price of a new model. And if your disposal has been around for 8–10 years, it's worth considering a replacement to avoid future problems. That doesn't mean there aren't plenty of reasons to choose garbage disposal repair in Cornelius over getting a new one, though.

If the problem is minor, like a stuck blade or a blocked drain, a quick repair can have your disposal up and running again without needing a new unit. And if your disposal is fairly new and hasn't been giving you regular trouble, fixing it is likely the most economical choice.

When you work with Morris-Jenkins, we'll lay out all your options and help you make the best decision! We're here for you, and we'll make sure your system is working as well as new.
