"Following the recent water leak incident, I wanted to provide a detailed update. After our initial assessment, Jarrett from Aqua plumbing, visited the site and concluded that a complete line replacement was necessary. While I initially held reservations about this diagnosis, I subsequently contacted Jared the owner of Aqua plumbing. Jared made a significant effort, traveling from Sandpoint to the site (a considerable distance), to independently verify Jarrett assessment. He dedicated approximately five hours – including travel time and on-site troubleshooting – to thoroughly investigate the issue. His diligent work confirmed Jarrett’s diagnosis of the required line replacement. I deeply appreciate Jared’s commitment to resolving this issue and his generous contribution of time and expertise at no additional cost. This underscores his dedication to customer satisfaction and highlights the importance of thorough diagnostics in these situations. also, he’s a man of his word. Words of wisdom: When you stop listening you stop learning sincerely Rick Costello"

Garbage Disposal Repair questions, answered by experts

Garbage disposals last an average of seven years but can function well past 10 years. However, as time goes on and more food is ground, the grinding plates will slowly lose their edge and need replacing. A motor likely won’t last 10 or more years, but you should be able to get a minimum of five years at least, even under heavy usage. 

These appliances certainly increase the number of things allowed down the drain, but they’re not foolproof. There are several items you shouldn’t put in your garbage disposal, according to manufacturers and technicians. Don’t put coffee grounds down the drain. The same goes for eggshells, potato peels, hard foods, onion skins, and any dry, expandable food. Most importantly, never put grease or oils down the drain.

Most garbage disposals have a reset button that can be triggered with a tool as simple and accessible as your index finger. That said, if you need to perform a more in-depth troubleshooting step, like manually moving the arms inside the unit or rotating the impeller plate, a hex wrench is the most common tool you’ll need. Most garbage disposals come with a hex wrench.

These appliances do unscrew, but you need to disconnect everything properly when you replace your garbage disposal. Make sure you shut the power off to the area first and check that it’s off with a voltage detector. Disconnect the main drain line and P-trap, and then disconnect the dishwasher drain line if you have one connected. You can then unscrew your garbage disposal using a disposal wrench. Just make sure you disconnect the electrical lines before removing your appliance.

Generally speaking, it’s absolutely worth it to repair a garbage disposal, so long as it’s eight years old or younger. Once you pass that eight-year threshold, it depends on the issue. If it’s a simple jam and the core components remain unaffected, call a local plumber for a quick repair. If it seems like the motor is wearing down, spring for a replacement unit.
