How to Maintain Your Garbage Disposal

Ignoring garbage disposal issues can lead to larger plumbing problems, such as clogged drains or leaks, causing damage to your kitchen and potentially leading to costly repairs. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs extend the life of your disposal and keep your kitchen running smoothly.

To keep your garbage disposal in top shape, follow these maintenance tips:

Run cold water while operating the disposal to prevent clogs.

Avoid fibrous foods like celery and potato peels that can wrap around the blades.

Use ice cubes to help clean and sharpen the blades.

Avoid harsh chemicals as they can damage the disposal’s internal parts.

FAQ

How Long Do Garbage Disposals Last?

On average, garbage disposals last about 8-15 years depending on use and maintenance. If your unit is showing signs of wear, it may be time to consider a replacement.

Can I Use My Garbage Disposal For All Types of Food Waste?

No, avoid putting fibrous, starchy, or hard materials like bones, potato peels, and coffee grounds in your garbage disposal, as they can cause jams or clogs.

What Does it Mean If There's Water Leaking Out of The Bottom of My Garbage Disposal?

Unfortunately, it’s likely that the internal lining of your garbage disposal has been compromised and needs to be replaced. Give us a call for over-the-phone pricing!

Why Is There a Smell Coming From My Garbage Disposal?

A foul odor coming from your garbage disposal can indicate food buildup within the unit. Try a mixture of baking soda and vinegar to see if it helps with the smell, if not give us a call as there may be a clog further down.

Our Reviews

See Why Our Customers Rave About Us!

"The service was excellent. The problem was a clogged kitchen sink and a garbage disposal that wouldn't run. The clog was a recurring problem that I tried to fix several times with a plunger and snake. Sam from Golden Rule found the disposal was damaged electrically (electric burnt smell) and needed replacement which he did with a unit from his truck. He snaked the drain pipe and hit a blockage pretty far in. He worked hard at it and the blockage finally broke up. It is great having full use of a sink and disposal again. The invoice was reasonable."

"Prompt and professional service every time! Would recommend Golden Rule to anyone for all plumbing needs. From leaky faucets, to garbage disposals, to fixing problematic pipes, this team has it covered. 10/10"

"We just moved to our new house and needed to have our sink ,faucett, garbage disposal and water line for our future dishwasher. Called Golden Rule and they sent Brett over. Brett did a meticulous job and very professional. We highly recommend Golden Rule with any of your plumbing needs. Profesional, clean and communicative."

"Kyle and Mark were great to deal with. Kyle was super upfront about costs and the scheduling process was really simple. Mark did a fabulous job on the install - new sink, new garbage disposal and new faucet as well as rebuilding the under part of the cabinet. We couldn’t be happier with the result! Great attitudes and reasonable prices. Will definitely be using them again in the future!"
