Garbage Disposal in Greater San Francisco

If water is leaking from the bottom of your garbage disposal, stop using it and cut power at the switch. Bottom leaks often mean an internal failure, and replacement is commonly the fix, but our plumber can confirm with a quick diagnostic and give an upfront estimate. We handle diagnosis, repair or replacement, testing, and cleanup.

Quick checks:

• Turn off the switch and avoid running water.
• Place a bowl or towel under the unit.
• Don’t reach inside; wait for a technician.

A humming disposal usually means the motor has power but the impeller is jammed or the unit has tripped. First, cut power and try a safe reset before you call.

Quick checks:

• Turn the switch off and unplug or flip the breaker.
• Press the red reset button on the bottom.
• Insert a 1/4-inch hex key in the bottom socket and turn both ways to free the jam.
• Use tongs/pliers to remove objects; never reach in.
• Verify the outlet/GFCI has power. If it still hums, we provide fast diagnostic and repair in Novato, Petaluma, and nearby areas.
