Garbage Disposal Repair Services for All Types of Units
Not sure what kind of garbage disposal you have? No problem! Our team in Scottsdale & East Valley is experienced in handling both continuous-feed and batch-feed units. We'll know exactly what to do to fix your disposal.
Common Issues We Fix:
- The garbage disposal has no power.
Before calling us, check for tripped circuit breakers and try resetting your unit. If the problem persists, the motor is likely worn out and the entire unit will need professional replacement.
- The garbage disposal is jammed.
Foods like high-fiber items, cornhusks, avocado peels, bones, and utensils can cause a jam. We can help you clear it by rotating the masher plate with a socket wrench. Just remember, never put your hand on the disposal.
- The garbage disposal drain is clogged.
Turn off the power, disassemble the trap, and use a drain snake to clear the clog. After reassembly, turn the water on to check if the clog is gone. If you need assistance, we're here to help.
- The garbage disposal is making excessive noise.
Excessive noise is often caused by foreign objects, loose screws, broken flyweights, or worn parts. Don't wait too long to have it serviced, as loose screws can lead to water damage.
- The garbage disposal is leaking.
Leaks may be due to a loose sink flange or a worn rubber gasket. In some cases, the unit may need to be replaced. The sooner you reach out to us, the better we can prevent major damage.

Know When to Replace Your Garbage Disposal
Is it time to say goodbye to your old garbage disposal? Look out for these signs:
- The disposal won't turn on, even though there's no power issue.
- Water is leaking from the body of the disposal.
- The appliance keeps needing frequent resets.
If you're experiencing any of these issues, there are likely serious problems with the motor, wiring, or the unit itself. While some of these issues can be fixed with repair, it's often more cost-effective to opt for a replacement. If the problem is with flyweights, blades, or flanges, replacing the entire unit might be the best solution. Our team at Mr. Appliance® of Scottsdale is here to help you make the right decision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Replacing a garbage disposal: How difficult is it?
On a DIY scale of 1 to 10, replacing a garbage disposal falls between 7 and 10. However, the level of difficulty also depends on your level of handiness. Garbage disposals have various parts and plumbing connections. It is recommended to hire a licensed professional for the job to ensure effectiveness.
Should I replace the blade in my garbage disposal?
No, we do not recommend replacing the blade. While it is possible to purchase a replacement blade plate (also known as a shredding plate), the cost of this part is typically 25% to 30% of a brand-new garbage disposal. In addition, it may not be feasible to replace this part in certain units. It is more practical to replace the entire unit instead.
