For many households in Summerlin, Nevada the garbage disposal is a necessity in the kitchen.

Why Won’t My Garbage Disposal Turn On?

Nothing is quite as irritating as a garbage disposal that won’t turn on. There are a few things that might make this happen such as the following:

Damaged switch – The switch that controls your disposal can fail to operate properly. Usually, all it takes is a few tools and a couple of minutes for our contractors to test and replace the switch to get your disposal working again.

Bad motor or inadequate power supply – Disposal blades cannot spin if the power supply in not adequate. If the motor is bad, or the power supply from your circuit breaker box is bad, the disposal won’t operate. Our technicians can figure out if this is the problem and present you with solutions.

Why Is My Disposal Always Jammed?

Another problem our contractors are used to dealing with is jammed disposals. Usually, the cause of this problem is the type of food waste that you are putting in the disposal. Things like bones, eggs shells, potato skins, onion skins, and expandable food products like pasta and rice resist the grinding action from your disposal’s blades. This can result in frequent problems. Also, refer to the instruction manual that came with your disposal to learn what you can and cannot put in a regular, household disposal.
