Services
Won't run, jammed, leaking, slow drain. We troubleshoot, fix what's fixable, and install new units when it's time.
About This Service
Garbage disposals are simple machines, but they fail often — and most failures look more dramatic than they are. We diagnose disposal issues quickly: jammed (often a single fix), tripped breaker (usually the reset button), failed motor (replacement time), or a leak. Repair when it's fixable, replace when it's not.
What We Do
Free the impeller with a hex wrench (free fix). If something's actually wedged in there, we extract it.
Tripped overload switch, failed switch, bad wiring, or dead motor — we narrow it down in minutes.
Could be the sink flange, the dishwasher connection, the drain elbow, or the housing. Repair vs. replace depends on the source.
Often a clogged trap or drain line, not the disposal itself.
When the motor's gone or the housing leaks, replace. We install ½-, ¾-, and 1-hp units from InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, and others.
Adding a disposal where none existed — requires switch wiring and a dishwasher knockout if applicable.
Counter-mounted air switch instead of a wall switch — useful for islands and counters without nearby outlets.
Sometimes the right answer is no disposal at all — we can remove it and replace with a standard sink drain.
Why Paloma
Most disposal problems aren't motor failures — they're jams, switches, or wiring. We try the cheap fix first.
InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen — we install what's reliable and has parts available. No off-brand surprises.
Disposals aren't for every kitchen. If you don't actually use yours, we can remove it and simplify your plumbing.
