Kitchens in Providence and Windtree get heavy use, and disposals here take the hit for it, especially around holidays. The pattern we see most in Mt. Juliet is fibrous food and cooking grease sent down in good faith. A disposal is a grinder, not a trash can, and the drain line behind it agrees.

Simple and Straightforward
Call us and tell us what you are seeing. We find a time that works and confirm it, so you are not waiting around all day.
Your plumber checks the full picture, finds the actual cause, and explains it in plain words before any work starts.

We do the repair, test it under normal use, check for leaks, and clean up before we walk you through what was done.
That sound usually means the motor has power but the flywheel is jammed, often by a small bone, fruit pit, or a piece of silverware. Power off, we clear the jam and free the flywheel with the wrench fitting underneath. If it hums again after a true jam is cleared, the motor may be failing.
A leak at the top flange or dishwasher connection is often repairable. A leak from the bottom of the body usually means an internal seal has failed, and replacement is the honest call. We show you where yours is leaking from before deciding.
Grease, coffee grounds in quantity, potato peels, pasta, rice, and fibrous foods like celery and onion skins are the usual troublemakers. They either coat the drain or mat together. Cold water while grinding, and small batches, keep a disposal happiest.
Yes. Newer InSinkErator and similar models are noticeably quieter and grind finer than older builder units. Tell us that matters when you call, and we will talk through options that fit your sink and cabinet.
Ground food residue coats the splash guard and grinding chamber over time. Ice cubes and citrus peels help for mild odor. If the smell comes with slow draining, the problem may be buildup in the drain line, which we can check.
