Frequently Asked Questions
What is a garburator?
A garburator, also known as a garbage disposal, is a kitchen appliance installed beneath the sink that grinds food waste into small particles so it can safely pass through your plumbing system.
Why is my garburator humming but not working?
A humming sound usually indicates the motor is receiving power but the grinding components are jammed. This may be caused by food debris, foreign objects, or a seized flywheel. A professional inspection can determine the exact cause.
Why is my garburator leaking?
Leaks can develop from worn seals, damaged housings, loose plumbing connections, deteriorated mounting assemblies, or cracked disposal units. Identifying the source early can help prevent cabinet and flooring damage.
Can a clogged garburator cause my kitchen sink to back up?
Yes. Food waste buildup inside the disposal or drain line can restrict water flow, causing slow drainage or complete sink backups.
Should I repair or replace my garbage disposal?
If the unit is relatively new and the problem is minor, repair is often the most economical option. Older units with motor failure, significant corrosion, or repeated repairs are usually better candidates for replacement.
How long does a garbage disposal installation take?
Most standard garburator installations can be completed during a single service visit, although installation time may vary depending on your plumbing configuration.
Do you install customer-supplied garburators?
Yes. If you’ve already purchased a new garbage disposal, our plumbers can professionally install it and ensure it operates safely and correctly.
Can I put all food waste into a garburator?
No. Grease, fats, oils, coffee grounds, bones, fruit pits, large amounts of pasta or rice, and fibrous vegetables can damage the disposal or clog your plumbing system. Following the manufacturer’s recommendations helps extend the life of your unit.
Do you provide garburator repair near me?
Yes. We proudly provide garburator repair and installation services throughout Toronto, North York, East York, Leaside, Richmond Hill, Thornhill, Scarborough, Markham, Vaughan, Etobicoke, Brampton, Pickering, and Ajax.
