Tampa Plumbers can repair or replace the following brand of garbage disposal:

Garbage Disposals: The garbage disposer uses an spinning impeller blade to force debris into the blades along the side. As it spins, it grinds the debris through the blades into particles that can easily be flushed through the drain. The disposer relies on water flow to turn the food bits into a slurry that can be easy flushed through the drain.The garbage disposer is not good at grinding fibrous foods like banana peels, celery, artichokes and corn husks. Fibrous foods do not grind into particles but instead creates strings, which tend to jam the disposer and clog the drain.

Makes humming sounds: It may be jammed, or in a worse case situation, the engine has burned out. You should try to un jam first - many garbage disposers come with an Allen wrench designed to fit into a hole at the bottom of your disposer. Use a flashlight to locate the hole, insert the Allen wrench and turn the disposal back and forth to loosen the jam. Turn the power on at the breaker, run cold water and try to turn the disposal on again.

When turned on, nothing happens: When your disposal stops turning, it is often because it senses an overload of power and automatically shuts off. As a precaution, wait a few moments to let the disposal cool down. Most disposers have a reset button on the underside of them. After the unit is cool, press the reset button, run cold water and try turning it on again. If this does not solve the problem, you may need to inspect the cord or wiring. Do not be ashamed to call Tampa Bay Plumbers to repair the damaged disposal.

I put something in there, and its jammed: There are a number of simple steps that you can start with. After you check the power is off at the breaker ,use a flashlight to locate and identify the obstruction and, if possible, use metal tongs to lift out the obstruction. If this does not work then you may try using a special turning tool (when available)a broom handle, or a wooden spoon. Turn the power on at the breaker, run cold water and try to turn the disposal on again.

Backed up, draining slowly: Food matter will occasionally accumulate in the drain and cause a clog. If an ordinary drain cleaner does not remedy the clog, you'll have to get your hands dirty. However, if that task does not appeal to, why not contact Tampa Bay Plumbers and we can repair it for you.

Foul smells: Like all kitchen appliances , you will need to use frequently and maintain. If a garbage disposal is not used frequently, food can sit a in the disposal and then will start to decompose, causing an odor. Run the disposal at least one time per week and flush with water. If the smell persists, you may have a deeper seated problem - please call Tampa Bay Plumbers and we can advise you if you need our services.
