The modern garbage disposal can be a terrific convenience. When it goes wrong though, the situation can be grim. When you are expecting to get the dishes done quickly and get on with living, you don’t want to have to face a backup of smelly water and a disposal making a futile noise and accomplishing nothing. To avoid this unfortunate situation, you should make sure you have a good garbage disposal, properly installed, and then maintain it well. Good maintenance includes not putting terribly fibrous things through the unit. Celery stalks, artichoke leaves, corn husks, and onion peels, can make a wad of fiber which may cause a problem. It is not a good plan to burden the disposal with a lot of grease either. Combined with fiber, that can form a plug that will lead to a plumbing problem. In the case of such a disposal problem, you will be glad to find a great plumbing contractor close by. They can fix your garbage disposal or put a brand new one under your sink, and get you ready to face the next sink-full of dirty dishes with a properly functioning garbage disposal.
