About this service
Repair or Replace the Disposal?
A disposal that hums but won’t spin is usually jammed. One that does nothing may only need its reset button pressed or its breaker checked. Those are quick fixes.
A leak from the body of the unit, a burned-out motor, or a disposal that keeps jamming usually means replacement. A new unit is installed and connected to the drain and dishwasher line.
- ✓ Jams and hums
- ✓ Leaks under the sink

Jams, humming without spinning, leaks underneath, and units that won’t turn on.
Switch off the power to it and never put your hand inside. It’s usually jammed. A plumber can free it, or replace it if the motor has failed.
When it leaks from the body, the motor has burned out, or it keeps jamming after repairs.
