A disposal that just hums without spinning, one that trips the reset button repeatedly, or water pooling under the sink from a leaking seal — disposal problems range from a simple jam to a unit that's reached the end of its life. Our Foley technicians diagnose and carry common replacement units on the truck.
If a disposal is old and the repair cost approaches replacement cost, we'll tell you honestly instead of patching it.
Disposal work involves both plumbing and electrical connections — our Foley technicians are trained and insured for both.

We isolate whether the leak is the disposal itself or a connection point before recommending a fix.

A humming motor with no spin is the classic sign of a mechanical jam, not usually a motor failure.

It depends on the issue — a jam clearing costs far less than a full replacement. We quote upfront before starting.
Repeated tripping deserves a real electrical check, not just resetting it and hoping it stops.
