Frequently Asked Questions

Here at Done, we pride ourselves on being the go-to company for your Aurora garbage disposal needs. From repair to installation and replacement, our expert plumbers have you covered. Watch this video where we will show you how to unjam and reset your kitchen garbage disposal.

 

If your garbage disposal isn’t working, you may be able to fix it yourself and save some money. But before we talk about it, let me remind you that you should never place your hand or any other object into the opening up the disposal.

If the disposal suddenly stops working, and has no sign of life, wait a few minutes and let it cool down.
Most units have a reset button; usually red, on the underside. Press and release that button. Run cold water, and try turning the disposal on again. Also, check to make sure the disposal is plugged in.

What if your disposal hums but won’t turn?

To be safe: First, turn off the power at the breaker. Now, see if your disposal has a hole on the bottom designed to accept an Allen wrench. Most of them do. Insert the proper size wrench, and try turning both left and right to loosen whatever is causing the jam. Make sure the wrench is removed from the slot. Turn the power back on. run cold water, and see if the disposal works.

If not, Done is just a phone call away 24 hours a day!

Garbage Disposal Installation & Repair – Fast, Reliable, Done!

When your garbage disposal stops working, it doesn’t take long for daily routines to feel frustrating. Whether you’re dealing with a jammed unit, a strange noise, or an entirely dead disposal, Done! Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric is here to help with quick, dependable solutions.

We provide professional garbage disposal installation and repair services for homeowners throughout Aurora, Denver, and the surrounding metro area. Our licensed plumbers are experienced in diagnosing, repairing, and replacing disposals of all types—so you don’t have to put up with clogs, odors, or messy kitchen backups.

Why Garbage Disposals Matter More Than You Think

Garbage disposals are one of the most convenient tools in a modern kitchen. They help eliminate food waste, reduce odors, and prevent sink clogs by grinding food scraps into small particles that can safely move through your plumbing system.

But when a disposal fails—or is installed incorrectly—it can lead to bigger problems:

  • Sink backups and slow drainage
  • Foul odors or mildew under the sink
  • Leaks at the base or pipe connections
  • Electrical hazards or overheating motors

That’s why professional garbage disposal installation and regular maintenance are essential to keeping your kitchen clean, safe, and functional.

Common Garbage Disposal Issues We Fix

Our team handles all types of disposal-related problems, including:

  • Units that hum but won’t spin (jammed flywheels)
  • Leaks from the bottom or connections
  • Loud grinding or rattling noises
  • Units that won’t turn on or randomly shut off
  • Persistent clogs in the disposal or kitchen drain

We’ll troubleshoot your disposal, explain what’s wrong, and recommend whether a repair or replacement makes the most sense.

When to Repair vs. Replace

Not every broken disposal needs to be replaced—but if your unit is older than 8–10 years, making strange noises, or constantly needing repairs, it may be more cost-effective to install a new one.

If a fix is all you need, our garbage disposal repair service includes:

  • Clearing jams safely and efficiently
  • Replacing damaged or dull grinding components
  • Fixing leaks at connection points
  • Resetting electrical overload switches
  • Restoring full operation without the mess

If a new unit is the better choice, we can help with:

  • Choosing the right size and power for your home
  • Installing the disposal to fit your sink, plumbing, and power setup
  • Ensuring your new disposal is code-compliant and under warranty
  • Testing everything to make sure it works perfectly

Tips to Keep Your Garbage Disposal Running Longer

After your repair or installation, our techs will walk you through the best ways to care for your disposal. A few quick tips:

  • Run cold water before, during, and after use
  • Avoid putting fibrous foods like celery or corn husks down the drain
  • Never pour grease, fat, or oil into the disposal
  • Clean the unit occasionally with ice and baking soda to reduce odors

We also recommend pairing a garbage disposal with kitchen drain cleaning every year or so—especially in busy households or homes with older plumbing.
