Is Your Garbage Disposal Acting Up? Here’s What to Look For

Garbage disposals can become a vital part of your kitchen routine, but when they stop working properly, it can cause a major inconvenience. Keep an eye out for these signs that your disposal needs professional attention:

  • Lingering Odors: If unpleasant smells persist, it could mean food remnants are trapped inside your disposal. A thorough cleaning might be necessary to restore freshness and prevent bacteria buildup.

  • Power Issues: If your disposal doesn’t turn on, the problem could be a malfunctioning motor, a tripped reset button, or an electrical connection issue. We’ll diagnose the issue quickly to get your disposal up and running again.

  • Constant Clogging: Frequent jams in your disposal, especially with small food scraps, may indicate that it’s either clogged or the motor is struggling. We provide fast repairs to keep things running smoothly.

  • Slow Draining: When water drains slowly from your sink, it’s often a sign of a clogged garbage disposal or pipes. Our team can clear the obstruction and ensure proper flow for your kitchen.

  • Visible Leaks: If you see water pooling beneath your sink, a leaky disposal might be the culprit. Leaks can cause water damage, so it’s best to have your disposal inspected and repaired promptly.

My 29 year old daughter bought a 1989 house in Clearwater that needed several services.Her work schedule and newness of home ownership led me to help from 2 hours away. Finding a good plumber was more daunting than finding a roofer or HVAC company. We wanted 3 proposals and Formula Plumbing in Odessa was selected because of their competitive price, timeliness, and the help of Frank, a kind, calm service manager who walked us through what we needed to know. An additional challenge was not being able to access the house until after closing for them to check things out, than having a tight time schedule before she had to move out of her old place.

The work she had done was to move the washer/dryer and water heater, to install a new water heater, expansion tank, new refrigerant line for ice maker, install a garbage disposal, replace the home shut off valve and exterior hose bib, plus shut off valves for all. Formula gave her discounts to bundle all the work which helped so much. Wade was the plumber and completed the work in a day and a half.
All of these items plus replacing roof, HVAC, and electrical panel helped to lower her homeowner insurance quite a bit.
After moving in, she had some knocking. We spoke with Frank who tried to help diagnose the problem and Wade returned for a free diagnosis. It seems to be high water pressure which they thought was odd in that area of Clearwater. She received a price for a fix, however, other expenses with the home mean this will have to go on the back burner.

We are very grateful to have found Frank, Wade from Formula Plumbing and hope to not have to call them anytime soon as we hope the house is in much better shape now. We would recommend them.

Company is amazing. Saw great reviews online before calling for a quote. Wade came out quickly and gave a great price for the repair of the sewer line and work in the master bathroom. The work started immediately and the master bath was fully functional and completed before he left for the day. All the work looked great, was done quickly, and the dug up yard was cleaned up so well it looked like nothing was ever done.

I was VERY pleased to discover Formula One Plumbing after an internet search for plumbers in my area indicated they could tackle the specific jobs I needed which included annual maintenance on a tankless gas water heater & laundry room piping involving gas.
Their website offers a very convenient appointment portal where you can describe what work needs to be done. The next working day, I received a text message and follow up call to discuss my needs. Considering how busy we all are, I appreciated how efficient this was. Less friction = quicker home maintenance accomplishments!

The communication is excellent on all aspects..from thorough dispatch updates, quotes, ease of texting inquiries & follow up. These measures can be rare to find in the service industry and really shows the client they respect their time and energy.

Joe was very nice, competent and experienced. He offered great advice and also included my priorities in the troubleshooting process and offered different resolutions. He, along with Jacob, were tidy (wore booties) & very polite.
Pricing was fair & reasonable & more competitive if bundled with other plumbing needs.
I will use this family business again & refer them to friends.

Thank you for incorporating modern technology to help customers while keeping a personal touch to your business. 🙌🏼 You’re balancing it well.
