Pro Tips to Extend the Life of Your Garburator
Run cold water during and after use
Avoid putting grease, bones, or fibrous food (like celery) down the unit
Use citrus peels occasionally to help reduce odors

Reset your unit using the red button underneath if it stops working
Routine maintenance and mindful usage can add years to your garburator’s life.

Garburator Installation & Repair FAQs
Can I install a garburator myself?
While DIY is possible, we recommend a licensed plumber. Improper installation can cause leaks, electrical issues, or drain backups — costing more to fix later.
What size garbage disposal do I need?
It depends on your kitchen usage. We’ll help you choose the right horsepower and features for your needs, whether it’s a light-use condo or a busy household.
My garburator is jammed. Should I replace it?
Not necessarily. Many jams can be cleared with proper tools. We’ll inspect it and repair it if possible — saving you the cost of a new unit.
How long does a garburator last?
Most units last 8–15 years with proper care. Signs of failure include persistent clogs, frequent resets, or leaks — we’ll let you know if it’s worth repairing or replacing.
How much does it cost to install or repair a garburator?
Installation or repair costs vary depending on the unit and setup. We provide a clear, flat-rate quote before starting any work — with no hidden fees.
