Home » ABOUT GARBAGE DISPOSAL

The main goal of the United Plumbing from San Jose and Bay Area is to protect your home from problems associated with malfunctioning plumbing equipment: to eliminate leaks, blockages in drain pipes, fix the kitchen sink, or install a new one. One of our activities is the repair of food waste disposers. We offer high-quality and prompt service with a visit to the facility at any time convenient for you.

Our team consists of qualified plumbers who can find malfunction sources in a couple of minutes and take measures to eliminate them. If your disposer suddenly went out of order and stopped performing its functions, contact our consultants, describe the essence of the problem, and order a home call from a team of specialists marked “urgent”. Our emergency assistance is available 24/7.

Food waste disposer: installation and repair

The garbage disposer is one of the most important parts of your kitchen equipment. What would you do without being able to dispose of food leftovers? One thing is exact: your living conditions would become much less comfortable.

A large amount of food waste gets into the sink drain every day, which significantly increases the risk of blockages. A sign that your equipment is not performing as expected is poor water drainage due to grease accumulation, food bits, and other waste. Faced with such an everyday problem, do not hesitate – seek help from professionals.

If you want to try to carry out the repair work yourself, follow the instructions:

Click on the button located at the bottom of the kitchen disposer
In case the first step did not work, visually assess the condition of the sink drain using a flashlight.
If during visual inspection you found objects that block a drain, remove them after turning off the power.
Turn the stuck hex wrench back and forth

Keep in mind: repairs on your own can have adverse and even dangerous consequences, up to injury, if safety measures are not followed when working with the equipment. The best option is to call a plumber.

We provide services to repair pipes and gutters, replacement, and disposers’ installation from scratch. If your equipment is worn out and cannot be repaired, we will select for you a new, more functional and durable one, install and test for efficiency, give recommendations for correct use and prevention of accidents.

  We recently hired United Plumbing to replace our old HVAC system. From start to finish, the experience was exceptional. Their technician, Oleg, thoroughly inspected our attic and crawl space to accurately assess our needs. The estimator, Fariza, provided a clear and competitive quote based on Steve's findings.

The installation team, Oleg and Valerii, were true professionals. They were courteous, efficient, and meticulous in their work. The quality of their installation was outstanding.

We were highly impressed with United Plumbing’s professionalism, responsiveness, and fair pricing. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy HVAC company.

  Victor showed up quicker than any other technician from any company could during a AC malfunction during a heat wave. He was thorough and fixed the main and secondary issues.  Great job.

  Semenov was knowledgeable and straightforward with descaling my tankless water heater. Didn’t try to upcharge me. $130 cost for descaling, same as buying the tools. Good value.

  Super fast to respond to my request and very easy to communicate with. Alex was prompt, professional and friendly and didn’t make me feel bad that I had a very simple job I probably could have figured out myself.

Great service. I’ll be back.

  This was the 3rd company I looked into for my plumbing issues. I was able to get a same day appointment and the technician Almaz arrived at the start of the 2-hour window they quoted. I even got a text that he was on his way. I had two pipe leaks, one under the bathroom sink and one in the crawl space. Almaz was careful and thorough in diagnosing the latter and worked his way down the tight crawl area. We ended up cutting out dry wall in my garage to get an actual quote. Their prices seem very fair and so far I’m very happy I went with them. Will update once the fix is complete.

  Had some plumbing issues with backed up pipes. I contacted United Plumbing and was able to get a service update within 30 minutes on a Sunday which was amazing. Alex came out and took care of the issue at hand swiftly and efficiently.
