About the Service

Garbage Disposals, Done Right

Disposals fail in a few predictable ways: a jammed flywheel, a leak at the sink flange or seals, a tripped reset or a worn-out motor. Many jams and resets are quick to fix.

When replacement is the answer, we choose a unit that fits your sink and your kitchen’s habits, wire it safely or plug it in as the setup requires and connect it to the drain and dishwasher properly.

Music City Plumber brings garbage disposals to homes and businesses in Nashville and across 20 Middle Tennessee cities.

Questions About Garbage Disposals

Still have a question?

Call 615-357-7797

Why is my disposal humming but not spinning?

That usually means it is jammed. Turn the power off at the switch and call us, and do not put your hand inside.

What should not go in a disposal?

Grease, fibrous foods, bones, pasta and rice in large amounts, and non-food items can cause clogs and damage. We can share simple habits that help.

Can you connect the dishwasher drain?

Yes. We connect it to the disposal or the drain line in the proper way.
