How We Handle Garbage Disposal Replacement
A jam can often be cleared: power off, the reset button on the bottom, and the hex key socket in the center to free the plate. If it hums but won't turn after that, or it keeps tripping, the motor is going.
A leak from the bottom of the unit is the housing itself, and that isn't repairable. A leak from where it meets the sink or the drain pipe is a seal or a connection, and sometimes that's a repair.
A new disposal is also a chance to look at the kitchen drain line behind it. A disposal can't fix a drain that's slow because the line is coated with grease.

Garbage Disposal Replacement Questions
Can a garbage disposal be repaired?
A jam usually can be cleared, and a loose connection can be resealed. A unit that leaks from its own housing or has a burned-out motor needs replacing.
Why does my sink drain slowly with a new disposal?
Because the clog is usually in the kitchen drain line, not the disposal. Grease builds up in the line over years. Clearing or jetting the line fixes that.
