What should I do if my garbage disposal is leaking from the bottom?

If water is leaking from the bottom of your garbage disposal, stop using it and cut power at the switch. Bottom leaks often mean an internal failure, and replacement is commonly the fix, but our plumber can confirm with a quick diagnostic and give an upfront estimate. We handle diagnosis, repair or replacement, testing, and cleanup.

Quick checks:

• Turn off the switch and avoid running water.
• Place a bowl or towel under the unit.
• Don’t reach inside; wait for a technician.
