Garbage Disposal Installation & Repair
At Five Star Home Services, we specialize in providing top-notch garbage disposal installation and repair services in Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, and surrounding areas. Our goal is to make your kitchen clean-up a breeze by offering the best garbage disposals that effortlessly dispose of food scraps and particles left over on countertops.

We understand the importance of a properly functioning disposal, as many homeowners heavily rely on it. Improper installation or use can lead to damage, such as motor malfunctions, jams, and clogs that can result in unwanted noise and broken components. Avoid flushing fats, grease, oils, and certain types of trash down the disposal to prevent these issues. Additionally, leaving food lingering in the grind chamber can lead to odors and clogs. Our skilled technicians ensure secure mounting connections and safeguard your kitchen sink hardware by addressing loose garbage disposals that produce excess vibration. Trust us to handle all your garbage disposal needs with expertise and professionalism.

WATER LEAKS
Water heaters, mains, pipes, sewers, or any other plumbing-related problems in your home can go on leaking for weeks or even months. Before you finally realize it, the damage is severe. Plumbing leaks can be visible or hidden inside your home, indicating more profound problems. When you notice a leak, you should call a plumber right away.
NO HOT WATER
Losing hot water often results from an issue with the water heater. You should check your circuit breaker box to ensure the unit has power if you have an electric water heater. If you have a gas water heater, make sure the pilot light is lit and hasn’t been blown out, or the gas has been shut off. Call us if you hear rattling noises or if the water heater receives a power source.
GAS CONCERNS
The most dangerous plumbing emergency that can arise is a gas leak. If you smell gas, you must evacuate your home immediately and call your local gas company or fire department. After notifying your utility company or gas provider, we have a plumber rush over to assess the situation. A licensed and certified professional should always handle anything related to gas.
MAJOR FLOODING
Whether the flooding is caused by your water heater, your sewer backing up, or a clogged toilet, all of these issues can result in an immediate water emergency requiring prompt service. Check out our sump pump services.

Clogged Garbage Disposal Troubleshooting
Unclogging a garbage disposal can be tricky — especially if you don’t know where to begin. Start by checking to see if the disposal is clogged by turning it on and listening for any grinding noises. If there isn’t any noise, the disposal needs to be reset. To reset it, unplug it from its power source and press the reset button at the bottom. After pressing the reset button, you’ll reconnect the disposal to its power source and turn it on. If you still hear no noise after this, it’s probably time to check for any objects that might be clogging it. To check for clogs, use a flashlight and carefully inspect the inside. If you notice any objects causing the clog, use rubber gloves and long-handled tongs to remove them. Once all the debris has been removed, turn on the disposal again to find grinding noises. If no noises are present, your garbage disposal should be working correctly.
