Had them out for a leak under the sink and asked about our pressure while they were here. Turned out it was way high. New regulator, and the constant small drips around the house stopped.

Garbage Disposal Repair & Installation in Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Half the Cedar Rapids disposal calls we take turn out to be a drain problem rather than a disposal problem - the unit is working fine and the line beneath it is packed. We check the line before selling anyone a new unit, which saves a fair number of Cedar Rapids households the cost of one.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Grease is the leading cause of kitchen line calls
Most of the kitchen drains we cable in Cedar Rapids are lined with cooled grease rather than blocked by any single object. It goes down warm and sets on the pipe wall a few feet along. Once that layer is thick enough, one bowl of rice finishes the job.

Water softener install. They tested our water first rather than just selling a unit, and sized it accordingly. Fixtures have stayed clean since.

Main water line between the meter and the house had a leak. They located it, replaced the run, and got the yard back to reasonable. No complaints at all.

Garbage Disposal Repair in Cedar Rapids: common questions
My disposal just hums - is it broken?
Usually not. Something is jammed against the impellers. Cut the power at the switch and the breaker, then use the hex key in the bottom of the unit to turn it by hand. If it frees up, hit the red reset button. If not, call (833) 435-9778.
How long does a garbage disposal last?
Eight to twelve years with normal use. Once the housing leaks it is done. If it is under eight years and simply jammed or tripped, repair is nearly always the better call.
Can you install a disposal where there is not one?
Yes, provided there is a switched outlet under the sink or we can arrange one. We handle the drain reconfiguration and the dishwasher connection as part of the install.
What should never go in a disposal?
Grease, coffee grounds, eggshells, fibrous vegetable skins and pasta or rice. Those are what we find in most of the Cedar Rapids kitchen lines we end up cabling.
Can you tell me what is wrong over the phone?
Often we can narrow it down, and sometimes we can tell you it is something you can fix yourself in five minutes. We would rather do that than send a truck you did not need.
