If your garbage disposal hums but won’t grind, turn it off and try a safe jam‑clear and reset. Our Marion plumbers handle installation, maintenance, and repairs for garbage disposals.

Quick checks:

• Turn switch off, unplug or flip the breaker.
• Press the red reset button on the bottom.
• Insert a 1/4-inch hex key in the bottom socket; turn both directions to free the impeller.
• Remove debris with tongs or pliers. Never reach in.
• Check the sink GFCI and the breaker. If it still hums, service is needed in Marion or Gas City.
