Garbage Disposal Clog Inquiries

Frequently Asked Questions


You have questions, The Rescue Team has answers!

If your garbage disposal is clogged, use a shop vac to try to suck out anything stuck in the disposal itself. If it still continues to be clogged after sucking it out try using a plunger. If that doesn’t work consider calling us to use a professional drain cleaning machine.

Use a wet/dry shop vacuum to remove the standing water. Position the shop vac firmly inside the drain to attempt to suck out the clog.  If the shop vac does not resolve the clog try to use a plunger.

If these methods do not work call Rescue Plumbing! If the plunger did not work your clog is far down the line and you need a professional long drain cleaning snack to unclog that drain.

To free up a jammed garbage disposal, take a look at Rescue Plumbing’s youtube video! Here we show you how to use a jam buster tool, and from there you can try using an Allen key to manually rotate the disposal’s impellers from underneath. This may help dislodge any stuck objects causing the jam.

Remember to turn off the power to the disposal before attempting any manual fixes and exercise caution throughout the process. If the disposal remains jammed, contact us for professional assistance!
