When your garbage disposal breaks down, We The Plumbers offers same-day repair and replacement service — with a free estimate before any work begins. Daily cooking puts constant strain on your plumbing system, and getting your kitchen back to normal quickly is what matters.
Here’s how to protect your disposal, what to avoid putting down the drain, and when to call our team for professional help.
Grease buildup, food waste, and everyday wear can all lead to clogs and jams. To keep your disposal running smoothly:
Run cold water before, during, and after each use to help food particles flush cleanly through your pipes.
Avoid pouring fats or oils down the drain, as they solidify inside pipes and lead to blockages.
Feed waste slowly rather than dumping large amounts at once, which helps prevent overloading the motor.
Clean regularly by grinding ice cubes and citrus peels to remove buildup and neutralize odors.
If you notice slow draining, humming, or your unit refusing to turn on, don’t ignore the signs—these issues can worsen quickly. Our We The Plumbers technicians provide same-day garbage disposal repair in Conroe and throughout Montgomery County, and can often restore your unit in a single visit.

Preventing clogs is easier than dealing with them later. A few mindful habits can extend the life of your disposal and your entire kitchen drain line:
Keep these items out: fibrous vegetables (celery, corn husks, asparagus), starchy foods (pasta, rice, potatoes), coffee grounds, eggshells, grease, oils, fruit pits, and bones.
Use cold water only. It keeps grease solid so it can pass through the pipes instead of coating them.
Clean monthly with ice cubes and vinegar or citrus peels to reduce buildup and eliminate odors.
Never use chemical drain cleaners. They can corrode the disposal and pipes. Choose enzyme-based cleaners or schedule a professional cleaning instead.
If you experience a clog, avoid forcing the blades or reaching inside the unit. Turn off the power and call We The Plumbers—we use safe, non-damaging methods like drain snaking or hydro-jetting to clear blockages without harming your pipes.
