Gene's Plumbing handles garbage disposal repair across Elwood and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Leaking disposals in Elwood leak from one of three places, and only one of them means the unit is finished. The other two are gaskets and connections.
Every house handles garbage disposal repair a little differently depending on its age, and Elwood has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Elwood truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The garbage disposal repair job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
The order we work in, and why.
A plumber asks the questions on the phone that narrow it down, so the right parts and the right machine are already on the truck when it arrives.
A gauge goes on the system, a camera goes down the line, or the meter gets checked with everything off — whichever actually answers the question. Nobody quotes a repair on a guess.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
Before the truck goes you see it working — the drain running, the pressure holding, the pit cycling — not just a thumbs up from the driveway.

What homeowners said after this job.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Sewage backed up into the basement shower on a Friday night. They were out that night, cleared it, and came back Monday with the camera at no extra charge to make sure it was really clear."
"Kitchen drain had been slow for a year. Ran the cable, then put a camera down and showed me the grease ring on his screen. Explained what to stop pouring down it. Has not backed up since."
