Why Disposals Wear Out Faster in NOLA Kitchens

New Orleans’ high humidity contributes to corrosion on the metal components inside a disposal, particularly around the mounting assembly and drain connection, shortening the lifespan of units in homes without great kitchen ventilation. Older homes with original under-sink plumbing sometimes have drain lines and electrical outlets that aren’t well suited to a modern disposal’s demands, which is why we check the full connection, not just the unit, whenever we install or repair one.

How It Works

This almost always means the flywheel is jammed, often by a piece of food debris or a small object. It’s a quick fix in most cases and doesn’t necessarily mean the unit needs to be replaced.

Most household garbage disposals last 8-12 years with normal use. If your unit is within that range and having repeated problems, replacement is often more cost-effective than continued repairs.

It’s possible, but disposals involve both electrical and plumbing connections, and an improperly mounted or wired unit can leak, trip breakers, or fail early. Professional installation ensures it’s done correctly the first time.

Yes. We can add a garbage disposal to a kitchen that’s never had one, including any necessary electrical and drain line adjustments to accommodate the new unit.
