First, turn off the power to the disposal at the breaker. Never put your hand inside. You can try using a disposal wrench or an Allen key inserted into the hex hole at the bottom of the unit to manually turn the blades and dislodge the jam. If that doesn't work, it's time to call a professional. Our sink repair experts at Estevez Plumbing & Heating can safely clear the jam, inspect for damage, and get your kitchen running again quickly.

A professional plumbing inspection, especially one using a sewer camera, is crucial for Plainfield homes. It allows us to see inside your pipes without digging. We can identify early signs of trouble like cracks, root intrusion, or bellies in the line caused by shifting soil—common issues with older infrastructure. Catching these problems early with an inspection can prevent a complete sewer line failure, saving you from messy, disruptive, and expensive emergency repairs down the road.

A slow-draining sink is often the first sign of a developing clog or problem, especially in homes with older pipes. While it might just be a simple blockage under the sink, it could also indicate a partial clog further down the line or issues with your main drain. Our repair specialists recommend addressing slow drains promptly. We can perform a targeted repair to clear the immediate clog and check for underlying issues that could affect the rest of your Plainfield home's plumbing system.
