Houston Garbage Disposal Tips
To help minimize the need for garbage disposal repair, there are a few things to keep in mind:
- Cold water – Use only cold water when grinding food as hot water can melt fat which clogs in other areas of your draining when it cools.
- Overfilling – Garbage disposals are the unsung heroes of kitchens, yet they are often overloaded which can lead to clogging and burned out motors.
- Running water – Always run water before and after using your garbage disposal. As with any sort of pump designed for use with water, they wear when running dry.
- Drain cleaners – Never use bleach or drain cleaners in your unit.
- Hard items – Any hard food scraps or waste should be avoided such as bones, pits, and coffee grounds as well as any items made of rubber, metal, or glass.
While many people do attempt to perform garbage disposal repair themselves; it is highly recommended to seek the assistance from professionals like Wedgeworth Plumbing due to the risks from handling sharp blades and also working with electricity in an environment that includes water.

Awesome Service
Joycelynrasberry - Houston, TX
I had an awful smell in my downstairs bathroom. I called one company and gave me an estimate to smoke test and remove toilet putting a new wax seal $971. Thank goodness that I read positive reviews for Wedgeworth Plumbing. They sent a gentleman named Damondrick Bennett today. He was professional and polite. After inspecting the toilet, he ran hot water and poured bleach in my lavatory. Repeated that several times and no more awful smell. A rubber accordion pipe was used instead of a straight pipe. It was retaining scum built up. No more smell and charged me $49. So happy with this company. They saved me a lot of money.
Great Service

Wedgeworth Plumbing was referred to my next door neighbor and myself by Moore Plumbing Supply. We have both been grateful for that referral! They have done an entire house repipe for me and many smaller plumbing repairs! They are always responsive when I call, answer my questions and go above and beyond to make certain everything is satisfactory! Rex is an extremely skilled plumber, has been so very good about explaining things in lay terms and very courteous about it. I will be doing more repairs with them soon as now I would t trust anyone else to tackle my plumbing issues!

Chris121 - Houston, TX
Very pleased with the plumbing job today. This is our second time using Wedgeworth Plumbing, and they don’t disappoint. We had other plumbers quote us 4 - 5x’s over what Wedgeworth quoted us, so we agreed to have them fix it ASAP today. Thanks for being an honest and respectful plumbing company! 👍

Outstanding!
PatCavanagh - Houston, TX
Of course, my plumbing problem was an emergency---water leaking from my bathroom down to the garage below. With a smile in her voice, Erica calmly let me know I would be the second call of the day. When DJ and Damondrick arrived, they politely assessed the problem, gave me their estimate, and assured me they could complete the repair. These two young men were POLITE, EFFICIENT, FRIENDLY, and PROFESSIONAL. On top of that, once they completed the big repair, I asked them to look at two outdoor faucets. One was not broken, but the second one needed something new. They offered to fix it at that very moment, and once they were finished, they would not add the charge to my bill. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! I am so happy that I found Wedgeworth Plumbing. They are my new favorite plumbing company! Their boss is a lucky guy!

Quick diagnosis, problem solved!
Wade S. - Houston, TX
Demondrick was professional, friendly and very helpful - not only quickly resolving the main problem for the service call but also providing helpful maintenance advice to save money on other key areas of concern in the house. I’d be happy to have him back, calling on the service friendly team at the office as well!
