Garbage Disposal and Drain Cleaning in Mar Vista, CA

Service: Garbage Disposal | Location: Mar Vista, CA | Result: Completed same day

The Problem

A Mar Vista homeowner called 24/7 Rooter Service after their kitchen sink stopped draining and the garbage disposal was making a burning smell when switched on. The kitchen was completely unusable.

What We Found

The garbage disposal motor had burned out from being run while jammed — the unit was 11 years old and beyond repair. The kitchen drain was also slow due to grease buildup in the P-trap and drain line, which had been contributing to disposal jams over time.

What We Did

We removed the failed disposal and installed a new InSinkErator unit. We also ran a hand snake through the kitchen drain to clear the grease buildup in the P-trap and branch line and flushed with hot water. We tested the new disposal through a full cycle and confirmed clean drain flow.

Result

Full kitchen function restored in one visit. New disposal installed and drain cleared. Homeowner advised on proper disposal maintenance to extend unit life.
