What should I do if my garbage disposal is leaking from the bottom?

A leak from the bottom usually means the disposal’s internal seal or housing has failed. Shut off power at the switch or breaker, stop the water, place a pan under the unit, and avoid running it. Summers provides garbage disposal installation, maintenance, and repairs, with emergency and same-day service. Our licensed, insured plumbers can inspect and advise repair vs. replacement and include the disposal in a maintenance plan. We serve Kokomo and nearby cities like Frankfort.
