You might not use your garbage disposal daily, but a garbage disposal repair can still have an impact on your day.
Here are the top three ways to make sure that your garbage disposal repair is as seamless and unobtrusive as possible:
- Clean your kitchen. You don’t need to do anything too extensive, of course. But our professionals will need access to your garbage disposal, which may mean you might want to clean some things. The cabinet under the sink is the biggest culprit—moving anything that impedes access to the garbage disposal will be a great help in making this repair go smoothly. If there are any dishes in the garbage disposal side of the sink, those would also be best moved out, so that your repairman can test the disposal after the repair.
- Prepare meals or have plans to eat out. This may not be an issue, depending on what time you’ve booked your repair. That being said, if you think you might want to eat something during your garbage disposal repair, the day before is a great time to stock up on snacks or plan out a trip to a restaurant you’ve been wanting to try.
- Have a place to put pets and children. The repair will go far more quickly if your repairman only has to focus on your garbage disposal. Blocking the kitchen off from the areas where your dog is roaming or sending your child to play in their room or at a friend’s house will help your repair go more smoothly.
By following these three tips, you can rest assured you’ve done what you can to ensure your garbage disposal repair is done as quickly and efficiently as possible.
