Plainfield Plumber for Disposal Repair
Leto Plumbing & Heating, Inc. repairs and installs garbage disposals every day for homeowners in Plainfield, New Lenox and across Will County, whether yours has gone quiet, hums without grinding, or leaks under the sink. Call (815) 609-3150 for a free estimate before any work begins.
When an installation needs a permit from the Village of Plainfield Building Department, we plan for it from the start. If sediment is affecting other fixtures, ask about water heater maintenance while we're there.
Warning Signs
Signs Your Plainfield Disposal Needs Attention
Jammed or Seized
The motor hums but the plate won't move. Usually a lodged object or worn flywheel, fixable without a new unit.
Won't Power On
If the reset button doesn't help, it may be electrical, a failed motor or a tripped circuit.
Leaking Under the Sink
Leaks at the flange, dishwasher connection or drain elbow each need a different fix.
Persistent Bad Odor
Trapped food breeds bacteria. If the smell returns within days of cleaning, the unit needs service.
Unusual Grinding Noise
Rattling means a foreign object; dull, labored grinding means worn impellers or blades.
Drains into the Dishwasher
The drain connection between the two has failed. That's a food-safety problem.
- Not turning on
- Constantly humming
- Smelly
- Noisy
How Long Does a Garbage Disposal Last?
Maintenance
Why Regular Maintenance Matters
Repair or Replace: Making the Right Call
Assess the Unit's Age and Condition
Under eight years old with one problem: usually repair. Past ten years or repeated failures: replace.
Compare Repair Cost to Replacement Value
If a repair nears half the cost of a new unit, we'll tell you. A new unit also carries a manufacturer warranty.
Size the Replacement Correctly
An undersized disposal jams and wears out faster. We match motor size to how your kitchen is used.

Chris gave us EXCELLENT service! Focused on the plumbing issue and walked us thru what all he did! Polite and answered all of our questions!
Kathy WendellWritten on behalf of my mom Annie: I am very satisfied with Chris Leto's service. He addressed the issue quickly and professionally. Charged a fair price.
Alvin KIn February of 2026 I used Leto Plumbing & Heating on two occasions. First for an emergency after hours weekend call when my sump pump line was frozen during our recent sub-zero weather. The second was a routine maintenance call to flush my hot water heaters. Both times the individuals that came out were pros who were friendly, knowledgeable and got the job done right the first time. Would highly recommend!

Simon SongLeto Plumbing has been servicing the plumbing and HVAC in our homes for many years. Rick and Chris, father and son, are amazing in every way. They are reliable, neat, courteous, and knowledgeable in all areas of plumbing and HVAC. They go out of their way to rush out to our home for needed repairs and new work. They may not be “cheap”, but you can rest easy that their work is top quality and will give you peace of mind. TFK St. Charles
Ted KawczynskiVery happy with the service received by Leto plumbing. Starting with phone call made, very nice and was able to get us scheduled next day. Chris, technician, was earlier than originally expected (which was great), he explained everything, was very courteous and timely. Extremely happy with service provided and will be calling Leto for any future needs.
