Common Problems

Kitchen Plumbing Problems We Fix

Kitchen sink won't drain

Grease, food and soap buildup clogs kitchen drain lines over time. We snake or jet the line clear. For a drain that keeps coming back, see our drain cleaning page.

Garbage disposal stopped working

Won't turn on, humming but not spinning, or leaking at the bottom. Most disposal problems are a tripped reset, a jammed impeller or a failed unit.

Leak under the kitchen sink

Usually the P-trap connection, the drain basket gasket or the supply line connections. We find the source and fix it so it doesn't rot out the cabinet floor.

Dishwasher not draining

Can be a clogged dishwasher drain hose, a problem with the air gap, or a blockage where the dishwasher drains into the disposal or sink drain.

Low water pressure at the kitchen faucet

A clogged aerator is the most common cause. If cleaning the aerator doesn't help, there may be a larger supply pressure issue. See our leak detection page if you suspect a supply line problem.

Kitchen faucet dripping or leaking

Worn cartridges, O-rings or valve seats. Most kitchen faucet leaks are repairable. See our full faucet repair page for all types.

Garbage disposal humming but not spinning

The impeller is jammed, usually by a small object or hardened grease. We unjam it or replace the unit if the motor has burned out.

Both sides of double sink drain slow

Both basins share the same drain before it hits the P-trap and main drain line. A clog past the junction blocks both sides equally.

Services

Kitchen Plumbing Services

Garbage disposal repair and replacement

We repair jammed or leaking disposals and replace failed units. We bring common sizes on the truck so replacement can usually happen same day.

Kitchen sink installation

Replacing a drop-in or undermount sink — we handle the drain basket, P-trap connections, supply lines and supply valves, not just dropping the sink in.

Dishwasher hookup

New dishwasher installation — drain hose connection, air gap, supply line and electrical connection coordination. Properly draining into the disposal or drain connection prevents backflow issues.

Supply line replacement

Braided stainless supply lines under the sink last longer than plastic ones and don't bulge or crack under pressure. We replace them as part of any under-sink repair.

P-trap and drain line repair

P-traps leak from corrosion, loose slip joints or improper installation. We replace them with correctly sized parts that fit the drain configuration.

Kitchen remodel rough-in

Moving the sink, adding an island sink or plumbing for a pot filler — we rough in new drain and supply locations as part of kitchen remodel projects.

Garbage Disposal

Garbage Disposal: Repair or Replace?

ProblemRecommendation
Won't turn on, reset button worksCheck the circuit breaker and reset — may just need resetting
Humming but not spinningJammed impeller — often fixable with the hex wrench at the bottom
Leaking from the bottomInternal seal has failed — replacement is usually more cost-effective
Leaking from the sink flange (top)Plumber's putty under the flange has failed — repair, not replacement
Unit is 10+ years old and repeatedly failingReplace — disposals last 8–15 years, parts get hard to source
New disposal grinding poorly despite no jamMotor may be failing — replacement usually makes sense over repair

Local Knowledge

Kitchen Plumbing in Tigard: What to Know

Grease buildup in older Tigard kitchens

Kitchen drain lines in homes 20+ years old often have significant grease buildup. Snaking opens them, but jetting is the more thorough fix. See our hydro jetting service if your kitchen drain clogs repeatedly.

Older supply valves under the sink

Gate valves that were standard in older Tigard homes can corrode and fail to close fully when you need to shut off water for a repair. If the valves under your kitchen sink are hard to turn or won't close, we replace them with quarter-turn ball valves while we're there.

Kitchen remodels need permits in Oregon

Moving a drain or supply line in a kitchen remodel requires a plumbing permit in Oregon. Adding a new fixture location does too. We pull the permit as part of any rough-in work so your remodel passes inspection.

Common Questions

Kitchen Plumbing Questions

Usually grease and food buildup in the P-trap or the drain line behind it. Snaking usually clears it. If it comes back every few months, the line may need hydro jetting to clear the buildup from the pipe walls.
The impeller is jammed, usually by a small object like a piece of bone or a utensil. Many disposals have a hex socket on the bottom — a 1/4" hex wrench can manually rotate it to free the jam. If that doesn't work, call us.
Most under-sink leaks are from the P-trap connection, the drain basket seal, or the supply line fittings. We find the source and fix it in one visit.
Sometimes. The dishwasher drain hose connects to the disposal or sink drain. If the disposal is clogged or the knockout plug wasn't removed on a new disposal, the dishwasher can't drain. We diagnose whether it's the machine or the plumbing.
Most disposals last 8–15 years. If yours is older and having repeated problems, replacement is usually more cost-effective than repair.
You can, but the supply valves under the sink need to shut off fully and the connections need to seal properly. A slow leak under the cabinet over months can rot the cabinet floor without being obvious. We make sure it's right.
A partially closed hot supply valve, a clogged aerator or a failing cartridge are the most common causes. If the pressure is low at multiple hot fixtures, there may be a supply line issue elsewhere in the house.
Yes. We handle rough-in for new sink locations, island sinks, pot fillers, dishwasher hookups and any drain or supply line work that a kitchen remodel requires.
Small food scraps with plenty of cold water running. Avoid bones, fibrous vegetables (celery, artichokes), grease, pasta, rice and coffee grounds — these cause jams or buildup in the drain line.
Disposal replacement typically runs $200–$500 installed, depending on the unit. We carry common sizes on the truck so replacement can usually happen same day.
