Did you ever consider just trashing the garbage disposal? LOL!
I got rid of mine after being told by a plumber that most of his clogged pipe calls came from disposals. They are not great for the whole pipe system, and if you compost (coffee grounds are great for that), so much stuff doesn't even make it into the pipes(or land fills). Plus you save on water used to wash it all down and run it for 30 seconds.

I am cheap!

Good job getting this corrected so everything -- and every one -- is safe!

I just love the Hannah - and - the - plumber story!

Water can do a LOT of damage and with that old garbage disposal, I would have just tore that out and got rid of that if it caused all those problems and taken that back to the store and got my money back...

Great that you finally got it all fixed up at any costs.

Hannah sounds like she is a flirt and was flirting with the plumber..

Yes, I agree with you there. Casey was my garbage disposal until she went to the Rainbow Bridge.
