My question is, as you begin to demonstrate the hex key solution in the video, if my garbage disposal appears to be functioning okay, that is to say it's rotating, making its usual noise, and seems like it is trying to pull the water through, but none is draining away, would that indicate that the clog lies in the plumbing past the garbage disposal, and not in the garbage disposal itself? When the garbage disposal is clogged is the mechanism jammed, and the motor sounds like it is struggling to rotate the device, or what does a clogged garbage disposal sound? What are the indicators that the clog exists within the garbage disposal?
Just tried the plunger method as my husband didn't want me messing with anything down below and screwing it up worse (although I think with your guidance I would've been fine 😉). Tried the plunger method, about 4 tries since I was being extra careful like you explained, and it cleared it right up! All while my husband was sitting on the couch reading what to do! I said, "already fixed it!" Thanks to you!!!

Thank you so much!!! I fixed my sink in 2 minutes. It was clogged for two weeks. I was losing my mind. I was scared to ask my landlord because she raises the rent everytime something is fixed. Thank you again! God bless you and your family!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
Does the work when black water has come up from my garbage disposal? Because I am in the same boat and I want to fix it myself. What can I do to get rid of the clog and the black water that has backed up from my garbage disposal?
Isn’t your landlord liable to fix broken items? It sounds illegal for them to raise your rent. If anything you should be able to deduct the cost of fixing items from your monthly rent
Hot effin darn! All I had to do was turn the Allen key from a set I had in thr tool box clockwise and I could hear draining, and it worked after that! Whoo hoo, thanks! I was stressing and thinking o great more money, and water sat in the drain all day I didn't know what to do. YT and your video plus the last one to the rescue! The plunger was next, we have one labeled "sink" and thank you for the warnings about light pressure due to the precautions! Glad I didn't need it. And I found some things under the sink I didn't need to rebuy 🥳

Thanks so much for the tips. I had already tried using the plunger but water was still standing in the sink even though it had gone down some. The one thing I didn't do was turn on the disposal after using the plunger. That took care of everything. This was a great help.
Thank you so much for this helpful fix, the toilet plunger trick worked for me. Ill never put a dozen egg shells down the garbage disposal again. Never thought of the toilet plunger, you saved me hours of work trying to fix it . Thank you again and now im a lifetime subscriber.
Now that is a lot of egg shells and good call - let’s just trash those from now on - haha! Appreciate your comment and the context and glad the plunger worked for you! - DIYNate
Really happy to have helped and always love hearing it saved folks a service call! Money saved is money earned - haha! Appreciate the comment! - DIYNate
The plunger worked for me almost immediately - I don't understand *how* it works, but it did the job and saved me a big bill and a week of eating off paper plates while waiting for the plumber to come out. Thank you!!
Great to hear - happy to hear it saved some money and paper plates! Basically, some stuff gets clogged in the drain pipe and the pressure from the plunger unsticks the jam and pushes it further down and separates so it can get through to the sewer. Hope that helps and thanks for your comment! - DIYNate
Oh my gosh... THANK YOU!! I did NOT want to tell my husband I stopped up the disposal!! I fixed it, thanks to you!! With the Allen wrench - THANK YOU!!
That is what I am talking about! Although I know if my wife told me she got the sink clogged then watched a UA-cam video and got it unclogged, I would be really impressed and proud of her as well - haha! Appreciate the comment and great job on the fix! - DIYNate
Just as Nate said, I am really impressed with someone who is not afraid to take matters into their own hands and "charge on" and fix it. You can now add that to your resume!
Thanks for all that you do, You probably saved me between a $300 and $400 plumbing bill! Our kitchen sink garbage disposal was turning so I went to your second step the plunger and WOW did that work! So thanks.
Helped a ton, not sure why I didn't think of plunger method, but I needed both. Plunger at the top for fluid blockage then had to do a couple turns at the bottom to free up the blade. I believe fear of messing something up is why we dont think of the simple things. Really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything.
Clogged disposal 1 week before Thanksgiving and a shortage of plumbers everywhere. The plunger worked immediately. I'm my wife's hero - today. Thank you.
Awesome, Andre! Thanks for letting me know it worked and if you know me, you know how much I love saving money for myself and certainly love hearing the video helped other people save some money and the hassle of hiring a professional. Really appreciate your comment! - DIYNate
My sink was clogged and I thought it would take a lot of effort and work since it's my first time on my own. But it was fixed easily with the plunger. Thank you
Love hearing this - glad to help and thanks for letting me know! Good luck being on your own for the first time - I always think it feels great each time I learn how to fix a new problem I come across! I always feel like I am getting better for the future! Take care, DIYNate
Very nice and great job getting it done without hassling hubby! Hope you told him afterwards that you got it done - I am sure he was impressed and glad to not have to deal with it himself (if he is anything like me). Thanks for the comment! Best, DIYNate

The plunger worked instantly!!!! Thanks, thumbs up and much appreciated. Thought my Christmas cleanup was going to be hard, but this video saved my life.
Thank-you, thank-you, thank-you! You just not only saved us money by avoiding calling a plumber, but relieved a bunch of stress for my wife and I. Everything is now running free!
THANK YOU NATE!!! The clog occurred the day before Thanksgiving around 3:00pm. I used Drano Max and left for a few hours. Got back at 6:00pm, no change. After about 4 plunges, I ran the disposal, no more clog. You saved Thanksgiving!!! 😂
The plunger method worked for me also! Thanks! Tip - Just be sure to place a cup over your dishwashers overflow valve located at the top of the sink, near the faucet. Otherwise, you may get splashed when you plunge the blockage.
Glad to hear it worked for you and good point on the overflow valve. Don’t thin my sink has one of those, but for those that do, seems like that would help! Thanks for the comment! - DIYNate
Omg! Thank you so much Nate! I appreciate you man. I’m in a senior community complex, and they were gonna charge me big time. My disposal has been clogged for the past 3 days, I tried the Allen wrench, but there was no hexagon shapy thing under mines. So I used the plunger….and boom! All free n clear🤗 Thanks man!👌🏾 you’re the 💣!
Love hearing it helped you out! Thanks for the context as well - my folks are in a senior community as well so can totally appreciate that - thrilled to hear you got it fixed and thanks for the comment! - DIYNate
Hey thanks a lot my sink was clogged watched your easy fix video and decided to try the plunger method and it worked alike a charm. The last time I called a plumber and this time I was like let me google on UA-cam. Thanks for sharing.
First method with the allen wrench did the trick. Thanks for your video! Money isn't in abundance these days and I wasn't thrilled with the idea of buying a new one.
I had tried using a toilet plunger before watching your video but was unsuccessful and thought maybe I should use a sink plunger (which I didn't have) instead of a toilet plunger. I was concerned about damaging my disposal. I made an appointment with a plumber but would have to wait until Monday and wouldn't have a working sink all weekend. After watching your video, I decided to try again with the toilet plunger. This time I got on a ladder as I'm short and not very strong. Being above the sink gave me the leverage I needed and I was able to unclog my drain quickly. I had a working sink on a Friday night and saved myself a plumber bill and not having the use of my sink all weekend. Thank you!
Hey Pam - great to hear you got the clog cleared with the plunger method and sounds like you had an interesting adjustment to the approach with the ladder! Glad to have helped and love hearing people say that it saved a plumber bill and a frustrating weekend! Appreciate your comment - great context! Best wishes, - DIYNate
Excellent - very good to hear! Thanks for letting me know and leaving a comment (it helps my channel performance and keeps me motivated that it is helping folks!). Take care, DIYNate
thank you so much! So helpful. I was able to use the plunger method. It took 3 tries but when it finally released I was so thrilled! Truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge here!
HI Nate - I'm still working on it. You already saved me some grief because I was eyeing the disposal and how to take the whole thing down. I remember installing this new one a while back and it was heavy as concrete, quite hard to hold in place and tighten alone. I'm reasonably sure I have a clog inside the disposal, probably in the teeth that grind stuff up. The motor sounds locked up and is not turning like it should sound. I'm taking a break at the moment as I am partially handicapped. So I am resting and reading UA-cam. Your post was the first one I found and it looks like it covers all the bases. i just need to put it "to work." I will get back to you, hopefully with good news in a while.
74 years old..... can't afford a plumber, eas sure I couldn't do it. Watched your video, you kept it simple, visual and gold stars for that. I did it, thanks to your help!
@jeanenehoward5798 - you are exactly what inspires me to make videos like this. Really love you sharing and thrilled that my video could help you get that good feeling of getting it done. I know I have benefitted from a ton of other people who put helpful videos out and watching a video to figure out how to solve a problem is a way of life for me. Really appreciate your kind words. Best wishes, DIYNate
Hi Nate I tried the plunger method for the second time and just like the 1st time it works! Thanks Nate for this video. There’s just one thing I would recommend is make sure you put the drain stopper in the other side of the sink.
Thanks Trina - glad to hear the plunger method has now had a second successful run! Good call on stopping the other side as well - thanks for the mention there! - DIYNate
Thanks man. I used the plunger on the non disposal side first since I didn’t think it would work on the disposal side. But it worked like a charm the way you showed. Thanks
Oh Nate thank you so much for sharing the plunger tip!! Just one gentle pump, and it worked like a charm 😭 I was in a mini panic mode the night before going on a 4 day out of town trip, not wanting to dissemble the pipes but also not wanting to come back to a stinky apartment!! Thanks again for showing this easy quick fix!!!
Love that - glad to hear the plunger worked for you, Singh! That should make things a lot better for when you come home. Appreciate your comment and very glad to have helped! - DIYNate
Had a very slow drain and after adding liquid plumber, waiting for 30 minutes and running hot water it actually was worse with complete standing water. I saw your video and the step with the plunger cleared it right up. Thank you. Any thoughts on why the liquid plumber did work but the plunger immediately did?
Hello Mario - tough to say on Liquid Plumber for sure, but think of it as a solvent (has to take time to dissolve whatever is down there). If there was a thick block, it may have been trying to dissolve a large amount of stuff which could be a slow process. By comparison, the plunger method uses pressure from the top and pushes water against the blockage to force that stuff past the stopped up area. So it likely released the large blockage and got it past the area where things got clogged. That is my best assessment and glad to hear it worked out for you! Thanks for the comment! - DIYNate
Thanks for posting this video! I had no idea about using the Allen wrench. I’ve been annoyed with my clogged sink and “broken” garbage disposal for a month now. If only I had known how EASY it was to fix it!
Thanks for your comment, Bekah - you are totally right! So often I find out I put off a project that was a really easy fix and it just looked like it was going to be tough. Really happy to help and appreciate your awesome comment! - DIYNate
Hey, Just wanted to say this video rocks! Did all three things you showed plus 2 more checking behind each thing.. plus used a broom stick to try and turn the garbage disposal disc with leverage from the top. It turned a little bit, however, that didn't allow the garbage disposal to turn on. Plus, pressed the button on the bottom of the garbage disposal.. ( from under the sink on bottom of disposal). Then I tried the plunger & pressed several times... not too hard, as I have a sink mounted to the underside of my counter tops too.. Thanks for that tip! It worked like a charm! Thank U, thank U thank U! 😊
Hey there - you are absolutely welcome! Sounds like you went through the ringer with different ways of troubleshooting! Really glad to hear the plunger did the trick after all you went through and nice job being determined to get it done. Thanks a ton for your comment and for watching! - DIYNate
Excellent, Kim - thanks for letting me know and glad you were able to put both into play in getting your sink / disposal running smoothly again. I really appreciate you letting me know with your comment - it helps my channel perform well (and puts a smile on my face knowing someone isn't dealing with the stress/cost of calling a plumber or sitting there with a sink full of water)! - DIYNate
Oh Wow! You just saved me $200+ hours Nathan. Thank you so much. I had a clogged disposal and it was making all sorts of noise. There was a mess in the sink. The water was rising instead of draining and all of a sudden, the blade stopped spinning and I thought for sure it was gone. I started pricing new machines and thought, let me see if I can install it myself to save money. So I jumped on UA-cam and after watching one video, I got overwhelmed, but your video was next in line and thought what the hey, let me see what Nate has to say, Never would of thought to plunge it because I thought that the mechanism was setup to bypass the pipes directly and that I would possibly damage the disposal. I took your instruction to plunge lightly and it took a few tries because I was not strong enough to push the plunger down. Once I did a side push, the plunger went down and I had to plug the other drain because all the air was going out of it and not down the pipe. Once plugged, I can hear that the water was being forced down and so did the clog. Thank you! Thank you! and Thank you!
Hey Lisa - This ranks up there as one of my all-time favorite comments - haha! Love hearing it saved you money and time, and that you were on the verge of going through an entire disposal replacement when you landed on the plunger hack. Thrilled to hear it worked for you and appreciate the narrative - that puts a smile on my face, as I can totally relate. UA-cam has helped me so many times on my project / problem of the day, week, month, year even, so great to hear this was a win for you. Really appreciate you watching and leaving such positive feedback - best wishes! - DIYNate
Thank you for the tip. Had to plunge several times as it would not clear. It came up the other sink. Finally ran disposal and plunged the other side and with a prayer or two and it was clear. Awesome.
Glad to hear the plunger got you clear, Debra! Sometimes the other side of the sink will let some air / water out so stopping that side up can help with the compression. Sounds like you got it solved and glad you are back up and running. Thanks for letting me know! Best, DIYNate
Thank you so much! Saved my wife and I a trip to the hardware store on Christmas eve. Allen wrench did the trick this time. Will definitely be getting a plunger to have on-hand in the future.
Nate you rock!!! Watched the clogged garbage disposal video! Thought I was going to have to buy and replace it but did the plunger and Allen wrench and it worked!!! Keep it up. Thanks buddy!
Sara - thanks so much for your comment! I love seeing feedback like this and appreciate you letting me know it helped and saved you some $$$ and effort. Appreciate it! - DIYNate
Thank you for sharing! I tried #1, but my garage disposal didn't have a spot to turn the blade with an Allen wrench. Then I tried the plunger with no luck. I kept trying with the plunger and also decided to plug one of the sinks so that there'd be more pressure from the plunger after reading one of the comments about closing all air. A few more tries and it did the trick! Thanks again!
Great to hear it worked for you and yea, plugging the open air areas helps create pressure so glad you saw that in the comments. Thanks for letting me know! - DIYNate
Thanks for these tips - this may seem obvious but I figured I’d just ask since I didn’t hear it in the video - after you use the 1/4 Allen tench tool, do you tighten it back up again after, or just leave it loose?
Good question - it actually shouldn’t be unscrewing anything - it is just rotating the blade so you shouldn’t have to do anything else with it, if the blade spins freely when you are turning the Allen wrench. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment! Good luck! - DIYNate
Great to hear both of the solutions helped you work through the clog! And I love hearing it saved $$$ on a plumber visit! Appreciate you letting me know! - DIYNate
This video helped me clear a garbage disposal line clog with only a simple plunger. I never would have known if this video wasn't available, soooooo, THANK YOU!

Great to hear the plunger method worked for you, Ronnie! Thanks for letting me know! - DIYNate
Thank you so much Nate! You saved my day!
Thank you so much for this helpful fix, the toilet plunger trick worked for me. Ill never put a dozen egg shells down the garbage disposal again. Never thought of the toilet plunger, you saved me hours of work trying to fix it . Thank you again and now im a lifetime subscriber.
Now that is a lot of egg shells and good call - let’s just trash those from now on - haha! Appreciate your comment and the context and glad the plunger worked for you!

The plunger worked for me almost immediately - I don't understand *how* it works, but it did the job and saved me a big bill and a week of eating off paper plates while waiting for the plumber to come out. Thank you!!
Great to hear - happy to hear it saved some money and paper plates! Basically, some stuff gets clogged in the drain pipe and the pressure from the plunger unsticks the jam and pushes it further down and separates so it can get through to the sewer. Hope that helps and thanks for your comment!
- DIYNate
Oh my gosh... THANK YOU!! I did NOT want to tell my husband I stopped up the disposal!! I fixed it, thanks to you!! With the Allen wrench - THANK YOU!!
That is what I am talking about! Although I know if my wife told me she got the sink clogged then watched a UA-cam video and got it unclogged, I would be really impressed and proud of her as well - haha!
Appreciate the comment and great job on the fix!
- DIYNate
Just as Nate said, I am really impressed with someone who is not afraid to take matters into their own hands and "charge on" and fix it. You can now add that to your resume!
Plunger I never would’ve thought, thanks!
The plunger certainly has been a surprise and easy fix for a lot of folks! Thanks for your comment!

Thanks for all that you do, You probably saved me between a $300 and $400 plumbing bill! Our kitchen sink garbage disposal was turning so I went to your second step the plunger and WOW did that work! So thanks.

Very welcome - thanks for your comment!

Helped a ton, not sure why I didn't think of plunger method, but I needed both. Plunger at the top for fluid blockage then had to do a couple turns at the bottom to free up the blade. I believe fear of messing something up is why we dont think of the simple things. Really appreciate you taking the time to explain everything.
Thanks so much for your comment and glad both the plunger and Allen wrench combo worked well for you. Thanks for your comment!

THANK YOU NATE!!! The clog occurred the day before Thanksgiving around 3:00pm. I used Drano Max and left for a few hours. Got back at 6:00pm, no change. After about 4 plunges, I ran the disposal, no more clog. You saved Thanksgiving!!! 😂

The plunger method worked for me also! Thanks!
Tip - Just be sure to place a cup over your dishwashers overflow valve located at the top of the sink, near the faucet. Otherwise, you may get splashed when you plunge the blockage.
Glad to hear it worked for you and good point on the overflow valve. Don’t thin my sink has one of those, but for those that do, seems like that would help!
Thanks for the comment! - DIYNate
Bless you! ☺️ The plunger worked. It’s the weekend and I did not want to pay overtime. 😅
Yeah, shoulda read your tip… just splashed dirty water everywhere… at least we both laughed about it
The plunger did the trick and saved me a lot of money, thanks!

All free n clear🤗 Thanks man!👌🏾 you’re the 💣!

First method with the allen wrench did the trick. Thanks for your video! Money isn't in abundance these days and I wasn't thrilled with the idea of buying a new one.
Love hearing this video saved you some $$ - thanks for letting me know!
- DIYNate
I had tried using a toilet plunger before watching your video but was unsuccessful and thought maybe I should use a sink plunger (which I didn't have) instead of a toilet plunger. I was concerned about damaging my disposal. I made an appointment with a plumber but would have to wait until Monday and wouldn't have a working sink all weekend. After watching your video, I decided to try again with the toilet plunger. This time I got on a ladder as I'm short and not very strong. Being above the sink gave me the leverage I needed and I was able to unclog my drain quickly. I had a working sink on a Friday night and saved myself a plumber bill and not having the use of my sink all weekend. Thank you!
Hey Pam - great to hear you got the clog cleared with the plunger method and sounds like you had an interesting adjustment to the approach with the ladder! Glad to have helped and love hearing people say that it saved a plumber bill and a frustrating weekend! Appreciate your comment - great context!

That is a good feeling when it works and the water starts draining again! Thanks very much for your kind comment!
- DIYNate
HI Nate - I'm still working on it. You already saved me some grief because I was eyeing the disposal and how to take the whole thing down. I remember installing this new one a while back and it was heavy as concrete, quite hard to hold in place and tighten alone. I'm reasonably sure I have a clog inside the disposal, probably in the teeth that grind stuff up. The motor sounds locked up and is not turning like it should sound. I'm taking a break at the moment as I am partially handicapped. So I am resting and reading UA-cam. Your post was the first one I found and it looks like it covers all the bases. i just need to put it "to work." I will get back to you, hopefully with good news in a while.
Good luck, John! I hope you are able to get it working again and definitely appreciate your comment!
Best,
DIYNate
74 years old..... can't afford a plumber, eas sure I couldn't do it.

Hi Nate I tried the plunger method for the second time and just like the 1st time it works! Thanks Nate for this video. There’s just one thing I would recommend is make sure you put the drain stopper in the other side of the sink.
Thanks Trina - glad to hear the plunger method has now had a second successful run! Good call on stopping the other side as well - thanks for the mention there!
- DIYNate
thank you so much,once drain was closed on other sink....Bravo! Job well done. Thanks again!
Thanks man. I used the plunger on the non disposal side first since I didn’t think it would work on the disposal side. But it worked like a charm the way you showed. Thanks
Awesome David - glad you got it squared away and thanks for your comment!

Oh Nate thank you so much for sharing the plunger tip!! Just one gentle pump, and it worked like a charm 😭 I was in a mini panic mode the night before going on a 4 day out of town trip, not wanting to dissemble the pipes but also not wanting to come back to a stinky apartment!! Thanks again for showing this easy quick fix!!!

Had a very slow drain and after adding liquid plumber, waiting for 30 minutes and running hot water it actually was worse with complete standing water. I saw your video and the step with the plunger cleared it right up. Thank you. Any thoughts on why the liquid plumber did work but the plunger immediately did?
Hello Mario - tough to say on Liquid Plumber for sure, but think of it as a solvent (has to take time to dissolve whatever is down there). If there was a thick block, it may have been trying to dissolve a large amount of stuff which could be a slow process. By comparison, the plunger method uses pressure from the top and pushes water against the blockage to force that stuff past the stopped up area. So it likely released the large blockage and got it past the area where things got clogged. That is my best assessment and glad to hear it worked out for you! Thanks for the comment! - DIYNate
Thank you!! The plunger method is what got things going again!!
appreciate you letting me know and glad you are running well again!

Hey, Just wanted to say this video rocks! Did all three things you showed plus 2 more checking behind each thing.. plus used a broom stick to try and turn the garbage disposal disc with leverage from the top. It turned a little bit, however, that didn't allow the garbage disposal to turn on. Plus, pressed the button on the bottom of the garbage disposal.. ( from under the sink on bottom of disposal). Then I tried the plunger & pressed several times... not too hard, as I have a sink mounted to the underside of my counter tops too.. Thanks for that tip! It worked like a charm! Thank U, thank U thank U! 😊

Oh Wow! You just saved me $200+ hours Nathan. Thank you so much. I had a clogged disposal and it was making all sorts of noise. There was a mess in the sink. The water was rising instead of draining and all of a sudden, the blade stopped spinning and I thought for sure it was gone. I started pricing new machines and thought, let me see if I can install it myself to save money. So I jumped on UA-cam and after watching one video, I got overwhelmed, but your video was next in line and thought what the hey, let me see what Nate has to say, Never would of thought to plunge it because I thought that the mechanism was setup to bypass the pipes directly and that I would possibly damage the disposal. I took your instruction to plunge lightly and it took a few tries because I was not strong enough to push the plunger down. Once I did a side push, the plunger went down and I had to plug the other drain because all the air was going out of it and not down the pipe. Once plugged, I can hear that the water was being forced down and so did the clog. Thank you! Thank you! and Thank you!
Hey Lisa -
This ranks up there as one of my all-time favorite comments - haha! Love hearing it saved you money and time, and that you were on the verge of going through an entire disposal replacement when you landed on the plunger hack. Thrilled to hear it worked for you and appreciate the narrative - that puts a smile on my face, as I can totally relate. UA-cam has helped me so many times on my project / problem of the day, week, month, year even, so great to hear this was a win for you.
Really appreciate you watching and leaving such positive feedback - best wishes!

Thank you for the tip. Had to plunge several times as it would not clear. It came up the other sink. Finally ran disposal and plunged the other side and with a prayer or two and it was clear. Awesome.
Glad to hear the plunger got you clear, Debra! Sometimes the other side of the sink will let some air / water out so stopping that side up can help with the compression. Sounds like you got it solved and glad you are back up and running. Thanks for letting me know!

I tried #1, but my garage disposal didn't have a spot to turn the blade with an Allen wrench. Then I tried the plunger with no luck. I kept trying with the plunger and also decided to plug one of the sinks so that there'd be more pressure from the plunger after reading one of the comments about closing all air. A few more tries and it did the trick! Thanks again!
Great to hear it worked for you and yea, plugging the open air areas helps create pressure so glad you saw that in the comments. Thanks for letting me know!

You are very welcome - great to hear it helped relieved some stress and thank you very much for the friendly comment!
- DIYNate
Thanks for these tips - this may seem obvious but I figured I’d just ask since I didn’t hear it in the video - after you use the 1/4 Allen tench tool, do you tighten it back up again after, or just leave it loose?
Good question - it actually shouldn’t be unscrewing anything - it is just rotating the blade so you shouldn’t have to do anything else with it, if the blade spins freely when you are turning the Allen wrench. Hope that helps and thanks for the comment! Good luck!
- DIYNate
