FAQs
What counts as an emergency garbage disposal repair?
An emergency exists any time the disposal is leaking, backing waste water into the sink or dishwasher, tripping the breaker repeatedly, smoking, or making loud grinding noises that prevent you from using the sink. These problems can cause water damage, foul odors, and even electrical hazards, so they warrant an immediate service call.
Are your plumbers available 24/7 in Andersonville?
Yes. Our licensed plumbing team is on-call around the clock—including nights, weekends, and holidays—to handle garbage disposal issues anywhere in Andersonville. When you call, you connect directly with a local dispatcher, not an answering service in another city.
How fast can a technician get to my Andersonville home?
Because our shop and technician network are located in or near Andersonville, the average response time is 60 minutes or less. You’ll receive a real-time ETA via text, and the truck arrives fully stocked with common replacement disposals and parts so most repairs can be completed in a single visit.
What kinds of garbage disposal problems do you repair?
We fix jammed flywheels, seized motors, leaking seals, cracked housings, damaged splash guards, loose electrical connections, drain line clogs, and disposals that only hum or won’t turn on at all. If the unit is beyond repair or undersized, we can replace it on the spot with a new, properly sized model.
Is it safe to troubleshoot the disposal myself before calling?
You can safely try three quick steps: (1) Turn off power to the unit, (2) press the red reset button on the bottom, and (3) use a ¼-inch Allen wrench in the flywheel socket to free a simple jam. Never put your hand into the chamber, and don’t run the motor if it’s humming or smoking. If these steps don’t work—or if you notice leaks or electrical issues—shut off the breaker and call us immediately.
How much will an emergency disposal repair cost?
Our technician will perform a diagnostic inspection and provide a written, flat-rate quote before any work begins. Basic jam removals start around $125, while more complex repairs involving seal replacement or motor issues range from $200–$350. If a full replacement is needed, prices—including parts, labor, and haul-away—start at $425. We honor the quoted price, waive the service fee with repair, and back our work with a one-year labor warranty.
