FAQs
What signs indicate my garbage disposal’s motor is worn out and needs repair?
Common symptoms include frequent tripping of the reset button, a humming noise without blade movement, slow grinding, persistent clogs, or the unit shutting off mid-cycle. If you notice burning smells or the disposal won’t turn on at all, the motor windings may be damaged and professional service is recommended.
Can you repair any brand or model of garbage disposal in Calhoun?
Yes. Our Calhoun technicians carry parts for all major brands—InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, GE, and more. Even if your model is discontinued, we can usually source compatible motors, impellers, and seals through our regional suppliers.
How long does a typical worn-out motor repair take?
Most motor repairs or replacements are completed in one visit lasting 60–90 minutes. We arrive with a fully stocked truck, diagnose the unit, and either rebuild the motor assembly or swap in a factory-authorized replacement on the spot.
Is it ever better to replace the whole garbage disposal rather than repair the motor?
If your unit is 8–10 years old, shows corrosion, or needs multiple parts beyond the motor, replacement is often more cost-effective. Our technician will provide an on-site comparison so you can choose between motor repair and installing a new, warranty-covered disposal.
What does your garbage disposal motor repair service in Calhoun include?
Service includes a full diagnostic, removal of the disposal, replacement or rewinding of the motor, new gaskets and seals, impeller inspection, re-installation, leak testing, and a 1-year parts and labor warranty. We also give tips on proper use and maintenance.
Do you offer emergency garbage disposal repairs after hours in Calhoun?
Absolutely. We provide 24/7 emergency service within the Calhoun city limits and nearby areas. Call our hotline any time—nights, weekends, or holidays—and a licensed technician will be dispatched to restore your disposal promptly.
