FAQs
What are the most common signs my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Frequent resets, persistent clogs, unusual grinding noises, water pooling under the sink, and foul odors that cleaning won’t remove are strong indicators that the disposal’s blades, motor, or seals are failing and should be inspected by a licensed plumber.
Can you fix any brand of garbage disposal in Cosby, or only certain models?
Our licensed plumbers service and repair all major brands—including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, and GE—as well as many lesser-known models. We keep a stock of universal parts on our trucks, so most repairs are completed during the first visit.
How quickly can you get to my home in Cosby for a garbage disposal emergency?
For urgent issues such as leaks that could damage cabinetry or total unit failure, we offer same-day service throughout Cosby and surrounding Sevier & Cocke County neighborhoods. Calling before noon usually guarantees a same-day appointment.
Is it cheaper to repair my disposal or replace it with a new unit?
A repair is usually cost-effective if the disposal is less than eight years old and the motor is intact. However, if the unit has significant corrosion, a burnt-out motor, or is over a decade old, replacement may be the smarter long-term choice. We’ll provide a clear cost comparison on-site so you can decide confidently.
Do you offer any warranties on garbage disposal repairs?
Yes. All labor is backed by a 1-year workmanship warranty, and any replacement parts we install carry the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 1–5 years depending on the brand. If the same problem recurs within our warranty period, we return at no charge.
What can I do to prevent future garbage disposal problems?
Run cold water before and after use, avoid fibrous foods (celery, corn husks), hard materials (bones, fruit pits), and fats or grease. Grind small batches of food waste, and freshen the unit monthly with ice cubes and a slice of lemon. Scheduling an annual plumbing inspection helps catch developing issues early.
