FAQs
What are the most common signs my garbage disposal needs professional repair rather than a simple reset?
Warning signs include persistent humming with no grinding, frequent circuit breaker trips, foul odors that don’t go away after cleaning, water leaking from the unit or sink flange, and repeated jams even with small food particles. If resetting the disposal and clearing visible obstructions doesn’t restore normal operation, it’s best to call a licensed plumber to avoid motor damage or electrical hazards.
Do your licensed plumbers service all neighborhoods in the Dayton area?
Yes. Our team covers the entire Dayton metro region, including Kettering, Beavercreek, Huber Heights, Centerville, Oakwood, and surrounding suburbs. Because our technicians are dispatched from multiple local hubs, we can usually arrive within 60–90 minutes for urgent calls and schedule routine repairs at your convenience.
How much does garbage disposal repair typically cost in Dayton, and will I know the price before work begins?
Most minor repairs—such as clearing jams, replacing splash guards, or tightening loose connections—range from $95–$175. More extensive work, like replacing a cracked grinding chamber or installing new wiring, can run $200–$350. Our plumbers always perform a diagnostic inspection first and provide a written, upfront estimate. We never start work until you approve the pricing, and there are no hidden fees.
Is it safe to troubleshoot or unjam a garbage disposal on my own?
You can try basic steps like pressing the red reset button on the bottom of the unit, turning the manual hex key to free a simple jam, or unplugging the disposal to remove visible debris with tongs. However, inserting hands into the chamber, bypassing the splash guard, or tampering with electrical connections is dangerous and could void manufacturer warranties. If the unit still hums, leaks, or trips breakers after basic troubleshooting, you should call a licensed plumber to avoid injury or additional damage.
How quickly can you respond to emergency garbage disposal issues, such as flooding or a complete power outage?
We offer same-day and 24/7 emergency service throughout Dayton. For flooding sinks, electrical burning smells, or a disposal that has completely stopped mid-cycle, we prioritize dispatch and aim to be on-site within one hour. Our service trucks are stocked with common parts—seals, flanges, gaskets, and motors—so most disposals are repaired on the first visit.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured, and do you guarantee your garbage disposal repairs?
Absolutely. Every technician holds an Ohio journeyman or master plumbing license and carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. We stand behind our workmanship with a one-year parts and labor warranty on all garbage disposal repairs. If the same issue recurs within that period, we’ll return and fix it at no additional cost.
