FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs repair?
Watch for humming without grinding, frequent resets, water leaking from the unit or the sink cabinet, persistent foul odours, slow drainage, or the breaker tripping when you switch the disposer on. Any of these symptoms indicate internal wear, jammed impellers, motor issues, or loose seals that our tidy-workmanship plumbers in Elora can diagnose and fix quickly.
Do you provide same-day garbage disposal repair service in Elora?
Yes. Because we’re locally based in Elora, our technicians keep a daily schedule for emergency and same-day calls within the township and surrounding Wellington County. If you call before noon, we can usually dispatch a licensed plumber the same afternoon with the parts and tools to complete most repairs on the spot.
Can you repair any make or model of garbage disposal?
Absolutely. Our plumbers are trained on all major North American brands—including InSinkErator, Moen, Waste King, GE, and KitchenAid—as well as less common or discontinued models. We carry universal flanges, splash guards, gaskets, and switches on our service trucks, allowing us to handle repairs even when the original manufacturer parts are no longer readily available.
How much does garbage disposal repair cost, and what factors affect the price?
A routine repair in Elora typically ranges from $110 to $220 plus HST, which includes travel, diagnosis, and labour for common fixes such as un-jamming, wiring replacement, or gasket resealing. Costs rise for motor replacements, major leaks that require new plumbing connections, or units installed with hard-to-access cabinetry. We provide a firm, up-front quote before any work begins and never add hidden fees.
What maintenance steps can I take to avoid future garbage disposal problems?
Run cold water for 15–30 seconds before and after each use to keep fats solid and flush debris. Feed waste gradually rather than all at once, avoid fibrous foods (celery, corn husks), grease, and expandable starches like pasta or rice, and grind a few ice cubes with citrus peels monthly to clean the grinding chamber. An annual professional check-up by our tidy workmanship team will catch minor issues early.
Is it more economical to repair or replace an older garbage disposal?
If your unit is under eight years old and the repair costs less than half the price of a comparable new model, repair is usually the better value. However, if the motor is burnt out, the unit constantly leaks, or parts are obsolete, replacement may save you money in the long run. Our plumbers will outline both options, including warranty coverage on new installations, so you can make an informed decision.
