FAQs
Why should I choose OEM parts for my garbage disposal repair?
Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are made by the same company that built your garbage disposal, so they match the unit’s exact specifications. This ensures proper fit, preserves your warranty, maintains original performance, and often extends the lifespan of the appliance compared to generic or aftermarket components.
What signs indicate my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Common warning signs include persistent clogs, unusual grinding or humming noises, water leaks beneath the sink, foul odors that won’t dissipate, and repeated breaker trips or power failures. If resetting the unit or basic troubleshooting doesn’t resolve the issue, it’s best to call a licensed plumber for diagnosis and repair.
Can you repair any brand of garbage disposal with OEM parts?
Yes. We stock OEM parts for all major brands—including InSinkErator, Moen, KitchenAid, Waste King, and GE. If we do not have a specific component in stock, we can typically source it within 24–48 hours from our regional distributors, ensuring your repair is completed with genuine parts only.
How quickly can you service my garbage disposal in Gatlinburg?
We offer same-day service for calls received before noon Monday through Friday and next-day service for later requests. Emergency after-hours service is also available. Most repairs take less than an hour once parts are on hand, so you can expect minimal kitchen downtime.
What does your garbage disposal repair service cost?
Our diagnostic visit is $59, which is waived when you proceed with the repair. Labor typically ranges from $95–$150 depending on complexity, and OEM parts vary by brand and model but average $35–$120. Before any work begins, we provide a flat-rate quote so you know the total cost up front—no hidden fees.
How can I maintain my garbage disposal after the repair?
Run cold water before, during, and after grinding food; avoid fibrous items (corn husks, celery), large bones, and grease; grind ice cubes and citrus peels monthly to clean the chamber; and use only small amounts of dish soap. Scheduling an annual inspection can also catch wear early and keep your unit performing like new.
