FAQs
How can I tell whether my garbage disposal needs a repair or a full replacement?
The most common signs your disposal only needs a repair are humming without grinding, minor leaks around the sink flange, jammed impellers, or a unit that trips the reset button but still has power. If the motor is burned out, the housing is cracked, or the unit is over 10–12 years old, replacement is usually more cost-effective. During a service call in Hixson, our technician runs electrical, mechanical, and leak tests to give you a clear recommendation before any work begins.
Why should I insist on genuine replacement parts instead of generic ones?
Genuine parts are engineered by the original manufacturer to match your disposal’s exact motor speed, torque, and mounting tolerances. This ensures quieter operation, less vibration, and a significantly longer service life. Generic parts may fit initially but often wear faster, void warranties, or cause leaks. We stock only factory-authorized components for Insinkerator, Moen, Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Waste King, and other major brands so Hixson homeowners get factory performance and full parts warranty coverage.
Which garbage disposal brands and models do you service in Hixson?
We repair and supply genuine parts for virtually every residential and light-commercial model, including Insinkerator Badger & Evolution series, Moen GX & Host Series, Waste King Legend & EZ Mount, Whirlpool GC, GE GFC, KitchenAid, Frigidaire, and Kenmore. If you have an older or discontinued unit, we can usually source OEM parts or offer a compatible replacement option.
Can you replace individual components like the splash guard, grind ring, or bearings instead of installing a whole new unit?
Absolutely. Many disposals fail because of worn splash guards, leaky sink flanges, or corroded grind rings—parts that can be swapped out quickly and economically. As long as the motor and housing remain in good condition, replacing these components can add years of life to your disposal for a fraction of the cost of a new unit. We carry the most common parts on our service trucks for same-day repairs in the Hixson area.
How long does a typical garbage disposal repair take, and will my kitchen be out of service?
Most repairs, such as clearing jams, replacing gaskets, or installing a new power cord, take 45–90 minutes. During the repair we shut off power and water only to the disposal branch, so your dishwasher and other sinks remain usable. If the unit must be removed, we protect the cabinet flooring and reconnect plumbing the same visit, keeping your kitchen downtime to a minimum.
Do you offer any warranty or service guarantee on your disposal repairs?
Yes. All genuine replacement parts carry the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 1 to 5 years depending on the brand. Our labor is guaranteed for a full year, which means if the same issue reappears within 12 months we’ll return to fix it at no charge. We also provide maintenance tips to help you avoid future clogs, odors, and premature wear.
