FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Warning signs include humming without grinding, frequent resets, leaking from the unit or plumbing connections, foul odors that won’t go away after cleaning, water backing up into the sink, and circuit breakers tripping when the disposal is turned on. If you notice any of these issues, shut off the unit and call our 24/7 La Follette plumbing team to avoid further damage.
Do you really provide 24/7 emergency garbage disposal service in La Follette?
Yes. Our licensed plumbing technicians are on-call around the clock—including nights, weekends, and holidays. Simply call our emergency line, and we’ll dispatch the nearest available technician to your La Follette address. There is no additional fee for after-hours calls; all pricing is provided up front before any work begins.
How quickly can a technician get to my home?
Because we keep fully stocked service vehicles stationed throughout Campbell County, our average response time inside La Follette city limits is 60 minutes or less. In severe weather or during peak periods, we’ll give you a realistic ETA before you commit to the service call.
Is it more cost-effective to repair or replace a malfunctioning garbage disposal?
If the unit is less than eight years old and the motor, bearings, and chamber are still in good shape, a repair is usually the most economical choice. However, if the motor has seized, the grinding chamber is cracked, or the repair cost exceeds 50% of a new unit, we typically recommend replacement. Our technician will inspect the disposal on-site and explain your options, complete with itemized costs and warranty details.
What brands and models can you service?
Our plumbers are trained to diagnose and repair all major garbage disposal brands, including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, GE, and Whirlpool. We carry OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts on our trucks, so most repairs can be completed in a single visit regardless of model or horsepower rating.
How can I prevent future garbage disposal jams, clogs, or breakdowns?
Run plenty of cold water before, during, and after grinding; cut large scraps into smaller pieces; avoid putting fibrous foods (celery, corn husks), starchy items (potato peels, rice, pasta), grease, or coffee grounds down the disposal; and never use chemical drain cleaners. Once a month, grind a few ice cubes with a tablespoon of rock salt to clean the blades, then flush with baking soda and vinegar to neutralize odors. Regular professional maintenance can further extend the unit’s life and efficiency.
