FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Frequent clogs, humming without grinding, water leaking from the unit or under the sink, foul odors that won’t go away after cleaning, and the disposal tripping the circuit breaker are all warning signs. If you notice any of these issues in your Louisville home, it usually means internal components—such as the flywheel, motor, or seals—have worn out or become jammed and need expert attention.
Can Electrical Hiccups Plumbing repair any brand or model of garbage disposal?
Yes. Our licensed plumbers are trained to diagnose and fix all major brands, including InSinkErator, Moen, Waste King, KitchenAid, GE, Whirlpool, and more. We carry a wide range of OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts on our service trucks, so most repairs can be completed in one visit anywhere in Louisville and the surrounding suburbs.
Is it safe to try repairing my garbage disposal on my own?
While minor issues like a simple reset or clearing a visible jam with the power OFF can be homeowner-friendly, many disposal problems involve electrical wiring, sharp impellers, or sealed plumbing connections. DIY attempts often end in further damage or personal injury. For safety and to preserve your manufacturer ’s warranty, we recommend calling our certified technicians who follow Louisville electrical and plumbing codes.
How fast can Electrical Hiccups Plumbing respond to a garbage disposal emergency in Louisville?
We offer same-day service for calls received before 2 PM and 24/7 emergency dispatch for severe leaks or electrical hazards. Most Louisville addresses are within a 30-minute drive of our centrally located shop, allowing us to arrive quickly with the right tools and parts.
What does a typical garbage disposal repair cost?
Because each job depends on the age, brand, and nature of the failure, prices vary. Simple fixes—such as clearing a jam, replacing a splash guard, or resetting wiring—usually fall between $99 and $175. Motor replacements or internal leaks that require extensive disassembly range from $200 to $350. We provide a flat-rate quote up front, so you’ll never see surprise charges on your final invoice.
Do you offer maintenance tips or ongoing service plans to extend the life of my disposal?
Absolutely. During a service call we walk you through safe cleaning techniques, foods to avoid (fibrous veggies, grease, coffee grounds), and best practices like running cold water before and after use. We also offer an annual Kitchen Drain & Disposal Tune-Up package that includes a full inspection, electrical safety check, deodorizing treatment, and a 10% discount on any needed parts.
