FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Warning signs include persistent clogs, humming without grinding, water leaking from the unit or the cabinet below, foul odors that don’t go away after cleaning, and frequent tripped breakers on the disposal’s reset button. If you notice any of these problems in your McDonald home, shut the unit off and call us—running a failing disposal can damage pipes and the motor.
How soon can you get to my house in McDonald, and will you have the parts with you?
Because our service trucks are fully stocked with the most-requested disposal motors, seals, flanges, splash guards, switches, and tools, we complete over 90 % of repairs on the first visit. If you call before 2 PM, we can usually provide same-day service anywhere in McDonald and nearby Washington or Allegheny County communities.
Can you service any brand or size of garbage disposal?
Yes. Our licensed plumbers regularly repair and install all leading brands—including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, and GE—as well as builder-grade and commercial disposals up to 1 HP. We carry OEM-approved replacement parts for the most common models on our trucks and can source specialty items within 24 hours if needed.
Will you have to remove my sink or countertop to fix the disposal?
In most cases, no. A standard garbage disposal bolts to the sink’s mounting flange, so we can detach the unit from below without disturbing the sink or countertop. Only severe flange corrosion or sink damage would require additional work, and we’ll explain all options and pricing before proceeding.
How much does garbage disposal repair cost, and do you provide upfront pricing?
Our diagnostic service fee starts at $79, which we waive if you approve the repair. After diagnosing the problem, your plumber will give you a flat, upfront quote that covers all labor, parts, and cleanup—no hourly surprises. Typical repairs in McDonald range from $140 for a jammed impeller to $320 for a motor replacement. If a new unit is more cost-effective, we’ll let you know and credit the diagnostic fee toward installation.
What can I do to prevent future garbage disposal problems?
Run plenty of cold water before, during, and after grinding; feed food waste slowly; avoid fibrous foods (celery, corn husks), fats and grease, expandable starches (rice, pasta), and non-food items. Periodically grind ice cubes with a few lemon peels to keep the blades clean and fresh. If you’re unsure whether something is disposal-safe, toss it in the trash instead—your pipes will thank you.
