FAQs
What are the most common garbage disposal problems you repair in Mulberry?
Our technicians frequently handle jammed impellers, humming motors that won’t spin, chronic leaks from the sink flange or dishwasher inlet, units that trip the reset button, and disposals that fail to drain properly. We stock replacement parts for most major brands so we can resolve these issues in a single visit wherever you live in Mulberry.
How quickly can you get my garbage disposal working again?
Because we’re a local Mulberry plumbing team, same-day service is usually available when you call before noon. Standard repairs such as jam removal or electrical resets take 30–45 minutes, while motor replacements or extensive leak repairs may take 60–90 minutes. We give you an arrival window and a real-time text when the technician is en route.
What does garbage disposal repair typically cost?
Repair costs depend on the problem and the model, but most service calls in Mulberry fall between $95 and $225, including parts and labor. After a no-obligation inspection, we quote a flat price that won’t change once you approve it. If repair would cost more than 50 % of a new unit, we’ll recommend replacement and credit the diagnostic fee toward the install.
Is it better to repair or replace an older garbage disposal?
If your disposal is under eight years old and the housing is not cracked, repair is usually the most economical choice. Simple fixes like jam clearing, switch replacement, or flange resealing restore full function for years. Units over ten years old with motor failure, rusted grinding chambers, or repeated leaks are better candidates for replacement to avoid future breakdowns.
What should I try before calling for service?
1) Press the red reset button on the bottom of the disposal. 2) Make sure the wall switch or breaker hasn’t tripped. 3) Use a ¼-inch Allen wrench in the bottom hex slot to manually turn the impeller and free minor jams—always with the power off. 4) Check for foreign objects with tongs, never your hand. If these steps don’t restore operation or you notice leaking, shut the unit off and give us a call.
How can I prevent future garbage disposal problems?
Run cold water for 15–20 seconds before and after use, feed food gradually, and avoid putting fibrous peels, grease, pasta, rice, or coffee grounds down the unit. Every few weeks grind a handful of ice cubes with a slice of lemon to clean the chamber and reduce odors. An annual professional tune-up from our Mulberry technicians includes flange tightening, electrical testing, and drain line flushing to keep your disposal trouble-free.
