FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Typical warning signs include frequent jams, a lingering foul odor that doesn’t go away after cleaning, loud metallic or grinding noises, water leaking from the unit or the sink flange, and a disposal that hums but won’t spin. If you notice any of these issues in your Norris home, it’s best to switch the unit off at the breaker and call our licensed plumbers for a safe inspection.
Do you provide same-day garbage disposal repair service in Norris?
Yes. Because our technicians operate out of clearly marked vans stocked with common disposal parts and tools, we can usually offer same-day repairs anywhere in Norris as long as you call before 2:00 p.m. Our dispatcher will give you a two-hour arrival window, and the technician will phone or text 30 minutes before arrival so you’re never left guessing.
Will I need to replace my disposal, or can you fix it?
About 70 % of the units we see in Norris can be repaired on the spot—often by resetting the motor, freeing an obstruction, tightening seals, or replacing a worn splash guard. If the motor armature is burned out or the grinding chamber is cracked, replacement is the more economical option. Our plumber will diagnose the issue, explain all costs up front, and let you decide whether repair or replacement makes better sense for your budget.
How much does garbage disposal repair cost?
Most repairs fall between $125 and $275, which includes the service call, labor, and common replacement parts such as gaskets, impellers, or reset switches. You’ll receive a written estimate before any work begins, and we waive the diagnostic fee if you move forward with the repair. We also offer a 1-year workmanship warranty for every disposal job in Norris.
Are your plumbers licensed, insured, and background-checked?
Absolutely. All of our technicians hold current Tennessee plumbing licenses, carry full liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and pass annual background and drug screenings. Our company name and license number are printed on every clearly marked van, so you know exactly who is at your door.
What can I do to prevent future garbage disposal problems?
Run plenty of cold water before, during, and after grinding food; avoid fibrous foods like celery, banana peels, or corn husks; feed scraps slowly instead of all at once; never pour grease or cooking oil down the disposal; and refresh the unit monthly with a mixture of ice cubes, rock salt, and a sliced lemon for odor control. Scheduling an annual plumbing checkup with us can also catch minor disposal issues before they turn into major repairs.
