FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Persistent clogs, humming without grinding, water leaking from the unit or sink flange, foul odors that won’t go away after cleaning, and frequent resets on the red overload button all indicate a malfunction. If you notice any of these symptoms, turn off the disposal and call our Reliance team to prevent motor damage or electrical hazards.
How quickly can Reliance Plumbing dispatch a technician for garbage disposal emergencies?
We provide same-day service for calls received before 2 p.m. and 24/7 emergency response for active leaks or complete shutdowns. Most customers in Reliance can expect a qualified, background-checked technician at their door within 2–4 hours, fully equipped with replacement parts to finish the job in one visit whenever possible.
Do you service every make and model, or only certain brands of garbage disposals?
Our technicians are factory-trained to diagnose and repair all major brands—including InSinkErator, Moen, Waste King, KitchenAid, GE, and Whirlpool—as well as lesser-known and discontinued models. We carry a broad inventory of OEM and universal parts on our service vehicles, which helps us fix over 90 % of disposals without a special-order delay.
How much does garbage disposal repair usually cost, and what factors influence the price?
Typical repairs in Reliance range from $95 to $275. Costs depend on the complexity of the issue (jammed impeller vs. leaking seals), the need for replacement parts, unit horsepower, and access under the sink cabinetry. You’ll receive a written, flat-rate quote after our diagnostic inspection—no hidden trip fees or overtime charges—and we honor that price even if the job takes longer than expected.
When is it better to replace rather than repair my garbage disposal?
If your unit is 8–10 years old, has severe rust or cracked housing, or the motor armature is burned out, replacement is usually more economical. Likewise, repeated clogs in a small 1⁄3-HP disposal in a busy kitchen suggest an upgrade to a 3⁄4-HP or 1-HP model. Our plumber will outline both options so you can compare repair costs against the long-term value of a new, higher-capacity disposal.
What maintenance steps should I follow after the repair to keep my disposal running smoothly?
Run cold water for 10–15 seconds before and after each use, feed food waste gradually, avoid fibrous or starchy items (celery, potato peels), and grind citrus peels monthly to freshen. Every two weeks, pour a cup of ice cubes with a tablespoon of coarse salt to scour the grinding chamber. Never use chemical drain cleaners; instead, call Reliance Plumbing if performance declines.
