FAQs
What are the most common signs my garbage disposal needs professional repair?
Warning signs include persistent humming without grinding, repeated circuit breaker trips, water leaking from the unit or sink flange, foul odors that won’t rinse away, and visible rust or cracks in the housing. If you notice any of these issues in your Sale Creek home, turn off the disposal and call our licensed plumbers to prevent further damage.
Do you service all brands and models of garbage disposals?
Yes. Our licensed technicians have the training and parts resources to repair every major brand sold in Tennessee, including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, GE, and Whirlpool. Whether your unit is batch-feed, continuous-feed, 1/3 HP or 1 HP, we can diagnose the problem and provide OEM-quality repairs or replacements.
How quickly can your plumbers reach my home in Sale Creek for an emergency garbage disposal repair?
We offer same-day and 24/7 emergency service throughout Sale Creek and surrounding Hamilton County communities. Calls received before noon are usually handled the same business day, while after-hours or weekend emergencies are dispatched within 60–90 minutes, depending on traffic and weather.
Is it better to repair or replace a malfunctioning garbage disposal?
Our plumbers evaluate the unit’s age, motor condition, and extent of damage. If your disposal is under 5 years old and parts are readily available, a repair is usually cost-effective. Units older than 8–10 years, with cracked housings, burnt-out motors, or obsolete parts, are often better replaced. We’ll present both options—including upfront pricing—so you can make an informed decision.
What temporary steps can I take if my garbage disposal suddenly stops working?
First, turn off the disposal switch and unplug the unit or flip the breaker to eliminate power. Use long-handled tongs (never your fingers) to remove visible obstructions. Press the red reset button on the bottom of the unit, then restore power and test. If it still hums, trips, or won’t start, discontinue use and schedule service. Running a faulty disposal can burn out the motor or cause leaks.
Do your garbage disposal repairs come with any warranty or cleanup guarantee?
Absolutely. All labor is backed by a one-year workmanship warranty, and replacement parts carry the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 2–5 years. After finishing the repair, our plumbers test the disposal, check for leaks, and clean the work area, leaving your kitchen as tidy as we found it.
