FAQs

What are common signs that my garbage disposal needs repair?

Common signs include unusual noises such as grinding or screeching, persistent bad odors, water leaking under the sink, frequent clogging, and the disposal failing to turn on or working intermittently.

Can I try to repair my garbage disposal myself?

While minor issues like resetting the disposal or checking for clogs can be attempted by homeowners, it’s often safer to call a professional for more complex problems. Mishandling repairs can lead to further damage or void warranties.

How long does a typical garbage disposal repair take?

The time required for a repair can vary based on the issue's complexity. Minor repairs can take as little as 30 minutes, while more significant problems might require a few hours. Our technicians aim to complete repairs efficiently without compromising quality.

What can I do to maintain my garbage disposal and avoid frequent repairs?

To maintain your garbage disposal, avoid putting hard items (like bones), fibrous vegetables (like celery), and greasy or fatty substances down the drain. Regularly running cold water during use and occasionally grinding ice cubes to clean the blades can also help prolong its life.

When should I consider replacing my garbage disposal instead of repairing it?

If your disposal is frequently breaking down, over 10 years old, or if the cost of repairs approaches the price of a new unit, it might be more economical to replace it. A professional assessment can provide guidance on the best option for your situation.

Do you offer emergency garbage disposal repair services in Oak Ridge?

Yes, we offer emergency repair services to address urgent issues with your garbage disposal. Our team is available 24/7 to ensure your kitchen plumbing system remains functional and safe.

Jorge Saldana is a professional and personable person! He took care of installing a new kitchen faucet for us and installing a new garbage disposal. We didn’t realize the disposal would need to be replaced yet we’re so glad he did. The disposal had been there since the house was built in 2004. It had stopped working . Jorge saw another issue we had under the kitchen sink. So thankful for his good assessment, knowledge and training.He replaced 2 emergency shut off valves that were also leaking . Because of a couple of things that popped up while assessing, he was here 3 days in a row for shorter periods of time because of my work schedule . While Working steadily, he educated me along the way in answering my questions about the process, fees, model numbers of new equipment etc. I’m very pleased with the work Jorge did! Thank you, HEP Cleveland for sending him our way.

Replaced grinder/sewage pump. BBUR and Jorge did a great job under terrible weather conditions. They were very courteous and professional. And the office notified me and replaced the pump again when they recognize that the supply house gave them the incorrect pump.

Jorge and Steven were here today to install a new garbage disposal. They were very knowledgeable and did an excellent job. And, not only that...they had great personalities and we could tell they enjoyed their jobs. They are perfect examples that show us that Hep is a top-notch company made that way by their dedicated employees.
