FAQs
What are the most common signs my garbage disposal needs professional repair in Dunlap?
Frequent tripping of the reset button, persistent clogs, abnormal grinding noises, water leaking from the unit or under the sink, and foul odors that won’t go away after cleaning all signal that your disposal needs service. If you notice any of these symptoms, turn the unit off to prevent further damage and schedule a professional inspection.
Is it usually more cost-effective to repair or replace a malfunctioning garbage disposal?
It depends on the age and condition of the unit. Disposals under 7–8 years old with isolated issues—such as jammed impellers, minor leaks, or electrical resets—are typically good repair candidates. If the motor is burnt out, the grinding chamber is cracked, or the unit is over 10 years old and frequently jams, replacement is often more economical. Our Dunlap technicians will provide an assessment and transparent recommendation before any work begins.
How long does a typical garbage disposal repair appointment take?
Most routine repairs (jam removals, seal replacements, or wiring fixes) take 45–90 minutes. If parts are readily available on the truck, we complete the job in one visit. Complex motor or flange replacements can extend the appointment to two hours. We always give you an estimated timeframe when scheduling and keep you updated if anything changes.
Are your plumbers licensed and insured to work on garbage disposals in Dunlap?
Yes. Every technician we send is a state-licensed plumber and carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. We comply with all local Dunlap codes and manufacturer specifications, so your repair is safe, warranty-protected, and up to code.
What should I do before the technician arrives for my garbage disposal repair?
Turn off power to the disposal at the wall switch, then at the circuit breaker if possible. Clear out items stored under the sink so the technician has easy access to the disposal, drainpipes, and electrical outlet. If the sink is backed up, avoid using chemical drain cleaners—they can damage components and create hazards for our plumber. Finally, jot down any noises, smells, or incidents you observed to help with diagnostics.
How much does garbage disposal repair cost, and do you provide upfront estimates?
Basic repairs in Dunlap start around $120–$150, which covers diagnostics, jam removal, and minor adjustments. More involved jobs—such as replacing seals, flanges, or electrical components—range from $180–$300, while motor replacements can approach $350–$450. Before starting work, we inspect the unit, explain the problem, and present a written, flat-rate estimate so you know the exact cost—no hidden fees or surprise charges.
