FAQs
What are the most common signs that my garbage disposal in Newcomb needs professional repair?
Typical warning signs include humming without grinding, frequent resets, water leaking from the disposal or under the sink, persistent foul odors that cleaning won’t remove, slow drainage, and tripped circuit breakers when you switch the unit on. If you notice any of these issues, turn the disposal off and call Affordable Solutions Plumbing to prevent motor burnout or plumbing damage.
How fast can Affordable Solutions Plumbing get to my home for garbage disposal repairs in Newcomb?
We offer same-day service throughout Newcomb and surrounding suburbs. Calls received before 2 p.m. are usually attended within three hours, and emergency requests are handled 24/7. Our fully stocked service vans carry the most common replacement parts so most jobs are completed in a single visit.
What will garbage disposal repair cost and is there a service call fee?
Our standard diagnostic/service call fee is $59, which is waived when you authorize the repair. Most routine garbage disposal fixes—such as jam removal, wiring repairs, or flange replacements—fall between $120 and $220, parts and labor included. After diagnosing the problem on-site, we present a flat-rate written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprise charges.
Do you work on all brands and models of garbage disposals?
Yes. Our licensed plumbers are trained to repair and install all major brands, including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, and Whirlpool. We also stock genuine OEM parts for units up to 15 years old and can source hard-to-find components through our supplier network. If your disposal is beyond economical repair, we can recommend and install an energy-efficient replacement that fits your sink and plumbing connections.
Should I repair or replace a garbage disposal that’s more than 10 years old?
While many disposals last a decade or more, units older than 10 years often develop recurring motor or seal failures and may lack modern safety and noise-reduction features. As a rule of thumb, if the repair cost exceeds half the price of a new unit—or if the motor housing is cracked—replacement is usually more cost-effective. Our plumber will explain both options and help you decide based on the unit’s age, warranty status, and your budget.
How can I keep my garbage disposal working smoothly after it’s been repaired?
Run cold water before, during, and 15 seconds after use; feed waste gradually; avoid fibrous foods (celery, corn husks), coffee grounds, and grease; grind a few ice cubes monthly to clean the grinding chamber; and refresh with a mix of baking soda and vinegar followed by citrus peels. Scheduling an annual plumbing inspection with Affordable Solutions Plumbing will also catch minor issues before they become major repairs.
