FAQs
What are the most common signs my garbage disposal needs repair?
Typical indicators include persistent clogs, a humming motor without grinding, water leaking from the unit or sink flange, foul odors that cleaning won’t remove, and the disposal shutting off frequently via its reset button. Any of these symptoms suggest worn blades, a seized motor, or failed seals that require professional attention.
Can you service any brand or model of garbage disposal?
Yes. Our licensed plumbers are factory-trained to diagnose and repair all major brands—including InSinkErator, Waste King, Moen, KitchenAid, and GE—as well as less-common or older models. We keep a broad inventory of replacement parts on our service vans so most repairs can be completed in one visit.
How quickly can you reach my home in Walland for a garbage disposal repair?
We offer same-day service throughout Walland and surrounding Blount County communities. Calls received before noon are typically scheduled for repair that afternoon; later calls are booked for the next available appointment, often within 24 hours. Emergency after-hours service is also available for active leaks or electrical hazards.
What should I do if my garbage disposal is jammed or only makes a humming noise?
First, turn off the switch and unplug the unit or switch off its circuit breaker to prevent injury. Do not stick your hand inside the chamber. If you have an Allen (hex) wrench, you can try rotating the bottom flywheel manually to free a jam. If the unit still hums or trips the reset button, call our team. Continuing to run a stalled motor can overheat and permanently damage it.
Is it more cost-effective to repair or replace a malfunctioning garbage disposal?
We assess the unit’s age, horsepower, and extent of damage. Disposals under eight years old with minor issues—such as worn gaskets, jammed impellers, or failed switches—are usually economical to repair. Units older than ten years, with cracked housings, corroded chambers, or burnt-out motors, are better replaced. During our diagnostic visit, we provide a detailed quote for both options so you can make an informed choice.
How much does garbage disposal repair cost, and do you guarantee your work?
Most Walland garbage disposal repairs range from $95 to $225, depending on parts and labor required. You’ll receive upfront, flat-rate pricing before any work begins—no surprises. All repairs are backed by a 1-year parts and labor warranty, and new disposals we install carry manufacturer warranties of 3-10 years, plus our workmanship guarantee.
