If your disposal makes unusual noises, is not grinding food properly, leaks, or is not turning on, it may need repairs. Slow drainage and persistent odors can also indicate underlying issues.
Some minor issues, like a simple clog or pressing the reset button, can be DIY fixes. However, if the problem involves electrical components, jammed blades, or persistent leaks, it’s best to call a professional to avoid further damage or safety hazards.
Costs vary depending on the issue, but repairs typically range from $100 to $300. If your disposal is old or severely damaged, replacing it might be more cost-effective. At Thunderbird Plumbing, we provide upfront pricing so you know what to expect.
Most repairs can be completed within an hour. More complex issues, such as motor replacements or extensive plumbing adjustments, may take longer. Our technicians work efficiently to minimize disruption to your kitchen.
If your disposal is over 8–10 years old, frequently clogs, leaks, or has a burned-out motor, replacement might be the best option. Our team can assess your unit and recommend whether repair or replacement is the most cost-effective choice.
