Garbage Disposal Repair in Oklahoma City, OK

Understanding which type you have is important when it comes to repairs and maintenance. Fortunately, our experienced repair specialists are adept at working with both types. Here’s a quick overview of the two: 

Continuous Feed 

These disposals operate as long as the switch is turned on. They usually include a rubber shield to keep food waste contained while grinding. 

Batch Feed 

Designed with safety in mind, these disposals only work when a specialized cap or lid is in place, making them a suitable choice for families with small children. 

When a repair requires new parts, we use only the highest quality components to ensure long-lasting results. Additionally, we offer a one-year warranty on parts and labor for our residential services. Common replacement parts include gaskets, motors, blades, and more.

While some minor issues like clogs can be resolved by the homeowner, more complex issues often require professional expertise. Attempting to repair garbage disposal without proper knowledge can lead to further damage or safety hazards.

Routine maintenance and proper use can help prevent frequent repairs. Cleaning and inspecting your garbage disposal every six months can extend its lifespan, but repairs may still be needed as the unit ages.

Avoid disposing of items like grease, bones, or fibrous foods, as these can cause clogs or damage. Always run cold water while operating the disposal and clean it regularly to prevent buildup.

Most repairs can be completed in a single visit, depending on the issue. Our service professionals will evaluate the problem and provide a time estimate during your appointment.

If your unit is over 10 years old, it frequently breaks down, or repairs are more expensive than a new system, replacing it might be a better option. Our team can advise you on the best course of action.
