A: If your disposal does nothing when you flip the switch, the most common causes are a tripped reset button (the red button on the bottom of the unit), a tripped breaker, a stuck impeller, or a burnt-out motor. For Pebble Creek homeowners, start by pressing the reset button. If it hums without spinning, something is jammed and the motor will burn out if you keep trying. We will diagnose and fix or replace on the spot, usually $279 to $450.

A: If your disposal is less than 5 years old and the jam is mechanical, repair usually makes sense. If it is 8+ years old, leaking from the bottom, or the motor is burned out, replacement is the better call.

A: We install InSinkErator (Badger and Evolution series), Waste King, Moen, and KitchenAid. For most Pebble Creek homes, we recommend InSinkErator 3/4 HP for the best balance of power and noise.

We help you pick based on household size and what actually goes down the drain.

A: Bad smells usually mean food debris is trapped in the splash guard or grinding chamber. Try running ice cubes with citrus peels and cold water for 30 seconds. standard water in Pebble Creek also leaves mineral film that holds odors. If the smell persists, the splash guard may need replacement (about $30 part, included in our $279 service call). A professional cleaning can reach buildup deeper in the unit.

A: In Pebble Creek, a humming disposal is almost always a jammed impeller — lime scale from Tampa Bay Water’s 8-12 GPG hardness can cement debris against the grinding ring, especially in units 20+ years old. We diagnose FREE and clear jams from $279. If the motor has been tripping the reset button more than once a month, a descale plus assessment is the next step.

A: Typical lifespan is 8-12 years. Pebble Creek’s 1990s builder-grade disposals are well past that range. Tampa Bay Water’s 8-12 GPG hardness means the internal components have absorbed significant mineral stress over 25-30 years. If your unit is at this age, the InSinkErator Evolution upgrade is almost always more cost-effective than a second or third repair.

A: Yes. FREE in-home diagnostic on every visit. The $279 minimum applies only to APPROVED repair work — never to the diagnostic visit.

A: If your current unit is 15+ years old and grinding well, upgrading to a 1 HP InSinkErator Evolution Excel is worth considering for two reasons: the noise reduction is significant (Evolution models run much quieter than older builder units), and the grinding efficiency means less partial-processed waste going down the drain. Pebble Creek’s well-configured 2-inch PVC drains accept the upgrade without any modification.
