Home Expert is a great choice! Extremely flexible, knowledgeable & willing to work around your schedule. Removed my 85” & hung my 98” with no problem. He also fix the stuck handle on my toilet (for an additional cost). If you’re looking for a reliable specialist to ensure the job is done right…….Home Expert should be your top choice.
The guys at Home Expert really knocked it out of the park with my furniture. I did not have time to put it all together and they were able to respond very quickly. I was surprised that they made it out on a Sunday and it only took them a few hours to get everything done. Their price was very fair as well. I do recommend them.
Did great work! Showed up and quickly mounted a tv and repaired two doors. Will definitely hire again.
I had a wonderful experience with Home Expert! He repaired our garbage disposal very well and made sure everything was working properly before he left. He also took the time to explain how to use it correctly and gave us helpful advice on how to take care of it and prevent future problems. He was very knowledgeable, professional, polite, and friendly. I really appreciated his patience and the nice way he explained everything. Excellent service, and I would definitely recommend Home Expert to others!

Garbage Disposal Repair Questions
What problems can you repair on a garbage disposal?
We inspect the disposal, test its power and switch, and identify the cause of the problem. Common issues include jams, worn parts, clogs, leaks, and electrical faults. We explain our findings before completing the repair.
Why is my garbage disposal humming but not grinding?
A humming disposal may have a jammed flywheel or motor issue. Turn it off and avoid putting your hand inside. We can safely inspect the unit, clear the obstruction when possible, and determine whether additional repair is needed.
How do you safely fix a jammed garbage disposal?
Never reach into the disposal. Turn off the switch and power at the breaker if needed. We use safe troubleshooting methods to find the blockage or mechanical problem without risking injury or causing more damage.
Can you repair a leaking garbage disposal?
Leaks may come from the sink flange, drain connection, dishwasher hose, or disposal body. We locate the source, check the connected parts, and complete the appropriate repair when the unit and components are serviceable.
Is garbage disposal repair better than replacing the unit?
Repair is often possible when the issue involves a jam, loose connection, switch, clog, or replaceable component. If the motor housing or main unit has failed, we explain the condition clearly and discuss the practical next step.
