"Fellow Angie-Listers,

I found Renaissance Restoration here on Angie's List. I was immediately intrigued based on the reviews I read here and the address of the business is within my neighborhood. I contacted them through Angie's List to see if they would be interested in submitting a bid to work on my kitchen and half-bath remodel that I had already started. Rene, the owner and name-sake (took me a while to get that) of the business, responded promptly and offered to come out for a free estimate. Now, at this point, my kitchen had been unusable for several weeks and I was not finding the time to progress it with any real speed. Rene came out the next day, Saturday, upon my request for a speedy turn-around so I could reclaim my kitchen. He showed up on time and took some measurements. He was friendly, courteous, and looked like he was taking careful notes as I rattled off my long ?to-do? list of what it would take to get the kitchen finished. I had received a few other bids for the work, but I was immediately sold on Rene. We agreed on a price right there and scheduled the work to begin within a couple of days.

Now, I can't speak for Rene and say that he does this for all his customers, but we worked things out so that I would pay his team on a per-hour contract to get the job done. Everyone is different, but I much preferred this arrangement. I wanted the workers to be able to do a nice job without cutting corners to meet an often arbitrary quoted price and if I didn't like their work I could simply thank them for their time and continue on with the work myself (or more likely, find another crew). Spoiler alert! Everything worked out well so I didn't have to go that road.

When construction started, the first morning, Rene and two of his carpenters showed up right on time. They introduced themselves politely and we immediately got to the business of going over what I wanted to accomplish in my kitchen. Again, they took careful notes and once they got started, I went about with other business. I quickly felt very comfortable letting them into my house unsupervised. I did check in at several points during the day and they made good progress; I had no doubts that they were working hard. After a few days, they had accomplished everything I had asked of them and then came back for a couple of hours to correct a couple of issues I had with their work. There was nothing major, just a few cosmetic issues, and if I recall correctly, they did not charge for their time to correct things.

At this point, I had them take a few days off and I worked myself to progress the kitchen. They had all the skills required to continue the kitchen and were certainly willing to do the work. I was just trying to save myself a little money and also I needed a few days break from the mayhem of construction. With that said, Rene and his team left the construction area a lot more tidy than I did. I had my tools all over the place and I have to say that I was really impressed that they never mistakenly took any of my tools home with them. I think that really illustrates their organization on the job site. At this point I'll just say that I provided all of the essential construction items for the job and had Rene pickup (with some surcharge) lots of those smaller items that always come up. Even though I bought all the fixtures, doors, toilet, flooring, etc. ahead-of-time, they were kind enough to pick up some of the last-minute bulky items I grabbed from The Home Depot without charge.

About a week later, I had the workers back on the job and because of their success, I had asked them to remodel a half-bath that is adjacent to the kitchen. So they were here in total, five days and were able to do my partial kitchen and my entire half-bath. The work that they did was: Install kitchen cabinets, fix dry-wall, primed the walls, Laminate flooring, back-splash tile, connected the kitchen sink, installed the garbage disposal, installed a toilet, replaced a door, built a shelf, installed a vent pipe for the oven range hood to the outside, replaced electrical outlets and switches, installed a new bathroom vanity top, did I miss anything Rene?

These guys were pretty multifaceted. If you're still reading this, then you should understand that I can be a very detailed oriented person. I would write more but Angie's List only allows so much. :) Rene worked well with my sometimes exacting personality. His team always took careful notes of what work was to be done. On one day in particular, they showed up in the afternoon, as scheduled, but instead of moving forward, they went home because they had lots of questions for me but I was unreachable at that time. I was disappointed that the work had to stop, but I appreciated that they would rather wait for me to get my input than to just forge ahead and then I'd just have to live with the consequences. So that leads me into my only problem that I occurred on the project.

During a discussion that Rene and I had about the project, Rene had told me that the kitchen sink was going to be a little bit tricky to install so because of that, he would have to bring in his plumber. I knew going into things that the sink I had ordered was going to be a tight fit, so I had already budgeted for a plumber. I gave Rene a verbal OK and we moved on. The next construction day, the plumber came and told me that the sink wasn't going to be too bad to install; it would just barely fit with the pipes the way they were. Great news; I went to work. That same night I received a follow-up email from Rene supplying me an itemized list of all the work the plumber had done and it equated to hundreds of dollars. I was a bit shocked because it included several line-items for work in the half-bath, none of which we had talked about doing. Installing a toilet and installing a new sink/faucet is not highly skilled work requiring a plumber, assuming there's no broken pipes, broken flanges, etc. Also, I never was consulted on any of the work and never quoted a price on it so I did feel a bit ticked-off at that point because the project was almost done and it had gone so smoothly up to that point.

The next day I summoned Rene to the house and we talked it over. We resolved the issue by his giving me a break on the price, but as soon as we closed on that deal, he went on to disclose that the gentleman he had do the plumbing work was not actually a licensed plumber. Rene insisted that a licensed plumber would have cost a lot more. However, I had already gotten some quotes from licensed plumbers for that work and his original prices were right in line with most of them. I'm really not sure what happened there, but I didn't like how it happened. I felt like all of this could have been avoided with a phone call because I would have probably been OK with just having his guy go ahead and do most of the plumbing work. Because he was doing pretty basic work, I wasn't too worried about pipes bursting or nasty back-flow, but I didn't like that I was being billed for work that I had no say in, from a guy that was referred to as ?the plumber? and would be expected to pay whatever this guy wanted to receive.

The agreement I had with Rene was to pay him per hour, for two workers. Truth be told that often it was the case that there were the two main workers, and one or two other workers also in the house at no additional charge. So again, I wouldn't have given him a hard time on this plumbing stuff because I appreciated the hard work and the additional help that showed up, I just didn't like how it unfolded. I don't think it was intentional, just bad communication.

In the end, I still got what I believe to be a really good deal on a handsome new kitchen and bathroom. The work they did, rough and finish, was professional. Again I'll say, the crew worked really hard and I was really impressed by that. If they didn't mind my detail-oriented nature too much, I look forward to having them work here again and I have already recommend his team"

"The visit went well and the service person was on time.  The first diagnosis was not correct and a defroster part was ordered and replaced.  The problem was not corrected.  A second visit was required and the action taken at that time corrected the blocked drain hose problem.  We have not had any problem since the 2d repair visit.

"To be clear on what I am being asked to rate .... Choice is asking me to rate the repair service man that showed up to repair - NOT their warranty service itself. These are two different things. I rate the repair man - high. The warranty company itself - ONE STAR. See they advertise this great warrantee .... but when you go to use it ..... in all the fine print .... they write themselves out of responsibility to take care of your problem so BE CAUTIOUS when choosing to purchase this warranty. I have had this warranty for two years ... never needed it. Then my microwave goes on the blink. Took three weeks to get a repair man to my house and a resolution which ended in basically a non- resolution. They opted to replace vs. repair .... somehow figured my microwave was 10 years old - which is a joke and in the wind gave me $191 to replace it - and this is after I paid the $65 service fee. This is for replacement and installation. See in item #9 of the contract it states they ARE responsible for ALL components (excepts handles, door glass, etc). BUT ... then in #16 it states they do not have to repair ... they can opt to offer replacement costs (THEIR supposed costs - which is NOT retail) so for my $319 microwave +$110 installation it is costing me to replace - They OPTED to give me $$191 minus my $65 service fee ..... which ends up being $123. This is a bunch of ********. They know it and I know it. SO .... if this is how they do on a microwave .... I can ONLY imaging what they will do on something big. So ..... I have zero confidence in this company at this point and as soon as this claim settles out - I receive my whopping $191 ... I plan to cancel this warranty and go with another home warranty company. Maybe they will appreciate my business because this one sure did not. They proved that on this small claim. I do t trust them to risk it if there happened to be a larger claim. Horrible is all I can say."

FAQs for appliance (microwave oven) installation and replacement projects in Nanjemoy, MD

A pro can finish the job in one to three hours. Countertop models are the quickest, but built-in, drawer, and over-the-range units take longer because the installer may need to run a new outlet, modify cabinets, or add venting. Any add-ons can push the timeline closer to the three-hour mark. Hiring a licensed installer ensures the wiring is safe and the appliance operates at peak performance.

Because an over-the-range microwave doubles as a range hood, it needs proper venting. You can opt for a recirculating model that filters and recirculates air back into the kitchen, or a ducted unit that exhausts outdoors. Are you unsure which route suits your cooking style? Ask your installer for guidance before making a purchase.

Only microwaves labeled “over-the-range” have the built-in venting and lighting that’s necessary for safe, code-compliant use above a stove. Countertop models don’t have those safeguards. Before you swipe your card, have a licensed microwave installer confirm you’re choosing the right unit for the space and ensure compliance with local codes.

It’s best not to install a countertop microwave in your cabinets. Countertop models aren’t designed for use in an enclosed cabinet, and blocking those vents can trap moisture or even create a fire hazard. A built-in or drawer microwave is designed for tight spaces. Run your plans by an installer to make sure you’re buying the right style for the spot.

You don’t need an electrician if the outlet already meets the microwave’s power needs and sits in the right spot. In that case, you’re good to go ahead with the installation. If the outlet is undersized, outdated, or too far away, hire a licensed electrician to install a new one and ensure everything is code-compliant.

With routine care, most microwaves last between five and 10 years. To help them reach their maximum lifespan, wipe up spills immediately, wash the grease filter periodically, avoid using metal dishware, and close the door gently. Those simple habits reduce malfunctions and keep the appliance running smoothly for the long haul.
