Mustang Home Services was founded on a lifetime of service, hard work, and earning trust the right way.\nAfter 27 years in the United States Navy, our founder retired as a Chief Warrant Officer, having worked his way up from the most junior enlisted rank. That journey shaped everything Mustang Home Services stands for—discipline, accountability, and respect for the people you serve. Nothing was handed over; every milestone was earned through consistency, leadership, and getting the job done right.\nThe name Mustang is a nod to that path. In the Navy, a Mustang is someone who rises through the enlisted ranks and earns a commission—someone who understands the work at every level and leads by example. That same mindset drives how we serve our customers today: hands‑on, knowledgeable, and committed to excellence without shortcuts.\nAfter spending most of a military career moving from duty station to duty station, we made the decision to finally put down roots and call Virginia Beach home.

"Repairer came very soon after called, was quite professional in his analysis of the problem. He gave us the information we needed to determine that the repair was too costly.  He offered to apply the cost of the visit toward installation of the dishwasher we would buy.  We planned to use that, but the new vendor offered installation at a lower price.  We plan  to use this business when we need appliance repair in the future.

"The gentleman from Rescue was very professional. He was thorough and explained step by step what and where the problems were with each appliance. In our case, it was the refrigerator and stove. His price was very reasonable and fair. We will definitely telephone him first, if we have need for another appliance repair. We highly recommend him."

"They were very responsive and we scheduled the appointment for replacement very quickly. The installation went pretty well, though we had to have them come out one more time to make some corrections. The unit works great!"

FAQs for appliance (microwave oven) installation and replacement projects in Portsmouth, VA

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.
