Get matched with top sink installers in Spencerville, MD

Hi, I’m Xavier and I have been working in home improvement and repairs for 20+ years. I have experience in plumbing, electrical, HVAC, carpentry, & handyman task. I love sharing my skills & ideas when needed. I love the reactions of happy clients.

"job done quickly, cleaned up nicely. Received the two estimates (replace kitchen sink faucet and bathroom vanity top). Thought replacing the vanity top was high but will have them back to replace the kitchen sink faucet."

"The job ended up being easier than expected and he accomplished the task in less than an hour without having to tear up my interior wall to get to the pipes. I am very satisfied with the job."

"Tech was 30 minutes late and went to the wrong address but once he arrived the work was done quickly and looks good."

"I think I talked directly to the owner. Porcelite scheduled service within a week. Technician arrived a few minutes early, got the job done, presented the bill and got out of my hair. I didn't even need to move my sink cabinet which is within a couple of inches of the tub."

"James did multiple jobs for me after diagnosing the actual problem. Correcting the issue required james to replace part of an old pipe which could only be accessed through a ceiling. James not only fixed the plumbing issue, he completed the carpentry work and repaired the ceiling. He also replaced my shower floor and the tiles surrounding it. James also replaced faucets on my utility sink. James is exceptionally knowledgeable, professional, and a master of his craft. I highly recommend hiring him for your plumbing needs and wants."

"- Plumber came and snaked the pipe. The water went down fine and he left. - Two days later the tenant said the kitchen sink was backing up again but he did not schedule an appointment because the problem went away relatively quickly. - Three weeks later Tenant sends me a video the kitchen sink being backed up again. Tenant was very clear they were careful to minimize any food that goes down the trash disposal in case it could clog up the pipe. I spoke with Definitive because I felt like I paid to have a problem fixed and the problem was not fixed; I felt some type of credit was in order. The plumber's argument was that 3 weeks had passes and that they couldn't warranty a service. Fair enough, but 3 weeks strike me as awfully short time frame, especially if food was not being thrown in the trash disposal. I googled this situation and it seems its customary and accepted practice that you pay for services rendered regardless of the results. Fair, that's fine. As far as the recurring clogging problem, it appears there are many instances where the snaking can break through the clog but can a) partially break the clog leaving grease and other debris on the sides or b) break the clog but not go down far enough whereby the debris will remain somewhere in the pipe and eventually build back up. Generally this seems to happen with amateurs that aren't thorough enough with the snaking and don't snake down far enough. It's true, my tenants could have stuffed a whole bunch of food down the drain but everything about them so far has been such that I believe them when they say they minimized the amount of food that went down the garbage disposal. To me the lack of thoroughness in the snake job seems more plausible which is why I gave them a D for quality."

"Great! Patrick responded the same day and gave me a quote of $150, as compared to $180 to $375 from other plumbers. He had to snake the pipes twice to clear the clog, but insisted he stick to his original flat rate quote of $150 despite my offering to pay more because he had to snake it twice."

"He was on time did a great job, and incredibly reasonable!"

"Dave was very attentive and kept me updated on arrival times, progress, etc., as I was not home during their working hours. The crew cleaned up each day, and did not leave ladders, cans or drop-cloths on the premises."
