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.

"I called and left a message on Sunday about needing someone Monday. They called me back Mon morning and came in the afternoon quoting a visit price of $60 and would quote further work after examination. The plumber came at the beginning of the estimated time period and gave us a quote to install the faucet we had bought and replace both valves (one of which had stopped working) of $350 total. The work was accomplished quickly and professionally."

"Mr Jackson and his son Ray replaced my water heater and stayed late doing so. They did a great job and I am very grateful to them!"

"Miracle Method did a great job resurfacing the floor, the bathtub and surround, and the shower and surround. Everything looks new. They even cleaned our existing shower doors to look new. They removed the toilets to resurface the floor and placed new wax rings when they replaced the toilets. The only negative part of the resurfacing process was the smell of the chemicals they use. We had to open a lot of windows to vent the odor."

"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."

"Patrick was responsive and polite. Upfront with the price and it was very reasonable for the work done. He showed up on time, worked quickly and was pleasant. Gave suggestions as to how to prevent in the future. Would certainly hire him again for other plumbing issues."

"Greg arrived within the time window originally communicated. Upon arrival he introduced himself. He was able to quickly identify the problem and then fix it. He had all required tools, ladder and pipe on his truck. He was very kind, friendly and professional. He showed us the faulty pipe, cleaned the area up and the cost was inline with our expectations. A very positive experience."

"Exterior wood on a bay window and trim around a sliding glass door needed to be replaced as it was rotten in a few places. I decided to have the wood replaced with PVC to avoid rot in the future. In addition, I needed a sliding glass door screen door to have the screen replaced. Dave Lawson from M&L came out initially to understand the work and give me the costs associated with a handyman and the painting. He called a day later to agree to a scheduled date to perform the work. Dave and the handyman arrived as scheduled and went back over the work and began. All the work was performed as expected. The only issue was the screen door replacement as one of the rollers was broken. Since he had already replaced the screen I agreed to use it and it was placed back in the door. My choice. Following the cleanup, Dave showed me the bill which came close to what I had originally expected. Overall I am completely satisfied with the work and cost."
