Smith Remodeling Services, Inc. is a family business, owned and managed by Mark and Lisa Smith. Both Mark and Lisa are Bradenton/Sarasota natives with over 25 years' experience. Our customers continue to refer Smith Remodeling because they consistently provide excellent customer service and quality craftsmanship at reasonable rates. Estimates for work are always free of cost, and potential customers will always work with Mark or Lisa directly. Smith Remodeling is licensed and insured for interior renovations including: tile installation, cabinetry installation, carpentry, painting, drywall repairs and installation, door installation, flooring, general repairs. When other services such as plumbing and electrical are required, the proper licensed contractors will perform those services and pull the necessary permits.

"This was our second project with Smith Remodeling (see review of 3/22/20) – this time a complete kitchen and bath renovation. Once again, we got superior workmanship, quality materials and great communication at a fair price. We were away for the summer, but we knew from our first experience we could invite Lisa, Mark and their crew into our home with confidence. Smith uses only its own crew, no subs, and has a great network of suppliers for cabinets, tile, countertops, fixtures, shower enclosures and whatever else you need. Lisa coordinates and schedules them all. Once work began, Lisa was in steady communication via text, email or phone. She sent photos almost every day. If she had a question, she consulted us before proceeding. If we had questions, she answered them promptly. The job was done in less than a month. The results were beautiful. This small company is in high demand with good reason."

We are a locally owned and operated company that values honesty and integrity in all aspects of our business. Our major focus is on the quality our work and producing outstanding results. We are committed to creating a level of value unmatched by any of our competitors. We look forward to building lasting relationships with our clients and guarantee your satisfaction!

"Frank Smith missed our appointment to fix blocked drains. He did not reply to numerous voicemails or texts. Finally he contacted me saying he forgot. When he did visit, he did not bring the right tools but spent 2 hours to show he was trying to fix the drains . He kept asking me if I had one part or another that he could borrow. Why would I have spare parts that a plumber uses? Without the right tools the visit was useless except he charged me for his time. As he did not have the right tools the first visit, he told me he had to come back the next day. The 2nd visit he brought a helper but still did not bring the right tools so would need to come back a 3rd time with the right tools. For 9 hours of his time @ $100 per hour and 2 helpers that werent' needed at $20 an hour, according to him, he ended up charging me $1,600. The $100 per hour is not unreasonable but padding out time and wasting time and visits because unprepared is ********. This man is an unprofessional con man."

"Andy was very professional, arrived at designated time and was professional . First company to come out and try to unclog my drain said that there was roots in my sewer system and quoted me a very hefty sum. Andy came over within 5 minutes he already found my problem and it infact was not roots but flushable wipes that my toddler had flushed …. He unclogged it right then and there and I’ve had no problems since 10/10 would recommend again and again"

Garbage Disposal Repair questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t need a garbage disposal for a dishwasher. A dishwasher will work without a garbage disposal. However, the two appliances pair well and are often installed together. It is rare to see a home with a dishwasher that doesn’t have a garbage disposal, but that doesn’t mean it's not possible. Each appliance serves its own purpose. 

When a dishwasher discharges its wastewater, it uses a pump to quickly move a lot of water. If anything in the drain line or the garbage disposal impedes the high volume of water, it will back up into the sink through the drain or the garbage disposal. Following regular dishwasher maintenance tips like clearing clogs, keeping them cleared, and occasionally running the disposal will eliminate the problem.

If your garbage disposal powers up and you can hear it hum, but the arms inside aren’t moving, the problem might be a stubborn clog, a build-up of grease, or a jam of the impeller plate. To troubleshoot these, ensure your unit is off and disconnected from its power source before checking inside the drain or attempting to manually rotate the impeller arms or plate from the underside of the unit. A hex wrench can help.

Your garbage disposal is not draining because it might have a clog due to food waste, a foreign object, grease, oil, fat, or it may have a broken motor. When water doesn't flush out of the disposal, that's a key sign that your disposal has a clog or needs repair. 

You may be able to install a garbage disposal on your own, especially if you're handy or have some experience with plumbing. However, if you have any concerns or want to make absolutely sure that the connections are installed correctly, you may be better off hiring a local garbage disposal installer to do the job.
