"The guy who came was very nice, professional, and fixed the disposer without us needing a new one (so was honest and didn't try to say we need a replacement). He looked at some other things but they were not under his preview; however, gave us advice where to go to get them taken care of."

"Excellence, perfection, and quality best describes KBR Kitchen and Bath of Bethesda, Maryland. After meeting with four top (A) rated companies from Angie’s List for kitchen estimates, KBR was the only company to provide an actual (kitchen design –in 3D format), while other companies submitted worded descriptions devoid of any creatively or imagination. KBR sent kitchen designer Catherine Harvey to my home, who immediately offered functional design ideals, sketches, material guidance, and budgetary advice to support the best design. Mrs. Harvey’s knowledge of construction and materials was beyond impressive, to include her artistic design execution. As a result, Mrs. Harvey submitted a 4-page kitchen design estimate complete with a 3D design illustration, pricing, and additional sketches. The type of professional estimate you would expect after watching DYI television or the Home and Garden channel (awesome). I immediately hired KBR of Bethesda to renovate my kitchen. After accepting the estimate, I met with Mrs. Harvey at KBR Bethesda headquarters to pick out my materials and to sign the finial contract for construction. Mrs. Harvey presented four designs of top quality material within my budget (see photos) with additional material options. Next, I selected my design and then read over the contract for construction. The contract was very well written, which covered start and completion dates, a detailed construction outline, materials, and flexible dates for unforeseen emergencies. What is more, Mrs. Harvey explained my next meeting would be with project manager Adam Salniturk, who would conduct a walkthrough of the kitchen and introduce me to the construction tech. Project manager Adam Salniturk conducted a comprehensive walkthrough of my kitchen and the construction process, while introducing me to my construction tech Carlos Chicas. Mr. Chicas provided construction updates each day explaining his work and progress. As a result, the kitchen project finished ahead of schedule by 1 and a half weeks (outstanding job). KBR of Bethesda surrounds themselves with a very eclectic group of talented people. People that take pride in their work and care about customer needs. Mrs. Harvey proved to be an exceptional designer, Mr. Salniturk was a firsthand manager, and Mr. Chicas exceptionally talented in every area of construction; each demonstrated great teamwork, pride and coordination. Talent like this is hard to find in today’s home improvement climate. If you want to do good business, I highly recommend KBR Kitchen and Bath of Bethesda. (I’m hiring them back to renovate my master bathroom next year)"

"As my husband and I were spring cleaning and bringing things into the attic when we noticed the installation had falling on nearly half of our roof and was wet to the touch. My husband did the initial inspection and noticed that mold, mildew and a huge leak had take over the wood and was exposed to the outside of the house. 
I am a natural researcher - called several friends for recommendations, shopped around on DIY websites to see if this was something we could manage ourselves, and then stumbled on the Lumbee website. Lumbee was about my 5th call, the have a really nice customer service and I was directed directly to a technician that came out the next day to inspect our roof. 
Darren came the next day, he was very knowledgeable on the scope of work, the products we needed to use, and was helpful in identifying what the immediate need was . Some people would have told me to replace my whole roof but he totally must have been reading my mind! 
The repairs were made next day and it only took him a total of 4 hours ! He even replace my cracked window in my kitchen that my son threw a rock in months ago ! I highly recommend Darren and his team. This was a great service and was taken care of right away."

Install Garbage Disposal questions, answered by experts

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.

Never put glass in the garbage disposal. It can damage your disposal or eject shards of glass out of the disposal and cause injury. If you get broken glass in your garbage disposal, turn it off and cut the power from the breaker, use a tool like pliers or tongs to remove the glass, and use a wet-dry vacuum to remove the remaining glass pieces. If you can’t access the disposal safely, call a garbage disposal repair pro.

Garbage disposals can be considered bad for the environment due to their electricity usage, but good for the environment because they reduce the food waste sent to landfills. If everyone used a garbage disposal, it would tax the wastewater treatment facilities in that region, but if we had to choose one of the options, we’d say they are a net positive on the environment when used correctly. 

If you cook a lot or have a larger household, a garbage disposal can be worth it, since it streamlines your kitchen duties and helps to keep food waste out of landfills. It helps to know the cost of garbage disposal installation before you make your decision. The average price is about $400, but you can expect to pay more for higher-end models or if you hire a pro to do the job for you.

The main issue with garbage disposals is clogging. This can mean a clogging of the pipes that expel the food along with water, or a clogging of the mechanical parts themselves. The problem lies in the solution because you can’t easily see clogs if they’re inside the system, and reaching in to dislodge stuck items is a risky proposal. Call a pro and ask what they would do, but if you can’t see the clog easily, and running the unit won’t free it, you need to let a professional handle the fix.
