Our Story

Grimmett Contracting is a Veteran-owned general contracting business serving Derwood, MD, and the surrounding DC area.

After serving honorably in the Marine Corps and Gulf War, Dexter built his career through framing, renovations, and finishing work across multiple states before settling in Maryland and obtaining his MHIC license. Frustrated by contractors who prioritized speed over lasting quality, he started his own business to ensure every job is done right—treating each home as if it were his own. Specializing in kitchen and bathroom renovations, Grimmett Contracting handles everything from countertop installation to plumbing inspections, completing all work in-house without subcontractors. This approach guarantees consistent quality, safety, and clear communication for Derwood homeowners seeking reliable home improvements.

Question Answers

What should I expect during a plumbing inspection in my Derwood home?

Our plumbing inspections in Derwood are thorough and tailored to common local issues like water heater sediment buildup and old pipe leaks. We check all visible pipes, fixtures, and water heaters for signs of wear, corrosion, or sediment accumulation that can reduce efficiency. For older homes in the area, we pay special attention to pipe joints and connections where leaks often develop. After the inspection, we provide a clear report with recommendations, prioritizing any urgent repairs to prevent water damage. Since we handle all work ourselves, you can trust consistent, careful attention to detail.

Do you handle countertop installation as part of kitchen renovations?

Yes, countertop installation is a core service we offer for kitchen renovations in Derwood. With over 30 years of general contracting experience, we manage the entire process—from precise measurements and material selection to secure installation and finishing. We ensure countertops are properly leveled, sealed, and integrated with cabinetry and plumbing fixtures. Because we don't use subcontractors, you get direct oversight from our experienced team, guaranteeing quality that lasts. We treat each installation as if it were in our own home, focusing on durability and functionality for your daily use.

How do you address water heater sediment problems common in Derwood?

Water heater sediment is a frequent issue in Derwood due to local water mineral content. During plumbing inspections or service calls, we assess sediment buildup by checking water pressure, temperature consistency, and heater efficiency. If needed, we safely flush the tank to remove sediment, which can extend the heater's lifespan and improve performance. For persistent problems, we may recommend installing a water softener or periodic maintenance plans. Our Veteran-owned team prioritizes clear explanations and practical solutions to help Derwood residents maintain reliable hot water systems.
