A sleek over-the-range or built-in microwave instantly modernizes any kitchen, but only when it is installed correctly. Homeowners who type “microwave installed” are looking for fast, safe, and affordable help, not DIY headaches. CountBricks answers that intent with AI-powered estimating, licensed residential crews, and one streamlined experience from quote to invoice.
• Cabinet damage from incorrect template measurements
• Undersized circuit loads that trip breakers or create fire hazards
• Missing vent connections that trap grease and moisture
• Voided manufacturer warranties when clearances are ignored
CountBricks eliminates these risks by combining professional trade labor with real-time material databases and strict code compliance checks built into our estimating engine.
1. Speak naturally with our voice assistant—describe appliance model, cabinet height, existing venting, and electrical location.
2. CountBricks AI converts your words into a line-item scope: demolition, bracing, electrical run, vent hood modification, trim kit, and final haul-away.
3. Regional material pricing and labor rates are applied instantly, creating a transparent cost breakdown that you can review on screen or receive by email.
4. Approve the estimate with a tap, schedule the crew, and receive a professional invoice—all inside CountBricks.com.
• Basic swap with existing vent and outlet: $195–$295
• New dedicated circuit plus vent adaptation: $350–$525
• Custom built-in microwave drawer with cabinet modifications: $650–$900
Because CountBricks updates pricing daily, you never pay inflated allowances or guesswork.
1. Pre-site video call verifies clearances, stud layout, and delivery logistics.
2. Arrival of licensed installer with pre-cut mounting templates and code-approved fasteners.
3. Safe removal of old unit; patching of wall or cabinet surfaces if needed.
4. Installation of bracket, lift-assist, and microwave—always a two-technician lift for safety.
5. Connection of vent duct or conversion kit, then GFCI or dedicated outlet testing.
6. Finish trim, silicone sealing, and 10-point performance checklist.
7. Digital sign-off, automatic warranty registration, and instant invoice via CountBricks.com.

When the Perez family remodeled their 1990s kitchen, they wanted a modern over-the-range microwave installed where an aging vent hood once hung. Using CountBricks voice estimating, their general contractor generated a full scope in under five minutes: hood removal, cabinet notch, 30-inch stainless microwave, new duct connector, GFCI outlet, and touch-up paint. The AI engine priced materials at $242.60 and labor at $275.00, reflecting real-time costs in their Billings, MT market.
On installation day, CountBricks technicians arrived with the bracket pre-drilled according to the blueprint takeoff. Power was shut off, the old hood removed, and studs were located with our tablet-based scope viewer. Within two hours the new microwave was secured, leveled to within 1 ⁄ 32-inch, and venting tested at 300 CFM. The Perez family received a digital warranty card and invoice before the team left the driveway.
