"We needed the window trim, made of wood, on our 2nd story home replaced, patched, caulked & painted. The two arched windows needed the wood replaced & the others repaired. The windows look better than the original one done. The guys did an excellent job, very professional & cleaned up afterwards too. Will definitely use again for other projects around our home."
"Victor was professional. He made certain the weather stripping fit the door and that I was satisfied with the results. I will hire him for my future projects."
"Morgan called in advance of appointment to inform us that he was on his way. He removed the sliding glass door and screen and replaced, lubed and adjusted the door hardware for proper closure. Door work fantastic (like new) again. Great service for the cost and would highly recommend him for any door, window and doggy door installation or repair."
"We were having problems with our double front entry doors and a sliding screen door. Jose took a look at the front door, analyzed the problem and had it working perfectly in just a few minutes. He did the same with the sliding screen door. Very quick, polite an professional, and reasonably priced. We're planning to use him for other repairs."
"Super happy with service from both Angi’s list and the handyman. He was professional, did a great job installing a dog door and was tidy cleaning up after. Recommend and will use again in the future"
"I needed a door, framework, and drywall for my room. It was done very well! You can barely tell there was a hole in the wall. The communication and patience was wonderful and he even gave us recommendations for other work we need done in the home. I loved working with them and will come back if needed."
"I moved into a condo in Rancho Cucamonga and the landlord didn't fix the place up after the previous tenant moved. I hired Joel to help clean the place up. He patched nail holes, did touch-up paint, as well as a variety of minor repairs (ex: the previous tenant had installed the screen door to the back patio upside down and backwards). Joel was able to take care of everything. He did the work quickly, cleanly and professionally. The place looks great now. I highly recommend Joel for repairs, contract work, and home advising."
"Showcase Window and Door installed 3 sliding glass doors and 23 windows in our 2 story home in Orange County, CA. Mark Britton advised us on window and installation types (retrofit and new build) and we went with a combination of both. His measurements were spot on and his crew was clean, efficient and professional every step of the way. Highly recommend Showcase Window & Door to get it done right!"
A door sill is the bottom portion of your door frame, while a threshold is the transition piece that separates the two types of flooring between rooms, or serves as the transition between the interior and exterior on an exterior door. The threshold sits on top of the door sill. A kick plate is a protective plate that sits against the face of a door to prevent damage to the door from feet and shoes. You’ll usually only find kick plates on exterior doors, while every door has a door sill, and most exterior and interior doors have a threshold.
It’s certainly easier to paint a door while it’s still on its hinges, but you may get better results if you remove it from the hinges. Painting a door off the hinges allows you to work on it horizontally, making prep work easier, reducing drips, and allowing undisturbed drying time.
No, a storm door should not replace a regular door. It lacks the durability, insulation, and security of a proper exterior door. Most storm doors have lightweight frames and minimal locking hardware, and they aren’t meant to stand alone. While they work well as a backup to your main entry door, relying on one as your only barrier would likely lead to drafts, higher energy bills, and safety concerns.
Yes, you can clean door hinges with vinegar. The cleaner your door hinges are, the less likely they are to cause that annoying squeaking sound. Simply fill a container with equal parts water and vinegar, dip a microfiber cloth in the mixture, and use it to clean the hinges. You can do this while the hinges are connected or remove them, and wash them piece by piece.
The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.
There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.
Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
