"Jeff was very professional, respectful of our home and always showed up on time. He did beautiful work and provided creative insight to our ideas. Jeff did the entire job himself, from demo to the final touches. Thank you Jeff! We are extremely happy with our newly remodeled master bath and guest bath!"

"I needed to replace hinges to make my kitchen door self-closing. Jose showed up on time, and clearly explained what was involved in installing the new hinges (including how the tension on the hinges would alter how fast/slow the door closed). He did an excellent job and the door now works as it's supposed to."

"Kyle Beym is a very calming sort of guy. He and I spoke several times before I hired him and I was very clear that I wanted to purchase the materials and kind of act as my own project manager. Kyle was very understanding and after getting two other bids, I chose him based on my conversations with Kyle and the ratings and comments here. Kyle brought in two of his men, Arturo and Felipe. I couldn't have asked for two better professionals than these two men. They were punctual, professional, accommodating put in ten hour days. Their work was outstanding. I supplied all of the materials and they installed the flooring, tiled the shower and tub in the master bath, with all new porcelain and pebble flooring in the shower, and mosaic glass inserts in the walls, replacing faucets, closing up a wall and put in a new opening, installing and painting a barn door, painting the walls and ceiling, and installing LED recessed lights. In my son's room they had to tear out the entire carpet which he ruined and they installed porcelain flooring that looks like wood. Beautiful! In his bathroom they replaced some broken tile, installed a new shower door, replaced the faucets for his shower and tub and moved the shower faucet up two and a half feet from its original low position."

Doors FAQs, answered by experts

If you’re installing a pocket door into an existing door opening, the new space will need to be twice the width of the existing door, plus an inch. You'll need to double that number if you’re adding dual pocket doors.

Longer screws can make a door more secure, but this isn’t a foolproof method for security. Replacing the short screws in your door’s strike plate with screws that are 3 inches long will make it much more difficult for an intruder to force entry by kicking down the door, but it won’t do anything to stop them from picking the lock. 

You should generally cut between 1/8-inch and 1 inch when planing a door. If you cut off more than that, you risk damaging the door. Planing too much from the bottom of your door can cause noticeable gaps, so it’s always better to start with as thin of a section as possible and work in thin layers until your door no longer sticks.

A door swells up when there’s a lot of moisture in the air. Wood doors are porous, and the elements can cause them to expand with humidity and contract with dry air. Prevent swelling by coating the door in weather-resistant paint, which creates a barrier to seal out moisture. Otherwise, go with a water-repellent finish after the fact. On the plus side, this problem will go away once the weather changes.

Yes, it’s possible a burglar can get through a deadbolt. Some types of deadbolts are harder for an intruder to get through, though. For example, a single-cylinder lock only requires breaking a window nearby and simply turning it. While other locks, such as a double-cylinder lock, may offer greater protection and make it harder for an intruder, no deadbolt is 100 percent effective.
