"Ken is a skilled professional who is very respectful the homeowner and their property.  His work was very high quality, his price reasonable, and he was easy to work with.  I'm extremely pleased with the work Ken did and have already started my list of future projects.  Ken makes helpful suggestions, always cleans up before he goes home for the day, and is very knowledgeable about the kind of work he does.  I highly recommend Ken!!

My wife and I have used World Painting several times over the last four years in two different houses.  The most recent project was a complete makeover of the outside of our home.  We consulted with the World Painting staff on the design (two tones) and the proper colors to use.  We are very happy with the outcomes; both the appearance and the quality of workmanship.

Doors FAQs, answered by experts

If you have a sticky door in the summer, the culprit is likely humidity. Humidity can cause wooden doors to swell due to the high moisture levels in the air. A quick fix is to open doors throughout your home to improve air circulation and lower the moisture in your air. A longer-term solution is to use dehumidifiers and ceiling fans.

You want plenty of room between your pre-hung door and the framing in your wall to allow for shimming to get the door into the perfect position, so aim for about 1 inch on the top and both sides. That means you should make your rough opening about 1 inch taller and 2 inches wider than your pre-hung door. You’ll then use shims to stabilize and level the door before installing it.

Butterfly hinges are one of the most common types of hinges and you can use them all over your home. Though they’re common on doors, cabinets, and shutters, you can even find them on decor, like jewelry boxes, music boxes, and trunks. Doors may have basic butterfly hinges, while the hinges on cabinets and decor may be more ornate.

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.

A screen door needs at least two hinges, though most have three or four hinges. The amount of hinges depends on the weight and size of the door. The heavier your door, the more hinges it will need for support. Exterior doors, which are sturdier than interior doors, have the most hinges.
