"We were very happy with his work. They removed and old door bell and replaced it. The gentle man that came out worked very efficiently, and very good natured with the toddler as she liked to watch what was going on. The total time with all the jobs done was about 10 - 12 hours of work."

"I'm doing Brian a disservice by being able to select only one type of service and specific project. He STARTED by repairing a section of wall and plaster where the kitchen soffit hat been. It was flawlessly blended in when he was done. Shortly afterwards I had to relocate out of state and we depended on Brian to do a number of small repairs around the property to get it ready to sell. These included repairing siding, a fence section, interior door trim and others. With us out of the house entirely, Brian did the work extremely well, his prices are reasonable, and he is honest and dependable. I couldn't ask for more! I just wish I could get him to open a branch down here in Georgia."

"I could not be happier with the final product! The first pic is the old bathroom from the 60s when the house was built. The rest are the final rebuild and it looks great. I would highly recommend VMK Remodeling for any project that you might have. I am also going to get a bid on redoing the deck on the back of the house as Vince's company does decks as well! Thanks to his great crew as well, great people to work with."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Sometimes, these two terms are used interchangeably, but they are separate parts of a door, and each serves a different function. The sill helps ensure the doorframe is secure, and the threshold helps protect the sill and direct water away from the door to prevent leaks.

Many doors can be cut to size, but it depends on the door material. Solid wood doors are relatively easy to trim to a specific size, while hollow core and metal doors are trickier and can usually only be shaved down a little before you risk damaging them. If your door needs a lot of adjustment, it's best to order a custom size or have a pro do the resizing to make sure it holds up over time.

Swapping out old patio doors for something new can boost your home’s value. Fresh doors make your home look more modern and polished, add tons of natural light, and create a smoother connection between indoor and outdoor spaces. Buyers love features that make a home feel open, stylish, and efficient, especially when updated doors come with better energy efficiency and security. High-end options like French doors can also bump the appeal even more, making your home stand out in a competitive market.

Adding a doggie door can allow a burglar access to knobs and locks on your door. If your pet door doesn’t come with an alarm, you can add a weight sensor alarm that will trip if anything heavier than your pet enters through it. Adding a motion sensor light to the room your pet door is in can also help deter burglars.

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.
