"When our home inspector found improper and potentially dangerous situation in our crawl space and attic, he recommended Eddie and his team and I'm glad he did.  These guys are great.  They showed up every day, on time, and stayed on the job until it was completed.  Our once creaky and shaky wood floors and now solid and our sagging roof now has the support it was lacking.  Eddie's guys were extremely professional and not only cleaned up their mess when they were done, but cleaned out the junk the previous owner had left under the house!!  We can see and feel the difference in our house and are grateful to Floors Sag or Shake for an excellent job!
**At the end of the job, I noticed a spot near our back door where the wood floor was sagging between two floor joists.  Even though this had nothing to do with the original job, Eddie offered to come back the following week to fix it for us at no cost!!  Now THAT'S someone who really cares about the people he does business for.  Thanks, Eddie!

"They did a good job and kept me in the loop through the entire job. They also provide pictures before, during and after the job was completed. I asked the renter did the company do a good job on repairing the floor in the bedroom and renter stated the company did a good job on the floor and the dryer. They even worked on the front door. I will be hiring them to do future work."

Doors questions, answered by experts

Steel doors have a few primary disadvantages. They’re hard to customize since they can’t be cut to fit an opening; they’re cumbersome and thus difficult to install on your own; and they don’t have the same aesthetic appeal as wood doors. Finally, while they’re highly durable and secure, they are susceptible to dents, scratches, and rusting.

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.

An interior French door should last you anywhere between 30 and 50 years, while an exterior French door unit will last around 15 to 30 years on average. Exactly how long your French doors last depends on the quality of the materials you choose, with vinyl doors lasting far less time than fiberglass, metal, and clad-wood doors. Upgrading to shatterproof glass can also improve the lifespan of exterior French doors.

For most doors, you can use a 1-inch chisel to create the mortise for the strike plate. In addition, you can use a 3/4-inch chisel for more refined cuts and to clean up the edges of your mortise. The smaller tool is handy when squaring off the edges around the hole for your latch.

A door sill is the horizontal part of the door frame at the bottom, while a door jamb consists of the vertical parts of the frame on either side. The door sill serves as a threshold, sealing the bottom of the door, while the door jamb provides structural support and houses the hinges and latch. Both are essential components of a door frame, with the door sill acting as a transition point and the door jamb providing stability and functionality.
