"Sliding door unable to move for years. Dexter was the only technician that came and was able to repair. He fixed some damaged wood. Change rollers and made a few adjustments. The door felt like new. Very professional, communicated thoroughly and got the job done. We have some window work to do and we will be having him back to do the work. I can’t forgot to mention his prices are better than every company I’ve ever had out to my home"

"After my husband and I had worked for hours trying to repair our boxsprings we broke down and called for help. Bobby Nesbitt was the man who saved us from another horrible night sleep. We called him at 5:00, hoping to have him put us on his schedule but we were amazed he said he could come that night at 8:00. He took one look and figured it all out. He was fast, knowledgeable and couldn't have been nicer. We will call him again when we get our list together. I've already told my friends about the wonderful service he gave us. Thanks Bobby you're the best."

"I very much recommend this contractor! Answers fast, gives extremely fair prices, gives fast appointments AND the show up on time! They are very polite and nice. They also clean up the station after they’re done! I find them reliable, quality work and fairly priced. They also work as long as they need to. For our house they: Fixed the window frames outside because the mortar was broken or eroded and when it stormed outside, it rained inside our house. They changed rotten wood, painted it, cemented places in the brick wall that needed it, put mortar/caulk and sealed 4 windows from the outside. The other project was putting bifold closet doors which included cutting them to size, installing the hardware, and painting them. This was the first time I’ve had to hire someone to fix things around the house that I couldn’t, and I was really nervous. I’m grateful I found Chapin Handyman LLC through Angie’s list! Oh! And they are insured and bonded, too!"

"First person came by door-to-door to see if we wanted an estimate. Our house is 2000 sq feet (3/4 siding, 1/4 brick). Second person came to give us the estimate. It took at least three hours. The first estimate was more than $19K, but if we bought it right then, it would be $12K. We finally settled on $13.5K: $12K for siding and $1.5K for window and door caps. We were told that even though our window capping looked good, it would probably tear when they took off the old siding. We were told over and over what a great company it was. We were told everything that had aluminum would be replaced with vinyl, the new siding would be "practically seamless," and we were getting a great deal. A few days later someone visited us again. We went over the project and picked out the color. On the day of the installation, the crew started removing the old siding. Another "quality assurance" person showed up at noon to go over any questions. He again told us what a great deal we got. He looked around and went up on the roof. He also noticed that there was aluminum covering on front half of the rake on north side of the house but not the back half. He said there was an issue behind the gutters at the top of the house, that moisture could get between the gutters and the house, and that the job was really going to look incomplete without new coverings for all the rake. He gave us an estimate: normally it would be $3500, but if we bought it right then, it would be $2000. We agreed to pay for covering the rake. The window wrap did not rip when the aluminum was removed. The new window wrap looks exactly like what was already on the house. There are a lot of seams; even the smallest lengths have seams. Once the job was wrapping up, the last person showed up. We told him there were a lot of seams. He said they wouldn't be noticable further away from the house. There are a couple of places where the pieces behind the gutter were not cut correctly. I expect they will be able to fix this. Bottom line? We're glad we got new siding, but with all the high-pressure sales tactics and inconsistencies in presentation, we still feel like we got ripped off."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

Most repairs take 2-6 hours, though extensive damage, such as frame realignment or security system integration, may take an entire day.

Over time, the weight of a door and wear on the hinge itself can cause hinge pins to come loose and fall out. It’s a good idea to periodically check your hinges to ensure the pins are fully in place. If your hinge pins have become loose, gently tap them back into place with a hammer or replace the pin.

Most exterior door knobs have their screws on the interior facing side to prevent against potential theft. If you’re locked out of your house and are trying to remove the door knob from the outside, it’s best to call a locksmith who has the appropriate tools. 

You have a few options when trying to fix a misaligned door hinge. Tighten the hinge screws first. If you see the door is sagging, then you might need longer screws in the door hinges. It’s also possible the door needs a readjustment, so try loosening the hinges and adjusting the door, then retightening them once you have the door in place. If none of these solutions help, it may be time to replace the door hinges altogether.

Exposure to moisture leads to door jamb rot. Water softens the wood, leaving it susceptible to damage from even slight bumps. Over time, the excess moisture allows mold, mildew, and fungus to grow. These organisms feed on the wood, leaving behind a soft, splintering door jamb. The breakdown will continue if the wood isn’t repaired or replaced. Outdoor wood jambs are the most prone to rotting, but bathrooms and doorways in a humid climate can sustain this damage.
