"If you need a door repaired, hire Dexter. He was absolutely professional from start to finish, incredibly humble, and his pricing was more than fair. He diagnosed the issue quickly and fixed it right the first time without trying to upsell me on anything unnecessary. Honest, high-quality work is hard to come by—I will definitely be calling him again if I need anything else."

"Bobby Nesbitt is the owner of newlife handyman services. He was recommended by a friend a few years ago, and we use him for all types of projects. He has repaired and replaced kitchen cabinets, put in drywall, and repaired/renovated my front porch recently. His work is excellent, clean and durable. He is good-natured and did mind my young sons watching him work and ask questions. We have asked him to help us with a larger project in the coming months."

"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!"

"Not the greatest results - I have used this company before and been very pleased. They were pricey, but the quality of the work was worth it. This was not the case this last time. The technician cracked the door jamb in two places while replacing the door, left paint splatters on the floor and on the side of the door which was not supposed to be painted and messed up the handset on the door. He did repair most of these issues (the paint splatters I cleaned up myself with paint thinner), but since he worked by the hour I ended up paying for that too."

"We contracted with Vazquez and Son to paint an apartment unit and complete a list of repairs and other items after a tenant move-out.  We have to agree with other Angie’s List reviewers that their costs seemed a bit high particularly when we realized the quote was for labor only. However, because of the positive Angie’s List comments and because they were able to begin within a few days, we proceeded.  We did receive an Angie’s List discount.  Luis and his crew were very friendly, responsive, punctual, polite, and they completed the work ahead of schedule.  Overall, we were satisfied with their work."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can replace a door frame without replacing the door, provided the existing door is in good condition and the new frame is the correct size. To do this, you will need to remove the door and then rehang it after the new frame is installed. When purchasing materials, be sure to buy a door frame assembly kit rather than a prehung door, as a prehung unit includes a new door. However, if your current door has significant damage or wear, it may be a good opportunity to replace it at the same time, since you have to remove it anyway.

A few signs that you need a new door frame include: The door no longer fits properly in its frame and sticks or scrapes. You notice cracks, holes, or rotting. You feel a draft coming from around the door when it’s closed. You find yourself frequently needing to make repairs.

Most of the time, constant use will loosen the mounting screws on your doorknob and cause it to loosen away from the door. While this can be annoying, the solution is quick and simple. If you have exposed mounting bolts, simply tighten them with a screwdriver, being sure not to overtighten and bind up the turning mechanism. For doorknobs without visible mounting bolts, first pry off the rose mounting plate or unscrew the set screw before removing it.

Your door sweep should be replaced every three years or sooner if it’s in poor condition. Signs it’s time to replace your sweep include visible damage or an increase in cold drafts. This is also a good time to redo the weather stripping on the door, which should also be replaced every three years.

If you recently tightened screws to fix a loose doorknob, the issue is likely that you over tightened them. Doing so binds the turning mechanism, which will prevent your doorknob from bouncing back when you turn and release it. To fix this problem, loosen the mounting screws just a little so that the knob bounces back as expected but doesn’t wiggle. If this doesn’t fix the issue, try loosening the knob, centering it in the boring hole, and then tightening it.
