"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."

"Our house needed a number of repairs including replacing exterior wood stairs and replacing a water main shut off valve. Bobby did an excellent job on all projects and produced high quality work. We intend to hire him again for future projects."

"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."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

The time required for door installation or repair varies. A typical door installation takes between 2 to 6 hours per door. Specifically, installing an interior door can take a professional 1 to 2 hours, while a standard new door installation may take 3 to 4 hours. Repairs are generally quicker, taking 1 to 3 hours depending on the complexity. The process can take significantly longer, potentially a full day, if a new wall opening needs to be created or if the existing frame requires modification.

The cost to remove an existing exterior door and close up the opening ranges from about $2,000 to $2,600. This cost includes removing the door and building a wall in the opening, and then installing siding and paint to finish it off. Consult a door installer with the specific details and measurements of your exterior door to get an accurate estimate of the project price.

Removing a pocket door essentially involves building a new wall, which costs between $1,000 and $3,200. Depending on your unique project, you might need to add waste removal, plumbing, mold remediation, or electrical services, which can further drive up costs.

Interior door thresholds are usually attached using finish nails, and some contractors will also use construction adhesive under the threshold to hold it in place. Exterior door thresholds are more commonly screwed to prevent them from pulling up when people step on the raised edge on the outside of the door. Exterior doors also include caulk sealant on the inside to prevent water and air from seeping through.

The job is relatively simple, but it does require some skill. When planing a door, you run the risk of splintering it if you don't do it correctly. You’ll need to remove the door from the hinges in order to properly plane it, and removing and rehanging a door can be a two-person job. While planing a door is a straightforward repair, you’ll want to ensure it’s done right to avoid damaging your door.
