"Very pleased. First, Joseph gave good advice regarding the repairs - an approach I hadn't thought of. Work was done to my satisfaction. He was on time, cleaned up as he went and was very professional and pleasant to work with. Have hired for another job."

"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"

"Excellent experience! Ferny was right on time to give me a fair estimate for some minor work to be done repairing doors, fixing drywall, and painting over it. We promptly agreed to his estimate and he returned just about an hour later to do the job (the timing worked for us). Ferny and Carlos exceeded all of our expectations: the work was flawless and fast, and they left the place sparkling clean. Another issue regarding a leak came up while Ferny was still in the house. Lucky for us, Ferny was willing to consult on the problem and provided a quick fix at no extra charge, along with suggestions on how to avoid the problem in the future. I would absolutely recommend Ferny for your handyman needs, and I'm grateful to have finally found someone to rely on for handyman work in DC."

"We hit Terry with a multitude of tasks. Siding repair, stucco work, garrage trim repair, and even last minute electrical troubleshooting. He met every challenge with ease. Courteous, thorough, and craftsmanship are only a few traits I can use to describe him. We are already planning more work for him!"

"Frankly, I did not like fact that there were two visits. One to look over the work that needed to be done and one to do the work. But having gone through that, I understand why. They don't know what material I have. I need to make that clear that I get it now. They were also able to come and do the estimate on a Saturday. So I did not have to take off work twice. If I had to take off work twice, I probably would have cancelled. We came out and went over all the stuff that I purchased. If I remember correctly, it was labor only. I had bought the wrong kind of spackling or something. He told me that and that was good. I could take it back and get the right kind. He told me what to buy. It was all set up. The day of the work, the guy came and worked the entire time. Very hard worker. He was on time. There was absolutely no complaints. It went very smoothly. It was a big deal for Handyman Services. We knew how much it was going to cost because it was paid. He came out to get a feel for what I wanted done. I could have said I want my whole downstairs refinished. It wasn't that at all. There was no other charges because the work that I wanted done, they were able to do in that allotted time period. If it had gone beyond then they would have charged extra. They made that very clear. It was very up and up. It was very basic handyman stuff. I am technically and mechanically challenged. Basic basic handyman stuff. Fixing things. No painting, nothing like that. After everything was done. I understood. They did awesome work. I should not have judged in the beginning about the two visits. It was a big deal in the beginning for me. There is a reason that it is done this way. I got it. The biggest thing was that they knew what they were doing. I should have shut up. The guy did great work."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

To tighten a doorknob without visible screws, you first need to remove the rose mounting plate, which is a decorative covering that hides the mounting bolts. You might need to loosen a set screw to get this off, but others just pry off. Once you pull it off, release the lever underneath, and your knob and mounting plate should come fully off, revealing the mounting bolts. Tighten these before reassembling.

There aren’t many problems with fire doors except that they slow down or cut off ventilation at the higher rating levels. For this reason, work with a professional to ensure you have adequate ventilation throughout your house or workspace. The sealing around a fire door is meant to allow for a specific amount of ventilation and will need regular inspections to ensure adequate airflow.

While it's likely that a door handle will sag over time, there are some things you can do to maintain your handles and keep them from drooping. Regular maintenance, including cleaning and lubrication, is one place to start. Inspecting the door regularly, at least once or twice a year, to make sure that the connections aren't too tight is another good idea.

The cost of door repair is $235 on average but can range from $50 to $685 or more. Cost factors like the door type, door material, the amount of damage, and your geographic location all play an important role in the project price. 

Exterior doors, like solid wood or steel doors, tend to cost more to repair, ranging from $350 to $1,050 on average. Interior doors tend to be hollow and, therefore, less costly to repair. You can expect an interior door to cost between $350 and $650 to repair.
