Q: How do you level a door on an uneven floor?

• <div><p>To keep a door level on an uneven surface, use shims or scraps of underlayment to hold the door level while you attach the hinges. Keep in mind that on an uneven surface, the slope of the floor when open may not be the same as when it&rsquo;s shut. Use a level to keep from shimming your door too much or too little while attaching the hinges.</p></div>

Q: How can I fix a door that sticks or doesn't close properly?

• <div><p>Check for alignment issues or swelling due to moisture. A simple hinge adjustment or sanding may rectify the problem.</p></div>

Q: Can I convert a pre-hung door into a Dutch door?

• <div><p>You can convert a pre-hung door into a Dutch door, but it&rsquo;s more of a pain. Pre-hung doors are already set in the frame with the hinges and everything aligned, so once you cut the slab in half, you&rsquo;ll likely need to adjust the hinge placement and maybe even mess with the frame itself. It&rsquo;s doable, but expect some trial and error because it&rsquo;s not a straight-swap situation.</p></div>

Q: What to do if the door frame is rotting?

• <div><p>If the rot is everywhere, you&rsquo;ll likely need a full door frame replacement. However, if the issue is localized, you can remove the rotten wood and focus on repairing the impacted area. Then fill the cavity with a wood filler or epoxy. For larger jobs, fill the cavity with a wood hardener. Next, sand it smooth and repaint or stain the entire area. You may have to apply the stain or paint to the entire frame to ensure the repair blends in.</p></div>

Q: Can you use olive oil on a door hinge?

• <div><p>While applying a small amount of olive oil to a door hinge may not cause problems, regularly using olive oil or vegetable oil can cause door hinges to become sticky and gummed up over time. Additionally, residue from food-grade products can actually turn rancid.</p></div>

Eric with Legacy was great to work with. He was very informative and made the process very easy. Gave me a few different options and had the job done the very next day. We will definitely be calling on Eric again in the future when we need work done.

"I pay a monthly fee to CHW for insurance against equipment failure. Over a month ago CHW sent a repair technician to fix both of my garage doors, the technician made an adjustment on one door and chanced the opener on the other. A week or so ago the second door failed to open. Yes, my door opener is old, but the Warrantee says, if it can’t be fixed it will be replaced. CHW paid the tech $100 and said the rest $200 is on me. Please tell me why I should stay with CHW if I have to pay 2/3rds of the cost to replace the door opener? On a separate issue: Granted I accepted CHW’s offer of a Lowe’s card to replace my dishwasher, because I was unaware of how much dishwashers sell for, it cost me an additional 300. Again, please give me a reason for staying with CHW"
