"I have a very nice front door complete with carvings. The door is in three parts: The part you open, the glass door with wood frame in front of it and the side section of the door that is built into the house. Wesley from Mr. Handyman completed the job over the course of four separate days. This happened because Mr. Handyman had not counted on the job taking as long as it did and Wesley was scheduled to work elsewhere. He began by removing the glass from the wood frame and sanded it. I had unfortunately let the door go for too long, so the sanding required some work. I discovered that the bottom of the frame had a lot of wood rot. Wesley replaced the old wood at the bottom with ash, a wood that is far less likely to rot. He also coated it with something to protect it. He moved on to the front door and then the side section, sanding and staining everything. In addition, a little bit of the stain did not dry properly because it "bubbled," making it turn a sort of transparent white. He came back on the fourth day to correct that, spending around an hour and a half on the project, carefully scraping those sections with a razor. I was prepared to pay him for the fourth day, but he said that I owed him nothing because the bubbling was not my fault. If offered to pay him something anyway, but he declined my offer. The result is beautiful. I have an average house, but I told him the door looks like it belongs on an expensive house. I give Wesley highest recommendation. He's honest; he does a great job; he's there on time and he's pleasant."

"Thought I was going to have to replace the sliding glass door. Wayne looked at it and was able to fix the existing door. Save me about $800.00 Would definitely hire him again. He was on time and did the job quickly.."
A common way to modernize arched windows is to install interior window treatments that allow light through the curved portion up to and let you cover the bottom portion for privacy. You can also install plantation shutters to make an arched window look more modern. From the exterior, arched windows can appear outdated if they’re coupled with ornate trim, so toning down the decor can make your window look more natural with a modern design.
You can use a commercial water repellent treatment for glass on your shower doors to prevent water spots. Take care to only apply the product to glass. Letting air circulate also helps prevent water spots, as water is less likely to remain on the glass for a long time with good air circulation. Run your vent fan, open a window, and leave the shower door open for about half an hour after using the shower.
Yes, it is possible to repair a damaged or cracked mirror, but whether you should do it yourself depends on the extent of the damage. For minor issues like small chips, cracks, and scratches, you can use a DIY approach. Resin-based repair kits can fix minor cracks, while scratches can often be removed with metal polish, nail polish, baking soda, or a glass polisher. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for the best results.
However, for more significant damage, DIY repair is not recommended. Repairing and resilvering mirrors is a delicate process that can involve caustic chemicals and requires a high level of precision. The materials for a DIY attempt can cost over $100, which may not be a significant saving compared to hiring a professional. Since a failed attempt could result in more damage and higher repair costs, it is often better to hire a mirror repair expert from the start, especially for large, valuable, or extensively damaged mirrors.
The best tool for DIYers to use to cut glass is a glass cutter, which can either use a straight blade or a sharp cutting wheel to score glass. Once you score the lines you want to cut, elevate the scored line over a pivot point and apply light, even pressure to both sides. Make sure you wear protective gloves and glasses to stay safe during the process.
All of the things you use to help you get clean can leave your shower door looking dirty. Water can leave mineral deposits as well as unsightly spots when drops of water dry on the glass. Soap and shampoo can cause build-up and residue that leaves a layer of soap scum in your shower, which then attracts dirt. Mold and mildew can also contribute to dirty shower doors; these fast-growing organisms thrive in areas with poor air circulation, damp conditions, and residue from things like soap and shampoo.
