"John did an excellent job painting the exterior of our house. The estimate he gave was accurate to the final cost of the job, and he completed the job in the amount of time he estimated. He was communicative in the lead up to the job and promptly addressed any concerns. He kept a clean worksite and did a very neat job painting. He was also very helpful in pointing out a few areas for me to keep an eye on in the future for possible repairs. All, said, I had a great experience hiring John."

"Excellent work. We purchased natural cherry cabinets in shaker style, with the panels made of solid wood rather than veneer. That is more difficult work, as each panel has to be constructed from several planks. Moreover, the clear finish would leave any flaws more visible. Simply put, the doors are beautiful--flawless in both construction and finish. They are similar in quality to custom cherry furniture we own."

"Went great. Sales rep showed up very quickly after I called to request a bid. There was no hard-selling, no pushing of products I didn't need or want, just full information and a very reasonable price. They sent a second guy out to recheck the measurements before ordering the windows - he showed up exactly on time, finished his business quickly, and left. The subcontractor who installed the windows came well within the specified time range, protected the flooring appropriately, and replaced the windows complete with finishing the project with white caulking, and cleaning up completely afterward. When I need to replace more windows, this will be the company I call."

"Although not done for me directly, I was witness from start to completion, Josh planned and prepared the demolition of of the existing floor, made necessary improvements and laid the new floor with fine attention to detail resulting in a professional finish. A jack of all trades he is with knowledge of many home repairs and improvements. Also have seen the results of numerous small engine repairs and service with excellent results. I would recommend him for any household maintenance and beyond."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

Check for alignment issues or swelling due to moisture. A simple hinge adjustment or sanding may rectify the problem.

The vast majority of hinges are symmetrical, and either side of the hinge can go on the door or the frame. Occasionally, you'll find a hinge specifically made for right or left-handed doors with different attachment hardware or larger plates on one side. In most cases, the large side of the hinge goes on the frame.

It is possible to install hinges backward, so be careful when placing them. Position the hinge so that the hinge pin faces the direction the door will swing. For example, if you're standing on the side the door will open into, the pin should be visible. Be extra careful when installing exterior doors, as placing the hinges on the outside for an outward-facing door makes your home much easier to break into.

Generally, silicone-based sprays and greases are considered the best options for lubricating door hinges because they offer a long-lasting, easy-to-clean finish that can also help to prevent long-term rust and corrosion. Avoid food-grade oils that can "gum up" hinges or other parts of a door over time.

To remove painted-over hinges for replacement or paint removal, you should use a utility knife to score around the edges of the hinges gently. Work very carefully so as not to damage the surrounding area. From there, you can unscrew the hinges and gently pry them off the door, making sure not to bend the metal.

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.
