"I have used Mr. Handyman three times so far and will definitely use them again. It's been a joy to have a qualified person in my home who can take care of all the things on my TBD list, be they large or small, in a positive and professional manner. I think I had 9 things on my list the first time they came out, and everything was taken care of that same day. They are competent, focused, and there to help. Prompt, dedicated, great communication, and all the tools and supplies to get the job done. I felt their prices were reasonable, especially as the work was completely done when they left - no punch list, no coming back another day to finish. Cleaned up really well, too. I'm 100% satisfied."

"Bob was responsive, prompt, and clear in communications. We originally contacted him regarding a door replacement and then added on a number of other miscellaneous repairs to effectively use his time since we were a further drive for him. Bob helped us purchase the new door, providing advice and guidance on materials and other considerations. Bob clearly takes pride in his work and did not hesitate to take steps that, while adding a little more effort on his part, resulted in a higher quality finished product; there is no question that his work left our home in a better condition than when he started. Bob also gave clear explanations about where his efforts might be wasted, saving time and money now, and providing insight on projects that might be necessary further down the line (even those that would not be within his scope)."

You can generally remove between 1/8-inch and 1 inch when planing a door, depending on its construction. Exceeding this range risks compromising the door's structural integrity. For hollow-core doors, only trim the solid wood perimeter frame. Always start with minimal removal and check the fit frequently to avoid over-planing.
For basic door planing, you'll need either a manual hand plane or an electric planer . Additional supplies include sandpaper for smoothing edges, appropriate paint or stain for finishing, and possibly a screwdriver for hardware removal. Painter's tape helps protect surfaces during the process.
A professional handyperson or carpenter can plane a door in less than an hour. This includes removing the door, marking the areas needing adjustment, carefully planing the edges, and rehanging the door. DIY projects often take longer, especially for those unfamiliar with the process or working with limited tools.
No, planing should only be performed on wood doors. Metal, composite, and fiberglass doors require different modification methods entirely. Even with wood doors, hollow-core models need special attention as only their solid perimeter frame can be planed. Always verify your door's construction before attempting any modifications.
