Atwood Home Builders was started in 1961 by Marvin “Bunker” Stein and has been proudly serving the residents of Pittsburgh for over fifty years. Since 1961, we have been replacing roofs, windows, siding and gutters, as well as installing concrete patios and driveways for the valued members of our community including teachers, nurses, doctors, city workers, churches and more. We enjoy working, living and raising our families in Pittsburgh and we care about our customers. At Atwood Home Builders, we have spent the last fifty years establishing a solid reputation as a company you can trust. Today, we are proud to be able to say that most of our new business is referred to us by past or existing customers. Family owned & operated.
"They installed a new roof, gutters, and downspouts for my house in late summer 2024. The quality was poor -- they had to return to fix their gutters as they were leaking. Now, the flashing is coming off and they are refusing to repair their sloppy work. The work did not even last one year, which is unacceptable. I'm concerned that as time goes by it will get even worse. They do not respond and do not seem to care. I cannot recommend this company."

"If zero stars was an option that is what I would select. The siding on my home was installed without starter strip and is now beginning to sag and come loose. The answer is to have it all removed and reinstalled. All because Tasz Construction skipped a very critical step to save money."

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.
