Renewal by Andersen of Central Virginia is proud to serve window replacement, patio door replacement, and entry door replacement needs throughout Central Virginia including Richmond, Charlottesville, and Harrisonburg. We are the window replacement division of Andersen Windows, drawing on the Andersen tradition of over 115 years of quality, innovation, and craftsmanship. Every member of our team is committed to taking care of not only our customers and the community we serve, but each other. We have a culture of making a difference, and we live those values every day.
"This company is a disgrace and should be avoided at all costs. We replaced every window and door at the cost of 55k only to have a complete disaster from beginning to end. 14 service calls and 18 months later they just completed the work in mid December 2022. Last night I discovered yet another problem, a dent in a door panel they changed out in December. They’re a bunch of amateurs that were not prepared any of the 14 times they were at our home. I basically had to project manage their team for them to make sure they had everything covered. We should have gone to Pella instead. Incidentally, Pella were very interested in our horrible experience with Richmond Window Corporation when I spoke with them recently. Apparently it’s not the first time they’ve heard complaints like this."

For most standard interior doors, professional installation takes approximately three hours from start to finish. The timeframe may extend if complications arise, such as the need for wall repairs or custom fitting. More complex installations like pocket doors or double French doors require additional time. If you're tackling the project yourself, expect the process to take longer, especially if you're new to door installation.
Most straightforward door frame replacements don't require building permits since they're considered minor improvements that don't affect structural elements. However, if your project involves widening the door opening, creating a new doorway, or modifying load-bearing walls, you'll likely need to obtain a permit from your local building department. Historical districts and some homeowners associations may have additional requirements or restrictions.
For a DIY interior door installation, you'll need basic tools including a tape measure, level, power drill with various bits, screwdriver set, hammer, utility knife, and shims. You might also need a saw for trimming the door if necessary, sandpaper for smoothing edges, and a chisel for creating hinge mortises. Having a helper makes the job considerably easier, especially when positioning and holding the door during installation.
When measuring for a replacement door, determine whether you need just the door slab or a pre-hung unit that includes the frame. For a slab door, measure the width, height, and thickness of your existing door. For a pre-hung door, measure the width and height of the rough opening (from stud to stud and floor to header). Also note the swing direction—whether the door opens to the left or right when facing it from the outside of the room.
