"Hired him last year, and paid him for two jobs at my house. He completed one of the jobs, but couldn't do the second job on the same day, and asked if he could return to complete it. He asked me later if he could delay the second job because of the cold weather, so I agreed. As the weather warmed up, I hit him up to inquire about completing the second job, more delays. Was scheduled to come back. He was a no show, and he did not give me a courtesy call to explain why he did not make the appointment. After another rescheduled appointment, he called to reschedule that one. Another time he stated that it would be raining, it did not rain. He was scheduled to come back another time, but said that it was supposed to rain. The forecast did not call for rain that morning. He never showed up, and again he never had the decency to call me after I made sure that I would be home again, as I did the other previous times. He made the excuse that he does not control the weather, however it did not rain on either of the last two scheduled appointment days. After I waited, and then waited for him to get back to me, he said he would send me a refund for the second job that I paid for. I haven't received it yet. I'll pass on using him in the future, and it is sad, because I had other work for him too."

"I hired Quinn to replace the frame and door on an exterior garage door. He gave me an estimate based on 10 hours of labor. When he finished the job, I asked if I would get a refund since he came in under 10 hours. He said yes and explained that he should have explained that estimates are basically final no matter how long the job takes, but would still honor the refund since his estimate did not explicitly state that policy. It has been over a month and still have not received my refund. He also has stopped answering any of my calls or texts. On top of that, after maybe 10 times of opening the deadbolt lock, it already is completely broken so clearly he uses inferior hardware or installed it incorrectly. Either way, I would never even think about recommending this hack to do any work. He was paid a half price deposit before doing the work and I paid him the remainder as soon as he ?completed the job,? so he can?t even act like he didn?t get paid a fair price."

Busy schedules make both major and minor home repairs hard to get to. Now your growing "To Do" list looks overwhelming and unmanageable. One call to Mr. Handyman solves all your home repair headaches.
"Job was not completed. Parts received from manufacturer were not correct. Was told there would be a service charge if they couldn't install day they came, but what they charged was very unreasonable in my opinion. I paid it and emailed the owner. He said he was away and would contact me when he got back. His rep called me and offered a small reduction in price charged which was insulting. They even charged for a van rental fee. Hourly rate. Not happy."

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.
