"Had a great experience with Ali and Zam Zam Home Services. Ali was friendly and did a great job on all the little things and larger tasks I asked to be done. His price was very reasonable. He completed all the tasks within a half day which included replacing a bathroom vanity, fixing two doors that would not shut properly and retrimming one of them and installing a new mailbox post and mailbox. He was very punctual and cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend Ali for any handyman needs."

"Ben Lindow installed two exterior doors recently in my 1927 home. It was a difficult and complicated job, as the house had non-standard sizes for things and has shifted and moved as all old homes do, but Ben patiently worked it all out, and now we have two beautiful, well-fitted, secure and weatherproof doors on our home. I could not be more grateful. Definitely would recommend his work, and he's a nice guy, too."

HANDYMAN SERVICES, including all painting, maintenance, repair, assembly, replacement... Your honeydo list is our specialty. You make the list, we go through it together, either by appointment or phone and pictures. We give an itemized estimate of completing the tasks. There are very few, if any, home related things we have not painted, maintained, repaired, assembled, or replaced. Please visit our website at honeydoandmore.com
"From the very first phone call, I felt heard and understood as a customer. They understood exactly what I was asking for - finishing up a remodel job that needed one more coat of paint, as well as installing vinyl flooring on our entry way landing (we ended up with extra from the re-model). They were honest as far as expectations for when the work could be done, pricing, and workmanship. So pleased with working with them the first time, we have now used them again, and look forward to working with them in the future on other projects we need assistance with."

"Haley did a wonderful job replacing the Powder Room toilet wax ring, interior flush valve/assembly & then caulked at the floor. She also replaced the flush valve for another toilet, and verified a third toilet didn't have any issues. She changed out 3 electrical switches to dimmer switches. And she also changed out the ice maker in the bottom freezer. She just stopped back out today to fix it as it was making too much ice. I purchased all items in advance so she could just focus on the installation scope. She's a wonderful, lovely person who does her job well, has a nice demeanor and is safe in your home. I highly recommend her and will be calling her in the future."

Doors repairs FAQs
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.
