"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."

"Scott was absolutely fantastic to work with. He reached out right away and always kept us updated. We gave him an extremely difficult swing structure to install and he figured it out as though he’d done it hundreds of times already. Would highly recommend working with Scott! Thank you so much again."

If you are not feeling the love then you are not experiencing the Higgins way. It is our aim to be sensitive to how every aspect of a remodel project effects your life. We ask these questions of every project we are undertaking: • Is this project aligned with the homeowners long-term goals as it relates to real estate values, family size etc? • Is this project economically feasible? • How do we do this in a way that minimizes impact on the homeowners daily routine? • Is it feasible for us to meet all of the homeowners expectation at this price point? • Are we dealing with issues as they arise so the homeowner knows what we know? • When the project is completely done does the homeowner feel totally taken care of?
"Higgins is a great company that has outstanding craftsmen in their employ. I've hired them for two major remodeling jobs. I will do it again if the need arises. They are friendly, knowledgeable, and skillful. Call them. You won't be disappointed!"

"It started out good and Jared told us he could install / hang new lighting and do tile work in our kitchen. Well, NOT true. The tile job was done very poorly and messy. We had sparks coming out of our outlets (that he didn't cover even though he said he ordered them and would return) and had to call an actual trained Electrician. The electrician told us whoever did the work didn't know what they we're doing. So, we had to pay extra to have three chandelier's re-installed / re-hung correctly and the outlets update. Note: We did try to call and email Jared to no avail. I would NOT recommend his services."

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.
