"Excellent! The Hidden Cove Construction crew was awesome. They did a fantastic job in a really difficult situation. The roof they replaced was underneath a large outdoor deck and there was little room to work. They were up and down multiple ladders for two straight days, working in tight spaces, and finished the job ahead of schedule. I highly recommend them. They are very diligent, dependable, and meticulous. I would hire them again anytime."

Any kind of repairs that you want done I can do. I am a jack of all trades and a little bit or a lot about a lot of things. I've worked as apartment maintenance overseeing 420 Apartments, and if it is something I cannot do I will let you know. But I guarantee quality work without the outrageous cost of most companies. I'm just a person that likes to fix things and make them look as good or better than they did before broken. That includes carpentry, plumbing, electrical work, AC repairs, even Appliance repairs. Something as small as hanging a TV bracket to as big as repairing Roofing or water leaks or water damage. Just give me a try I promise you won't be disappointed. I offer Senior Citizens and Veterans a 20% discount, and free estimates over the phone. "Jack of all trades, master of none, though oftentimes better than master of one"

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.
