We don’t have contractor discounts or kickbacks We don’t have contractor discounts or kickbacks on materials, so we won’t tell you to REPLACE something that can be REPAIRED instead. But, sometimes, the damage can’t be fixed. #Before the original North-facing original #door & frame were rotten from slow snowmelt. #After Josh also replaced a piece of rotten trim below the threshold of the new door for a #topnotch #quality finish.

⏰💰📏There are some very important numbers i ⏰💰📏There are some very important numbers in #homeimprovement projects, like how long it will take & how much the materials cost. For prehung #doors, the JAMB depth measurement has a big impact on both time & price. 4 9/16” is the most standard jamb size; doors with frames this size & common #door dimensions are typically IN STOCK at the big box stores & other suppliers. This pic shows another common jamb size, 6 9/16”, which is also STANDARD but not usually stocked; instead these doors need to be ordered from the manufacturer. Standard special orders take less time than a fully CUSTOM door, with unique height, width, and/or depth, and/or style. So many choices…that’s why we do FREE site visits to make sure #homeowners can buy the right door to match their tastes & budget.

We added framing along the existing BEAM to hold the new heating/cooling ducts. With added insulation in the framed, exterior walls, this space will be much more comfortable.
