Door Frame
Posted in Garden Antiques on 02/17/2009 02:52 am by adminOur puppy tore up one side of our bathroom door frame. How much should it cost to have that one piece replaced?
Our 8 month old boxer got locked in the bathroom and completely tore up one side of the door frame molding. The wall and door are both fine, it's just that one side that needs to be removed and replaced. How much should this cost if I had a repair person take care of it?
Megan, it is important that you get local estimates, and don't come to rely on guesses found here on Yah, as a lot of factors really bear on the cost of such a project, including the going rate of someone who actually knows what they are doing in installing or otherwise repairing a door frame (correctly the first time around).
If it is a wood door, a local, skilled carpentry contractor can easily assist you in this project of yours. Free estimates from local carpentry contractors are the key to your success in this home improvement project of yours. Here's a great link to a handyman site that offers free very resourceful information to assist you in determining the cost of your project, and, ultimately, selecting a local contractor in an effort to get the best deal for you:

Alternatively, if you prefer to use a handyman contractor (who may be skilled in installing/repairing door frames just as well), here's some info on local handyman contractors as well:

I'm sure you'll find the information you need, specifically the tips, useful as it relates to being treated fairly by contractors and exploring the consumer-wise approach of getting free written estimates to find the best contractor in your area.
P.S. Don't hire for labor through big-box stores, unless you like paying them a premium for such a store to be a middleman between you and the carpentry/handyman contractor you could have dealt with directly.
