Plane door and rehang

Looking to trim a door after installing a new carpet? Let The Handy Lot take care of it. Welcome to The Handy Lot.

So, you've recently had a brand-new carpet installed, but shortly after the fitters left, you noticed that two of the doors had to be forced to close, and the other one doesn’t close at all? While this might seem like a highly specific situation, if you're facing a similar issue, don’t fret. Our carpenters in Coventry are here to lend a helping hand because when one door closes, another might need some trimming down or an extra push!

Weather conditions, especially during high moisture and humid days, can cause wooden doors to swell. If your door has swelled due to weather, our Coventry carpenters might only need to trim a few millimeters. In case you've recently had new carpets fitted, we often need to remove up to one centimeter, depending on the thickness of the carpet. Perhaps the door simply needs some tightening, or the hinges need some shimming. But regardless of the solution, nobody enjoys having doors that are stuck or jammed.

If your door is old and showing signs of wear, you might consider replacing it instead of simply trimming it down. Small cracks in doors, letterboxes, and windows can lead to draughts. Therefore, to save energy and keep your house warm during the winter months, investing in better insulation or replacing your doors with modern, better-insulated ones is a wise decision.

At The Handy Lot, we offer a variety of other services you might require, including draught proofing, repairing holes in walls, painting front doors, repairing locks, and hanging shelves, among various other services. Request a carpenter today by emailing us or give our team a call on 07827662220.
