Handyman Recommendations

[Fargus]

Sucking up my pride and admitting that I have a couple projects outside my capabilities. The main one is replacing the door frame around my backdoor. It has rotted out at the bottom. Do we have anyone in the Conroe area that does this kind of work or can I get a recommendation for a reputable company?

In, as I have the same exact issue and need to find some as well.

I am on the other side of the world from OP though, SW Houston.

beyond a shadow of a doubt, I would call Carl - 832.691.5165. Text him. He has done work at my business and my house. 100% pro and good price.

looks to be termite damage so be prepared to dig a little further.

Easiest and best way, is to replace the whole door with a new jam. I wouldn't try and replace just the jam, alot more work then replacing the whole thing.

Definitely not the first person to suggest this, but there haven't been any signs of termites. I have seen a single bug nor have I seen any of the mud tunnels they are prone to building. If it is termites, it is old damage.

I’d suggest a new door, door jamb, and brick molding. It’s more of a pain than anything to try and replace just the jamb itself. It’s a simple job to be honest. Done plenty of them actually. Lol

Looks like termites to me. Nothing a tube of caulk can't fix. Kidding. Looks like your going to have to replace the door jam and spray for termites. Spray some Termidor for Termite control

I have heard that handymen are climbing in demand. General public is becoming more busy and less capable of making repairs. I don't mean that in a derogatory way. Any of yall full time handymen? Or is it more you do construction and handyman type stuff here and there?

I'm pretty miserable in my current career. Successful but miserable. Just looking at all the options.

OP, if you think about it and don't mind, pm me what this repair ends of costing you.

Normal between 4 and 500 for the door and to replace it from what i have seen around houston.

It’s super easy. Remove the brick molding, cut the fasteners and slide it out. Put the new one in the opening, square everything up and screw in place. Then just replace the molding and your good to go.
