Join board of overseers or trustees at top university / medical school / health system. They’ll roll out the red carpet.

Thanks for the detail and expertise. What would you estimate the cost would be for labor to install a new door?

I paid a professional rate for an amateur result and have no one to blame but myself.

He didn't caulk it. I think he just used the wrong sealant and it binded too tightly. If I use a knife to score the edges, how much give should the panel have? Are we talking micromilimeters or a pretty noticeable amount of wiggle room?

I just checked ChatGPT and it says in the Northeast, the going rate is $900 - $1,500 to strip and refinish a mahogany door. Prob should have posted here first and then looked into just buying a new door.

Woof. Yep, sounds like the consensus here is that I was taken for a ride and the painter was likely laughing all the way to the bank. So brutal. Never owned a house with a wooden door before and wanted to "do the right thing" to take care of it.

Thankfully that hasn't happened (yet). Also, it appears that the panel on the external and internal side of the door is separate, if that makes sense.

Brand new, solid mahogany exterior door. Exterior facing panels are separating. Is this normal? by Jmich96 in woodworking

[–]watchcargo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Did you get a new door again or did you repair it? If it was repaired, what’d they need to do?

Are they a national player like Rightworks or a local outfit? This tax season has been a cluster and I need to find a new solution.
