Are you a fanatic for do-it-yourself home improvement projects?
Is that why there is a snazzy new kitchen sink and gorgeous ceramic tile on your bathroom floor?
Okay, so we’ve established that you can handle DIY projects. So do not ask yourself, “Should I handle this door installation project by myself?” Instead ask, “Do I WANT to install this door myself?” Just because you can do something doesn’t always mean you should.

When you buy a door yourself, you may end up paying more than a professional door company would. And isn’t your time worth something?
