Rehanging doors #2

Posted 3 months ago

Hi - I need someone who is able to come and rehang some doors for me. Just had new carpet laid and the doors were removed for this. They also will need a ‘bit of a trim’ as the new carpet has deeper pile than the old carpet. 4 doors in total - bedroom door, built in wardrobe doors, and a couple of small cupboard doors. Would love if this could be done sometime soon (Sat - Wednesday next week would be ideal!)
