Interior Door Installation Near Northside-Northline, TX
Most interior door installation problems we get called out to in the Northside-Northline area of Houston trace back to preparation rather than product. Slab movement in this area throws openings out of plumb, which is why we shim rather than force the jamb. That is where our time goes on a Harris County job, and it is why the finish is still holding up years later.
