Description of Work: We had recently had new flooring installed in the entire first floor of our home and because old tile flooring was removed, a 1 inch+ gap was left at the bottom of every doorway and opening. We had Jim the Handyman come in and replace all the door molding trim and insert pieces of jamb to bring all the opening level with the new flooring. We also had him install the shoe molding throughout the first floor. The work that was done was very good. Much care was taken to make the new wood be seamless with the old. The trim was left "paint-ready" as we requested. The only issue we had was that the project took much longer than we anticipated with the carpenter having to return many times to complete the work. We were only scheduled for half days which dragged the whole thing out. The carpenter, however did excellent work and we would certainly hire them again for a project.
