Professional Doorway Widening

If the doorway widening impacts electrical wiring or plumbing, the systems will be rerouted or adjusted. Mr. Handyman’s suite of home improvement experts includes professional electricians and plumbers who can handle these modifications to ensure your safety and compliance with building codes.

Mr. Handyman’s local service professionals will assess the existing doorways and get to know your specific needs. We’ll measure the current doorway widths, inspect the surrounding walls, and discuss the purpose of the modification—whether for wheelchair access, mobility aids, general convenience, or other reasons.

We’ll create a detailed plan that outlines the project scope, including which doorways will be widened. Our doorway widening process includes any additional modifications needed, like relocating light switches and vents.

Depending on local building codes and regulations, we may need to obtain permits before beginning work. We’ll handle the paperwork and ensure all modifications comply with building standards and accessibility guidelines.

The finishing touches include painting or staining the new door frame and trim to match the existing decor. Your professional handyman will also install a new door if required and ensure all hardware is correctly fitted and functional. A final inspection is conducted together with you to ensure the work meets all safety standards and your desired results. Plus, complete clean-up of the work site is always included when you choose Mr. Handyman.
