Door Repair + Window treatments and door trim

Carpentry work in Yonkers, New York brought a worn bedroom back into shape through a combination of door repair, door casing replacement, and window treatment removal. The before photos tell the story plainly: the door casing was stripped and damaged at both the hinge and latch sides, with raw wood exposed and paint chipping along the jamb edges. The bedroom walls carried a dated warm tan tone, and a pair of heavy grommet-top curtains hung from chrome rods across two windows — the kind of setup that had served its purpose but was ready to go.

The scope covered three distinct tasks that each required clean, careful hands-on work. The damaged door casing was removed and replaced with fresh trim, properly fitted and set for paint. The door itself was assessed and repaired so it hangs and closes correctly — something the before photo shows was compromised, with visible gaps between the door and the jamb. In Yonkers homes of this vintage, door frames take a lot of wear, and getting the trim and hardware right is the kind of detail that holds a room together.

The window treatment hardware came down as part of the refresh, clearing the walls for the repaint that followed. With the curtain rods gone and the walls brought to a clean cool gray, the room reads noticeably lighter and more open. A flat-screen television was wall-mounted in the bedroom as well, with cable management keeping the wire drop as neat as the rest of the finished space.

The completed bedroom in this Yonkers home shows what attentive carpentry and surface work can accomplish — a properly hung and trimmed door, freshly painted walls, and a room that finally feels finished.
