That'll be my hobby this month. Will try to complete repairs around the house. Feel free to add to this thread if you want to post your projects.
Anyone ever swap out a sliding glass door for a french door??
how hard was it? how many people did it take? and how long?

I hate them in every possible way, but they still need to be fixed.

not that hard if you have the right tools, ie: a door planer.

^ especially because you could cause issues with your waterproofing
I'd call a handyman for this one.

I know when we had work like that here, it took 3 guys to take care of it.
