Carpenter to reposition newly installed door jambs.

$260

South Yarra, Victoria

27th May 2026

Hi, I recently had 2 new jambs installed and the angle is a little different to the original on both sides. The originals followed the plaster edge better, so now the wall edge sticks out more. It's noticable in person. I am looking to have them remounted in the original position. However, only if the jambs can be pried off carefully without splitting them or damaging the walls. If not, let me know and I may leave it as is. (Also, the part above the door is not wall, but a solid piece of MDF that was drilled in with 4 screws and comes out) Thanks!
