Are there other options for reinforcing this ? What kind of
contractor am I looking at for doing this kind of work?
I would so love this house but if I have to crawl through the doorway
to do laundry, it's all over I'm afraid...
Thank you so much for your input. I am pretty handy but this is
beyond me!
Is there any way you could lower the *bottom* of the doorway to match?
You then wouldn't have to crawl. It would still be something odd--some
kind of dip or something like that, but might be acceptable, given how
much you seem to love the rest of the house.
