I'm slowly learning this myself. I have a contractor installing a front door as I type this.

But it's an old house, nothing is square or plumb, and I can't walk away from it halfway through if I run into trouble. More and more, I realize that I have to admit to my limitations and let those with more knowledge and experience just get the job done.
