Door Jambs
Cut door jams too short while preparing to tile floor. What is best way to repair short of replacing.

Paint or stained, cut how short??? If painted, caulk hides a multitude of sins. If stained, more difficult. 1/4" -1/2" can be fixed with caulk if painted. If stained and I was being paid for the job, replace the jambs.

Thanks guys (or I think guys)
The gaps are in the 1/8th in to 1/2 in variety. What I finally decided to do was to cut door jam material in different thicknesses then glue it in with caulk. Then I finished it with spakling, sanded, then painted. Looks pretty good (only had to do 8 doors, two of which were french doors).
