Why It Matters

A Sticking Door Isn't Just Annoying.
It's Telling You Something.

A door that sticks in summer and swings fine in winter is telling you it's a seasonal wood expansion issue. One that sticks year-round with a gap at the top is telling you a hinge has pulled loose from the frame. One that suddenly starts sticking after years of being fine might be telling you the foundation has moved. The fix depends entirely on the cause.

We diagnose first. We don't just plane a door down until it barely closes and call it done — that approach creates problems in a year when the seasons shift and now it won't close at all. We find the root cause and fix that. The result is a door that works correctly in every season.

✔Diagnose the cause before touching anything — not just the symptom
✔Hinge adjustment, frame shim, or plane — right solution for the problem
✔Weatherstripping and draft sealing done properly, not just caulked over
✔Hardware replacement with properly rated fasteners and depth

Door & Window Repair FAQ

Common Questions About Door & Window Repair

Straight answers. No runaround.

Sticking doors are caused by four common things: seasonal wood expansion, loose or misaligned hinges, a settled frame or foundation movement, or a door that was hung slightly out of plumb to begin with. Each has a different fix — we diagnose which one before touching anything.
Yes — pre-hung and slab door installation is a regular job for us. We handle the removal of the old door, installation of the new unit, all hardware, weatherstripping, and threshold. We also make sure the door is plumb and square in the opening before finishing.
A standard door weatherstripping replacement typically takes 45–90 minutes. We remove the old material, clean the door stop, and install the correct type for your door and climate. You'll feel the difference in the first cold snap.
In most cases, yes. We carry common screen mesh and frame material. If your screen frame is in good shape, we can re-screen it on-site. If the frame is damaged, we measure and order a replacement screen that fits your window exactly.
Yes — loose hardware is a common repair. We check the screws, the strike plate, and the door frame itself. If screws have stripped out, we fill and reset them properly rather than just overtightening and hoping it holds.
Yes. Storm door installation typically takes 2–3 hours. We ensure the door is plumb in the opening, install all hardware, adjust the door closer for proper tension, and confirm the latch and lock operate correctly.
