When to Repair vs Replace Your Door
Many door problems can be effectively repaired without the expense of full replacement. We recommend repair when the door structure is sound, the frame is intact, and the issue is related to hardware, alignment, or minor damage. Repairs are typically much more cost-effective and can be completed the same day.
However, we’ll always provide honest advice about when replacement might be the better long-term solution. Factors like extensive structural damage, severe warping, or repeated failures may indicate that replacement is more economical. We can provide quotes for both options so you can make an informed decision.
