Repair or replace?
Not every worn door needs replacing. Sometimes a repair is the smarter spend, and we will tell you when that is the case. If your door is warped, rotted, badly drafty, or hard to secure, or you simply want a better-looking and safer entry, a new door is usually the right call. Either way, you get an honest recommendation, not a sales pitch. If a repair makes more sense, see our door repair page.
How the installation goes
A good install comes down to fit. We measure the opening carefully, check that the frame is square and solid, and set the door so it swings true and seals tight. We handle the trim, the weatherstripping, and the hardware, then clean up before we leave.
The details are where experience pays off. If a door shows up the wrong size or damaged in shipping, we catch it before it becomes your problem, rather than forcing it into the opening. That kind of attention is why a specialist beats a general handyman for door work.

FAQ
It depends on the door you choose and the condition of the opening. A straightforward entry door swap costs less than a job that needs frame work or custom sizing. You get a clear estimate before any work starts.
