Signs You Need to Repair or Replace Your Doors
So how do you know if you need a new door installation or door repair service? Here are some signs it may be time to upgrade the doors in your home:
- Your exterior doors don't open and close smoothly. Mr. Handyman can help you determine if a sticking door should be repaired or replaced so you can make a cost-effective decision.
- You feel drafts around an entry door. An easy way to check for air leaks is to hold a lighter close to the edges of the door while it's closed. If the flame flickers, you have a poorly fitting door that may need to be replaced.
- The threshold or a wooden door has moisture or other damage. Door frames, doors, and thresholds on the exterior of your home endure a lot. If the wood in or around an entry door is rotting from an insect infestation or the weather, it’s time for a new door.
- The double-pane glass in an entry door traps moisture between the panes. When insulated window panes fail, you're sacrificing energy efficiency, and risking mold and mildew developing. Replacing double-pane glass can be costly, so a new entry door may be the best option.
- Installing new doors for optimal security and energy efficiency requires a perfect fit and often requires advanced carpentry skills. Professional door repairs involve field experience with fixing wood, fiberglass, composite, and other door materials in both solid and hollow doors. When you partner with Mr. Handyman's door services, you get the skills, experience, and guaranteed results your home deserves.
