How do I know whether my timber door should be repaired or replaced?

What parts of a timber door can you repair?

Can you repair rotten door frames?

keyboard_arrow_down

Yes. Rotten sections of a timber door frame can often be cut back to sound material and repaired using new timber or specialist resin. Where the damage is extensive, individual frame sections or the complete frame may need to be replaced.

Can you repair a door that sticks or is difficult to close?

Can you realign a dropped timber door?

In many cases, yes. A dropped door may be corrected by adjusting or replacing the hinges, repositioning the ironmongery or repairing loose frame fixings. More extensive work may be required if the door or frame has become distorted.

Can you repair doors that have become warped or bowed?

Minor distortion may sometimes be improved through adjustment, strengthening or hardware changes. Severely warped or bowed doors may require partial reconstruction or complete replacement to achieve a reliable fit.

Can you draught proof timber doors?

Can you repair doors that let in rainwater?

keyboard_arrow_down

Yes. Water ingress may be caused by failed seals, open joints, defective thresholds, damaged weather bars, loose glazing or poor alignment. We can identify and repair accessible defects, although nearby building or drainage issues may also need attention.

Can you repair loose or damaged door panels?

keyboard_arrow_down

Yes. Loose, split or deteriorated timber panels can often be secured, repaired or replaced. The best approach will depend on the door’s construction and whether the panel is designed to allow natural timber movement.

Can single-glazed timber doors be upgraded to double glazing?
