Doors come in all shapes, sizes, and materials. It’s important that the handyman you choose for the job be well-versed in all of them. When choosing Mr. Handyman for the job, our dedicated team will arrive on time, in uniform, and ready to get to work. We’ll thoroughly inspect the doors that need attention and discuss the type of repair that needs to be performed. Once you give us the go-ahead, we’ll get right to work. But what issues can we help with, exactly? Here are a few of the most common issues we see in interior and exterior doors:
Cracks in the door frame. Noticing cracks around your home, but especially in your door frame, baseboards, and window frame could be a sign of foundation damage. If you see cracks, call a professional handyman right away. When given the all-clear, we can resolve your cracks by filling them or replacing a full section of your door frame. Thankfully, it's possible to replace sections of your frame to avoid replacing the entire thing.
Warping. Water is a dangerous predator for wooden doors. While purchasing a solid wood door is a great decision, there are a few types of damage you need to look out for, and warping is one of them. When wood soaks up water and dries, it can become misshapen. This may mean your door no longer fits inside the frame. We'll need to sand out any protruding pieces so that it can properly close again. In more severe cases, our Brighton door repair experts will likely recommend a replacement.
Misalignment. If your door isn't hung properly, it may not fit inside the frame. Worse yet, one side may be hanging and putting pressure on a hinge that will eventually break. Doors need to be a certain size to properly fit inside. door frame and easily open and close, so we will need to take the door off its hinges to address this issue.
Wood rot: If your exterior door hasn't been sealed or painted recently, it's vulnerable to moisture. When moisture creeps inside a wooden door and doesn't dry quickly enough, wood rot can set in. Be on the lookout for stringy or crumbly sections and white or orange hues. Since this wood-eating fungus can spread quickly-and some forms can even travel across non-wooden surfaces-getting a fast repair is key to saving other wooden structures inside and outside of your home.
Peeling paint: More than just a cosmetic disturbance, peeling paint means that the material underneath is exposed to the elements-if the affected door is one that leads to the outside. Paint acts as the final layer of protection between your door and the sun and rain. Without it, your door will become UV and water-damaged, which may lead to its early demise.
Squeaky hinges: Every time you close your bedroom door, it creaks. This noisy issue isn't just a nuisance though, it's a sign that there's excess pressure on your hinges or your door is misaligned. Replacing the defective hinges means we will need to take your door out of the frame and rehang it.
Broken parts: Doors need knobs, locks, and hinges to operate. When one of these parts is broken, your door will either not be able to close, open, lock, or move at all. Thankfully, part replacement is quick and easy when you hire a professional Brighton door repair professional.
