Exterior doors are known for their sturdiness, but even they can break down over time. Age, wood rot, termite damage, and the like are common reasons a door may need replacing. Older exterior doors can also warp over time, especially in Virginia Beach’s humid summers and rainy springs.
If you have to struggle to close and lock your exterior door, you could be compromising the safety of your home. Poorly fitted doors can also dramatically lower your home's energy efficiency, letting in hot air in the summer and cold air in the winter. Either way, your energy bills can soar.
Interior doors aren’t as strong as exterior doors and can be damaged in several ways. If something heavy hits an interior door, it could break the door or damage its hinges. Likewise, a spill or leak could damage the wood.
