Typical Door Repair Prices

Typical door repair prices

Why the final price can differ: these are typical ranges, not quotes. What moves the price: the size and type of glass (tempered, low-E, triple-pane, decorative), how far rot has spread once the wood is opened up, second-story or ladder access, parts availability on discontinued brands, and how many repairs are done in one visit — several repairs in one visit cost less each. Minimum service visit: $150 — it covers all the small repairs we do in the same visit. We confirm and agree on the price with you before starting. Compare all repair prices
In Their Words

What Homeowners Say About Our Door Work

★★★★★

“Igor and his partner correctly diagnosed the problem with my Pella sliding door after Pella just told me that a ‘replacement’ was needed without inspecting the door. … The cost was a surprise and probably only 50% of the cost I expected.”

Carl H.Real review from Google
★★★★★

“I contacted this company to replace the fogged glass in my patio door and transom. … The glass was ordered quickly and installed as soon as it arrived.”

Karen V.Real review from Google

“They did an excellent job repairing windows and replaced wood around French doors.”

French Doors, Storm Doors & Garage Door Frames

French doors

French doors are mostly glass and mostly wood, so they fail in two ways: glass — a cracked pane, or an insulated pane that has fogged between the layers — and wood — the bottom rails, the jambs and the threshold rot where rain and snowmelt sit.

  • Cracked or foggy panes replaced with tempered safety glass, in the existing door.
  • Rotted bottom rails, jambs, thresholds and trim cut out and rebuilt with new wood, then primed and painted.
  • Not offered: hinge, latch or lock work, and full door replacement.

Storm doors

A storm door protects the entry door behind it — until its glass breaks or its screen tears. Water can also get trapped between the two doors and rot the wood frame and threshold behind the storm door.

  • Broken storm door glass replaced; torn screens rescreened.
  • Rotted wood frame, brick mold and threshold behind the storm door rebuilt.
  • Not offered: closers, handles and full storm door replacement.

Garage door frames and trim

The wood jambs, header and brick mold around a garage door take rain, snowmelt and splash from the driveway, so they rot at the bottom like an entry door frame.

  • Soft or rotted jambs, header and brick mold cut out and rebuilt with new wood, then sealed and painted.
  • Not offered: the garage door itself — springs, tracks, panels and openers. For those, call a garage door company.

Sidelights and transoms

The glass beside and above an entry door fogs or cracks like any window. We replace it with tempered glass without touching the door.

FAQ

Door Repair Questions

Door glass (entry doors, French doors, sidelights, transoms, storm doors and patio doors), rotted wood on door frames, jambs, thresholds, brick mold and wood doors, and sliding patio doors that drag, stick or jump the track. We also rebuild rotted wood frames and trim around garage doors.
We don't repair garage doors themselves — springs, openers, tracks or panels. We do rebuild the rotted wood frame, jambs and trim around a garage door opening.
No. For locks, deadbolts, handles, hinges and closers, a locksmith or door specialist is the right call. Our door work is glass, wood and sliding patio doors.
A hinged door that sticks or won't latch usually needs hinge or strike work, which we don't do. If the cause is a swollen or rotted frame, we can rebuild the wood. A sliding door that drags or won't line up — yes, that's roller and alignment work.
Sliding door roller and alignment work starts around $50, rotted door frame or jamb repair typically runs $200–$700, and door glass $300–$1,500 depending on size and type. A $150 minimum service visit covers all the small repairs done in one visit.
