Rain, wind and age. The wet season runs from October to May, so frames stay damp at the threshold until they rot, and wood doors swell until they stick. The east wind out of the Gorge drives rain sideways into doors on the east side of town. And the west side has homes from the early 1900s with original doors and frames that have settled.
In Vancouver most door calls are a rotted frame, a swollen door or a seal that quit, and all three are repairs. A rebuilt frame and a sealed, rehung door last for years. When the slab itself is rotted through, we install the one you choose.
Not for a repair: a rehang, a rebuilt frame or new hardware are ordinary repairs. Vancouver issues residential permits for alteration work, and its exempt list was not readable to us, so we check with the city for your address before you buy a new exterior door.
Cold, dry air pours out of the Columbia Gorge in winter and hits the east side of Vancouver hardest. It drives rain sideways under thresholds and around worn weatherstrip, so east-facing doors need the tightest seal in town.
Homes from the 1900s to the 1940s with original wood doors. We plane and rehang them, rebuild frames rotted at the sill and fit new hardware to old doors.
Mid-century homes with builder doors and frames that have soaked for decades. We rebuild the frames, rehang entry doors and swap split hollow-core doors.
Planned streets that take the full east wind. We reseal doors against driven rain, replace thresholds and install new doors the association approves.
We price the repair or the install on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled.
Shims, hinges, strikes, weatherstrip, jamb stock and the common locksets come along, so most repairs finish the day we arrive.
We measure first so you buy the right size and swing, then hang the door you bought, frame fixed first so it stays true.
The work area is cleaned before we leave, and every repair and install carries our one-year workmanship warranty.
Rehanging a door, rebuilding a frame, a new slab or new hardware are ordinary repairs that need no permit. The City of Vancouver requires residential permits for alterations, and we could not read its exempt list, so we check with the city for your address before you buy a new exterior door. A larger opening always takes a permit.
The residential code wants the door between the garage and the house to be solid wood or steel at least 1-3/8 inches thick, or rated for 20 minutes, and to close on its own, as the code requires. Many older homes have a hollow-core door there; we install the right door, and the closer where one is needed.
Most of west and central Vancouver has no association; many of the east-side streets do, and they approve new exterior doors. A repair that matches needs nothing; for a new door we put the size, style and finish in writing for the form.

Call 360-347-2002Call or text a photo and we price it right away; most repairs are on the schedule within days. Rehangs, frame repairs, new weatherstrip and lock swaps are one-visit jobs, because the parts come on the truck.
Wood takes on water through the wet season and swells. We plane the door where it binds, seal every edge, top and bottom included, and rehang it so it closes in the wet months and the dry ones.
It depends on what failed: a rehang and a new strike cost far less than a rebuilt frame or a new prehung door. Tell us what the door is doing, or text a photo, and we give you the price on the call, in writing, before anything is scheduled. No surprises at the house.
Usually, yes. We fit a new threshold and sweep, replace the weatherstrip and rehang the door so it presses tight against them. If the frame is rotted at the bottom, we rebuild it first.
We install them. You pick and buy the door, from a home center or a door shop, and we install it: we measure first so you buy the right size and swing, fix the frame, then hang, seal, trim and fit the hardware. Prehung or slab, interior or exterior, French or patio.
Yes, that is most of our installs. Tell us the size and whether it is prehung or a slab, or text a photo of the label, and we price the install on the call. If the opening needs work first, we tell you before the door arrives.
Not to repair one. For a new exterior door we check the city rule for your address before you buy it, and a larger opening always takes a permit. We tell you on the call which applies.
