Where the gap really is
Light, air, pests, or water may be entering at the bottom, sides, corners, or a combination of locations. We locate the gap before changing thresholds or weatherstripping.

When door threshold & weatherstripping repair makes sense
Repair worn thresholds, door sweeps, gaps, and weatherstripping that let in drafts, light, pests, or water.
Drafts and water at a doorway can come from the sweep, threshold, perimeter weatherstripping, or the way the door sits in the opening. We check the visible gaps and wear pattern so new seals are installed where they can actually make a difference.

Before we price it
Three things that change the repair decision
Repairable versus replacement territory
We will not pretend every damaged item should be patched. If replacement or a specialist trade is the better long-term answer, that should be clear before money is spent on the wrong repair.

If you have other nuisance repairs, list them with the main request. Bundling compatible work can help you solve more problems in one coordinated visit.
