Door and Trim Repairs for Rental Units

A bedroom door that will not latch and a closet door off its track make a unit look unfinished. We test every door and fix the cause along with the symptom.

Jambs and Casing

Split jambs and casing repaired or replaced.

Closet Doors

Bifold and sliding closet doors put back on track.

Baseboard

Loose, damaged or missing baseboard replaced.

Hardware

Why Property Managers Send Us Door & Trim Repairs

Doors That Latch
Doors are adjusted, planed or re-hung until they close and latch properly.
Replace Only What Failed
A split jamb gets a new jamb, not a whole new door, unless the slab is gone too.
Painted to Match
New doors and trim are painted on the same scope, so nothing is left raw.

Before the Doors Get Adjusted

Will the doors actually latch this time?

Every door is tested and adjusted, planed or rehung until it closes and latches.

Will I pay for a new door when only the jamb split?

No. A split jamb gets a new jamb unless the slab is gone too.

Is new trim left raw?

No. New doors and trim are primed and painted on the same scope.

Why do closet doors keep coming off the track?

Usually a worn or loose floor guide. We replace the guide, not just rehang the door.

When Doors Take a Beating Around DC

A move out sends furniture through every doorway. With moves peaking in August, summer is when the split casing and the door that will not latch pile up. Test every door at the walkthrough. See minor carpentry.

Get the Doors Latching Again

Note which doors stick, rub or will not latch. Hinges, strikes, jambs and casing are fixed on the same visit.

Request a Door and Trim Check

Testing the doors and pricing the fixes costs nothing. Each door and trim repair is listed in writing before work starts.

How the Project Runs

  1. 1We test every door in the unit and check the trim room by room.
  2. 2Each failed door or trim piece is listed with its repair.
  3. 3Doors are adjusted, repaired or replaced, and trim is reset or replaced.
  4. 4New work is primed and painted to match.

How we work

We fix why the door failed

A closet door that keeps leaving its track gets a new floor guide fixed down, because rehanging it alone means the same call next month. Rekeying to a master key system stays with your locksmith.

Door & Trim Repairs Questions We Get Asked

Can you rekey the locks?

⌄
We replace door hardware. Rekeying to a master key system is usually your locksmith's job.

Can you match our trim profile?

⌄
Where the profile is still available. If not, we tell you before replacing.

Why do closet doors keep coming off the track?

⌄
Usually worn guides or a floor guide that was never fixed down. We replace the guide, not just rehang the door.

What do tenants report broken most in the first week after move in?

⌄
There is no published count for it. The repairs that surface in the first week are things used daily that are easy to miss on an empty walk: closet doors with loose floor guides, latches that only catch when the door is pushed, loose handles and towel bars. That is why we test every door and check the hardware room by room before a unit is handed back.
