Door Repair & Installation in Williamson County, TX
If your doors are sticking, sagging, or won't latch — it's not the door's fault. It's the soil.
Why This Matters
You’ve noticed it. The bedroom door that used to close perfectly now drags on the carpet. The back door needs a hip check to latch. The bathroom door swings open on its own.
Welcome to clay soil country.
Williamson County’s expansive clay shifts with every rain cycle and every drought. Your foundation moves — sometimes less than a quarter inch, but that’s enough to rack a door frame out of square. The door hasn’t changed. The frame has.
Most handymen shave the bottom of the door and call it fixed. But the frame is still out of square, and next season when the soil moves again, the door sticks somewhere else.
The real fix? Assess why it’s binding, correct the hinge alignment, adjust or plane the door to fit the frame as it is now, and set it up to handle seasonal movement.
Our Approach
Diagnosis first. Before we touch a tool, we check why the door isn’t working. Is the frame racked? Are the hinges pulling out of soft wood? Is the threshold shifted?
Repair and adjustment. For sticking doors, we may shim hinges, deepen mortises, plane the edge, or adjust the strike plate. For sagging doors, we replace hinge screws with longer ones that bite into the framing.
Replacement and installation. When a door is beyond repair, we replace it. We handle pre-hung and slab doors, interior and exterior.
Custom trim matching from our workshop. If your home has a specific door casing profile that’s no longer stocked, we take a sample back to the shop and mill a match. Same wood species, same profile.
Sliding and screen doors. We disassemble, clean, replace worn rollers, adjust the height, and get sliding doors gliding smoothly. Screen doors get new mesh, new closers, and proper alignment.
The Workshop Advantage
When door repair involves custom trim matching — a discontinued casing profile, a rotted jamb that needs rebuilding with matching wood — we mill the parts in our shop. The new trim looks like it’s been there since the house was built.
