Rotted Frames
Rotted Door Frames in Greensboro: Cut Out, Not Covered Up
The bottom of a door frame is the wettest wood on a house — splash-back, leaf piles, decades of Triad humidity. When it goes soft, handymen reach for filler and paint; a year later it's rot all the way through. We cut the decay out to sound wood, fabricate a matching piece from laminated lumber, splice it in and seal it. From $475, and the repair outlives the original.

Door Restoration
Older Greensboro Doors Deserve Restoring, Not Replacing
Fisher Park and College Hill front doors were built from old-growth wood you can't buy anymore. Restoration means the door stays: rot spliced out, hinges reset so it swings true, hardware rebuilt, weatherstripping renewed so winter stays outside. The house keeps its face; you keep about $10,000.

Sagging doors re-hung to swing true

Locks and latches serviced — $175

The Process
How Door Repair Works in Greensboro
From soft frame to solid door — probe, price, rebuild, warranty.
01/Probe the Wood
Rot hides behind paint: we probe the frame, threshold and door bottom to map where sound wood begins.
02/Written Price by Part
Frame wood from $475, door sash from $575, hardware $175 — each on its own line before work starts.
03/Rebuild & Rehang
Decay out, matching wood spliced in, hinges reset, hardware serviced — most doors finish in one visit once the wood is fabricated.
04/Swing Test & Warranty
Opened, closed, locked and slammed with you watching — backed by a written workmanship warranty.

Eugene fabricated both screens and new half double-pane windows for my home. He was professional, dedicated, and experienced. He went above and beyond to ensure the job was done right and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend WowFix for work that meets all expectations!

I had a fantastic experience with WowFix. They repaired my existing windows by cutting out rotted sashes, fashioning new ones on-site, and splicing them in. They look and work absolutely good as new!

WowFix is a great company for repairs on doors and windows. I had two rotten double-door frames that they rebuilt. They communicate well and the pricing was fair.

Door Repair in Greensboro — FAQ
Bad enough to fix this season, not bad enough to panic: frame-bottom rot is the most common door repair in Greensboro. We cut to sound wood and rebuild with laminated lumber from $475. Left alone, the rot climbs — and what's a frame repair today becomes frame-plus-subfloor next year.
Before We Arrive
How to Prepare for Your WowFix Door Repair Visit
- 1
Photograph the door and the problem spot
Take one photo of the whole door and a close-up of the trouble area — the track, the handle, the glass, or the soft wood at the bottom. It lets us quote faster and bring the right parts.
- 2
Note what the door is doing wrong
Jot down the symptom — grinds or sticks on the track, won't lock or latch, drafts around the edges, fog or cracks in the glass, soft flaking wood at the bottom. It tells us whether it's hardware, a glass-only swap (from $198), or wood work.
- 3
Clear the doorway and a few feet on each side
Move mats, planters and furniture back from both sides of the door — most door work happens from inside and outside at once, and a clear opening keeps the visit quick.
- 4
Find any brand sticker or paperwork
Door brands hide their stickers on the edge or hinge side. If you spot one — or still have install paperwork — set it aside. Not required, but it helps us match rollers, locks and glass on the first trip.
- 5
Make sure we can reach the outside of the door
Unlock gates, secure pets, and clear the deck or patio path. With access to both faces of the door, nearly every repair finishes in a single visit.
