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 Kernersville — FAQ

Almost certainly not. Inspectors flag rot; rot is a wood repair, not a door purchase. The decayed section gets cut out and rebuilt in real wood from $475, sealed against the water path that caused it — a written invoice that satisfies inspectors and closing attorneys alike. Weeks faster than ordering a door, too.
Before We Arrive

How to Prepare for Your WowFix Door Repair Visit

  1. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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.
