Installed Like We'll Be Back
Installation Is the Product
The Door You Buy Matters Less Than the Hands That Hang It
Two identical doors, two installers: one entry still closes like a bank vault in fifteen years, the other drags, leaks and rots at the bottom in five. The difference was never the slab — it was the hour nobody watched: the frame set dead square, shims where the load lives, flashing lapped so water sheds out instead of in, sealant where sealant belongs. That hour is our specialty, because we're the company that spends the rest of the year repairing other people's shortcuts.
-
Frame set square and plumb — the door swings true for decades
-
Flashing and sill pan done right — water never reaches the wood
-
Foam and perimeter sealing — no winter ribbon of cold air
-
Hardware fitted and cycled, not just screwed on
The Honest First Step
We Still Check the Repair Math Before You Spend Real Money
Replacement is the right call for some Garner doors — split slabs, frames crushed out of square, entries past their dignity. But the estimate visit starts with the repair check anyway: if your door's problem is a $475 frame rebuild or a $175 hardware fix, you'll hear that first, with prices. When replacement wins, you get a free written estimate for the real scope — no teaser number that grows on install day.
- hardware $175
Repair lines quoted first when they solve it: wood $475
-

The Process
How Door Replacement Works in Garner
An honest assessment, a real number, an installation that outlives the warranty.
01/Assess & Compare
The repair check first — if a rebuild or hardware line solves it, you hear those numbers before any replacement talk.
02/The Real Estimate
Full replacement scope in writing: door, frame work, flashing, hardware, haul-away — one number that doesn't move.
03/The Careful Hour
Old door out, opening prepped, new frame set square, shimmed, flashed, foamed and sealed — the hour that decides the next fifteen years.
04/Final Swing Test & Warranty
Swing, latch, lock and seal checked with you at the door — backed by a written workmanship warranty.
Transparent Pricing

- Repair alternative always quoted first — wood $475, hardware $175
- For context — a quality entry or patio door installation runs ~$10,000

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 Replacement in Garner — FAQ
More than swapping slabs: the old unit comes out, the opening gets inspected (and any hidden rot handled while it's exposed), then the new frame is set dead square, shimmed at the load points, flashed so water sheds outward, foamed, sealed and finished with hardware fitted properly. That sequence — not the door brand — is what decides whether it still closes sweetly in fifteen years.
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.
