Sticking or damaged door causing trouble?

What types of door repairs can a handyman handle?

‍A handyman can repair most internal and external doors, including issues with sticking frames, squeaky hinges, broken handles, misaligned latches, and damaged locks. They can also plane or trim doors that no longer fit properly, replace hinges or hardware, and repair surface damage from wear or impact. If your door needs structural replacement or has major security issues, your handyman can advise on whether a joiner or locksmith is more appropriate.

Can you fix both wooden and uPVC doors?

‍Yes. Skilled handymen can work on most door materials including wood, uPVC, and composite types. They use the correct tools and fittings for each material to ensure repairs are done safely and without causing further damage.

How much does a door repair cost?

‍Minor repairs such as tightening hinges or adjusting alignment typically start from £60. Replacing hardware or repairing locks can range from £80 to £150 depending on the complexity. All pricing is transparent before the work begins, so you know exactly what to expect.

How long does it take to fix a door?
