Pricing

Pricing & quotes

How much does door repair cost in Ottawa?
+
Cost depends on the door, the damage and the parts needed. We give you a locked flat-rate price before any work starts, so you always know the cost up front. Call 613-265-3667 for a free quote.
Is the quote really free?
+
Yes. Quotes are free and come with no obligation. We assess the issue and give you a flat-rate price — you decide whether to proceed.
Do you charge a service or call-out fee?
+
We're transparent about any fees up front. There are no hidden surprises — the price you approve is the price you pay.
Is your pricing flat-rate or hourly?
+
Flat-rate. We lock the price before we start so the cost can't climb partway through the job. No invoice shock, no upselling.
What payment methods do you accept?
+
We accept common payment methods including debit, credit and e-transfer. Let us know what's easiest for you when we book.
Will the price change once you start the work?
+
No. You approve the flat-rate quote before we begin and we don't charge more. If we uncover something major behind the scenes, we stop and re-quote for your approval first.
Do you charge extra for evenings or weekends?
+
We work 7 days a week. Any after-hours or emergency rate is disclosed up front before you commit — never added as a surprise.
Do you offer free estimates over the phone?
+
We can often give a ballpark range over the phone once we understand the problem, then confirm a firm flat-rate price on site. Call 613-265-3667.
Emergency & Security

Break-ins & emergencies

Do you offer emergency board-up service?
+
Yes — 24/7 emergency board-up across Ottawa and the Valley. If your door is smashed from a break-in, storm or fire, we respond fast to secure your property until permanent repairs are done.
My door was kicked in during a break-in — can you help?
+
Absolutely. We secure the opening immediately, then repair or replace the damaged door, frame and hardware — and can reinforce it against future forced entry.
Can you secure my home tonight?
+
Yes. Our emergency crew responds day or night to board up or temporarily secure your door so your home is safe until we complete the repair. Call 613-265-3667.
Do you repair doors after attempted forced entry?
+
Yes. We repair split jambs, bent frames, damaged strike plates and broken locks, and can add reinforcement hardware to make the door far harder to force.
Can you reinforce my door to prevent break-ins?
+
Yes. We install heavy-duty strike plates, longer screws, security strikes, deadbolts and frame reinforcement to strengthen the weak points intruders target.
My lock is broken and I'm locked out — can you help?
+
Yes. We repair and replace locks, deadbolts and handlesets and can get a jammed or failed lock working again. Call 613-265-3667 for fast help.
Do you replace damaged door frames after a break-in?
+
Yes. Frame and jamb repair is one of our core services. We rebuild or replace damaged frames and reinforce them so the door closes, latches and locks securely again.
Residential

Home & residential doors

Do you repair interior doors?
+
Yes — bedroom, closet, bathroom and other interior doors. We fix sticking, dragging, latching and hinge problems and can rehang or replace doors as needed.
Do you repair exterior and entry doors?
+
Yes. Exterior and front entry doors are our specialty — alignment, weather sealing, hardware, frames and locks, plus full replacement when needed.
Do you fix doors that won't close or latch?
+
Yes. A door that won't close or latch usually comes down to alignment, worn hinges, a shifted frame or a misaligned strike. We diagnose the cause and fix it properly.
My door is sticking or dragging — can you fix it?
+
Yes. Sticking and dragging are among our most common calls, often caused by seasonal movement, loose hinges or a settling frame. We realign the door so it swings freely.
Do you repair sagging doors?
+
Yes. Sagging doors are usually a hinge or frame issue. We reset or replace hinges, repair the jamb and rehang the door square so it sits and latches correctly.
Do you repair or replace hinges?
+
Yes. We repair, tighten and replace worn or damaged hinges and hardware, and fix the stripped screw holes or jamb damage that often comes with them.
Do you fix squeaky or loose doors?
+
Yes. Squeaks, rattles and loose handles are quick fixes for our techs — we service the hinges, hardware and fasteners so the door feels solid again.
Do you repair patio and sliding doors?
+
Yes — patio door repair is one of our most requested services. We fix sliding doors that stick or jump the track, French patio doors, broken rollers and tracks, handles and locks.
Do you replace patio door rollers?
+
Yes. Worn rollers are the usual reason a patio door drags or won't glide. We replace the rollers and clean or repair the track so it slides smoothly again.
Locks & Hardware

Locks, closers & sealing

Do you repair and replace locks?
+
Yes. We repair and replace locks, deadbolts, handlesets and commercial hardware, and fix locks that stick, spin or won't engage.
Do you install deadbolts and keyless entry?
+
Yes. We install deadbolts, keyless and keypad locks and smart locks, and retrofit existing doors to accept new hardware securely.
My deadbolt won't lock properly — can you fix it?
+
Yes. A deadbolt that won't throw is almost always a misaligned strike or shifted door. We realign the door and strike so the bolt engages fully and smoothly.
Do you install door closers?
+
Yes. We install, adjust and repair residential and commercial door closers so doors shut at the right speed and latch every time.
Do you replace weatherstripping?
+
Yes. We replace worn weatherstripping, door sweeps and seals to stop drafts, cut heat loss and keep water and pests out.
Do you fix drafty doors?
+
Yes. Drafts usually come from failed weatherstripping, a worn sweep or poor alignment. We seal and adjust the door so it closes tight against the frame.
Glass & Frames

Glass, frames & weather damage

Do you repair broken door glass?
+
Yes. We repair and replace broken or foggy door glass, including entry-door inserts, sidelights and patio-door panels, and can board up until the glass is replaced.
Do you repair rotting or water-damaged door frames?
+
Yes. We repair or rebuild rotted and water-damaged frames and jambs, address the source of moisture, and reseal the door so it stays solid.
Do you repair French doors?
+
Yes. We fix French doors that won't align, latch or seal, including hardware, hinges, astragals and the dragging or gapping that comes with movement.
Do you fix doors damaged by winter or cold?
+
Yes. Ottawa winters cause doors to swell, stick, frost up and pull out of alignment. We realign, reseal and free up frozen or seized doors and locks.
Do you repair screen doors?
+
Yes. We repair and replace screen doors, sliding screens, rollers, frames and mesh for homes and cottages across the region.
Commercial

Commercial & storefront

Do you service commercial and storefront doors?
+
Yes. We service commercial entries, storefronts, office doors, hollow-metal doors and more for retail, offices, medical, schools, property managers and industrial sites.
Do you repair automatic and accessible doors?
+
Yes. We repair and install automatic operators and accessibility openers so they open, close and hold reliably and safely.
Do you install and repair panic and exit bars?
+
Yes. We install, adjust and repair panic hardware and exit devices to keep your exits code-compliant and working smoothly.
Do you service aluminum storefront doors?
+
Yes. We repair aluminum storefront doors — pivots, closers, locks, thresholds and alignment — common on retail and office entries.
Do you handle fire-rated doors?
+
Yes. We repair and install fire-rated doors and hardware while keeping the assembly's rating and compliance intact.
Do you offer access control and electric strikes?
+
Yes. We install and repair electric strikes and access-control hardware so secured doors release and lock the way they should.
Do you work with property managers and businesses?
+
Yes. We work with property managers, condos, supers, retailers and facility teams across Ottawa, with flat-rate pricing and fast scheduling. Call 613-265-3667.
New Doors

Installation & replacement

Do you install new doors?
+
Yes. We supply and install new doors — interior, exterior, patio, storefront, fire-rated and custom architectural doors — for homes and businesses across Ottawa.
Can you match my existing door?
+
In most cases, yes. We help you select a replacement that matches your existing door's size, style and hardware so it fits the opening and the look of your home.
How long does a door repair take?
+
Most repairs are completed on the same visit, often within an hour or two. Larger jobs or special-order parts may take longer, and we'll tell you the timeline up front.
What kinds of doors can you install?
+
Interior and closet doors, exterior entry doors, sliding and French patio doors, aluminum storefronts, hollow-metal, fire-rated and custom architectural doors.
