Door Repair & Adjustment in Baton Rouge, LA
A door that sticks, drops or won't latch is the kind of daily annoyance you learn to shove past — until it won't close at all. In Baton Rouge a lot of it comes down to humidity: wood doors swell through the sticky months and shrink when the air finally dries, throwing the fit off. Shifting clay soil under older neighborhoods does the rest.
We find the real cause instead of just shaving wood off. Depending on the door, that could be re-seating hinges, moving the strike, shimming the jamb back to true, or planing down a swollen slab so it clears in every season. Exterior doors get their weatherstrip and threshold checked too, so you're not paying to air-condition the whole block.

Neighbors often ask
My door only sticks in summer — worth fixing?
It is, and it pays to do it correctly. We trim just enough to clear when the wood is swollen without leaving a gap in the dry months, so it works all year instead of only half of it.
Can you help my exterior door seal against storms?
We can. Fresh weatherstripping, a proper threshold and a door that actually meets the frame all around make a real difference against wind-driven rain and the summer power bill both.
