Wooden Door Repair
Why Regular Door Maintenance Matters
At No.8 Workshop, we help homeowners bring their old wooden doors back to life.
Every door is different, and we offer a wide range of repair options — from small fixes to more involved work. We can also work with you to create a custom solution that suits your home and your needs.
Most of our clients contact us because their door has:
Common Door Problems We Fix
Sticking Doors
Often caused by swelling, warping, or misalignment — we’ll plane and adjust the door so it opens and closes smoothly.
Broken Hinges
We replace damaged or rusted hinges and refit the door securely in place.
Loose or Faulty Handles & Locks
Whether your handle is loose, damaged, or no longer working, we can repair or replace it — including fixing worn-out areas around it.
Rotten Timber (especially at the bottom)
We remove the damaged section and carefully rebuild it using matching native timber.
Drafty Doors
We install weather seals and draught-proofing to keep the warmth in and the wind out.
Glass Repairs & Double Glazing
We replace broken panes and can upgrade your door with new double glazing if the style allows.
