DOOR INSTALLATION &
REPAIR FOR DMV HOMES

Doors are the most-touched part of any home — and in older DMV properties, they're often the most neglected. A house built in the 1960s through the 1980s might still have its original hollow-core doors, painted over so many times the edges barely clear the frame, hanging on hinges that squeak every time someone passes through. These aren't cosmetic annoyances; they're daily friction points that a straightforward door replacement eliminates completely.

Upgrading interior doors is one of the quickest ways to modernize a home without a major renovation. Swapping hollow-core doors for solid-core 6-panel or flat-panel doors instantly changes how a room feels — quieter, more substantial, and more finished. 5 Star Pros handles the complete swap: remove the old door, check and correct the rough opening, hang and level the new pre-hung unit, install new casing if needed, set hardware, and paint or prime before we leave. Most single-door installs are done in under two hours.

Beyond new installations, we repair doors that stick, bind, squeak, or refuse to latch. Humidity in the DMV causes wood frames to swell seasonally, and older homes settle in ways that knock door frames out of plumb over time. We diagnose the root cause — whether it's hinges, a warped slab, a frame that's racked, or a strike plate that needs relocating — and fix it properly so it doesn't come back next season.
