Door Frame Repair Around Strike Plate Area
Crack around the strike plate making your door look worn or weak?
This area takes constant stress from daily use and often splits or chips.
I rebuild the damaged latch area using high-strength epoxy wood filler.
The surface is reinforced, shaped, sanded smooth, and colour-matched with paint.
The result is a solid, clean repair that restores both strength and appearance.
Homeowners across Ottawa choose this fix instead of replacing the entire door frame.
What this service includes: inspection of the damaged latch area, reinforcement if required,
epoxy wood rebuild, sanding, priming, and colour-matched painting.
When this service is needed: cracks, split wood, loose strike plates,
or visible damage around the lock area.
How the work is done: the area is prepared, rebuilt in layers for strength,
finished flush with the frame, and checked for proper latch alignment.
• Full door or frame replacement is not included in this service.
• Structural wall damage beyond the frame may require additional work.
• Hardware replacement is only performed if discussed in advance.
