Understanding Fiberglass Door Repair

Fiberglass doors are designed to withstand the elements better than wood or steel doors. They don’t warp, rust, or rot, which makes them a long-lasting option. However, they aren’t completely immune to damage. Issues such as cracks, dents, and scratches can occur, especially if the door is exposed to extreme weather conditions or heavy usage. Additionally, over time, the finish on the door can fade, detracting from your home’s curb appeal. Our fiberglass door restoration services address these problems, bringing your door back to its original beauty and functionality.

The Fiberglass Door Repair Process

Repairing fiberglass doors requires specialized knowledge and tools. Unlike wood, which can be sanded down or filled with putty, fiberglass repairs often involve resin patching or even replacing sections of the door. Our process includes:

  1. Damage Assessment: A thorough inspection to identify cracks, dents, fading, and other issues.
  2. Cleaning and Preparation: The door is cleaned to remove dirt and debris before repair work begins.
  3. Patching Cracks and Holes: We use high-quality resin to fill in cracks and holes, restoring the door’s surface.
  4. Sanding and Smoothing: The repaired area is sanded down to create a smooth surface that blends seamlessly with the rest of the door.
  5. Refinishing: We provide fiberglass door refinishing services, including applying UV-resistant coatings to restore the door’s original appearance.
  6. Hardware Check: All locks, hinges, and handles are inspected and repaired or replaced as necessary.
  7. Panel Replacement (if needed): For severe damage, fiberglass door panel replacement may be the best option.

Our feedbacks

Gina Morgan 01.11.2024

The gentleman from Window Guru was fantastic. He had my window repaired in 30 minutes. You could tell he knew exactly what he was doing, that he had done this repair many times before. I had ordered the part from Pella but because the window was more than 20 years old they would not repair it. He told me they could have gotten the part and maybe saved me some money. In the future I will call Window Guru first. I a very happy with their work.

Deciding Between Repair and Replacement

If you’re unsure whether your fiberglass door needs fixing or replacing, consider the following:

  • When to Repair: If your fiberglass door shows visible cracks, minor dents, or fading, fiberglass entry door repair can often address these issues effectively. It’s also ideal when dealing with hardware problems or small seal failures.
  • When to Replace: Extensive damage, such as deep structural cracks, warping, or widespread deterioration, may require fiberglass exterior door repair or a complete replacement. However, professional restoration can often resolve most issues without the need for a new door.

The Advantages of Fiberglass Door Restoration Over Replacement

Choosing to restore your fiberglass door rather than replace it offers several benefits:

  • Cost-Effective: Repairing specific issues, like cracks or dents, is usually more affordable than a full replacement.
  • Maintaining Original Style: Fiberglass door refinishing services can preserve your door’s original look, which is especially important if it has custom features.
  • Energy Efficiency: Fixing cracks, seals, and frame issues can improve the door’s insulation, reducing drafts and lowering energy bills.
