How do you fix a rotting wooden door without replacing it?

If the rot is surface level, a specialist will:

• Remove flaking paint and decayed timber
• Apply wood hardener
• Rebuild the area with resin or filler
• Refinish the door with stain or paint (don't forget to allow for curing time!)

However, if the rot has reached the structure, such as the panels, a partial rebuild may be needed. This will involve carefully cutting out the damaged section, before a new piece of wood is cut to fit.

Tip: If the repair costs are stacking up, a new door installation replacement could be a smarter, long-term investment.

Can a wooden door be patched?

Absolutely, an experienced door repair specialist can patch up small dents, cracks, and holes using wood filler or timber repair resin. Larger patches may require adding a new section of timber for strength and durability.

How long does wooden door repair take?

Simple timber and wooden door repairs may take under an hour. Meanwhile, treatments for rot, major cracks, or alignment issues can take several hours or require multiple visits (especially when drying or curing times are involved).

Can I repair wooden and timber doors myself?

Absolutely. There are certain DIY jobs, such as tightening hinges, sanding and repainting scuffed areas, that are more than doable if you’ve got the time.
