Doors and windows that close, latch and seal

Door and window repair in Bozeman is mostly about the cold and the dry air. Entry doors that let wind in around the edges, storm doors with tired closers, interior doors that fit one way in January and another in July, and window sashes that will not lock tight all let heat out through a long winter. We adjust, weatherstrip and replace doors, repair window hardware, and trim windows inside and out so they look right and keep the weather outside. Our craftsmen are background checked, the business is insured, and the work is guaranteed in writing for one year. Call (800) 884-2639 to set up an estimate.

Bozeman homes cover a wide range. Older houses near downtown, in the Bon Ton and South Willson historic districts and the Northeast neighborhood, often still have original doors and trim on frames that have settled over a century. Newer homes on the west and north sides tend to have builder-grade doors and weatherstripping that flattens within a few winters.

Inside, the low humidity shrinks wood through the heating season and the big swings between day and night keep it moving. A door that latched fine in summer can drift open or rub in winter. Most of the time the fix is an adjustment at the hinges and strike, not a new door.

What we do

Door and window work

01

Entry doors

New entry doors, including doors with sidelights, installed plumb, insulated, sealed and trimmed.

02

Storm doors

New storm doors installed, and worn closers, sweeps and handles replaced.

03

Interior doors

Prehung doors and slab replacements, planed and adjusted so they close and latch through the seasons.

04

Weatherstripping

Drafts sealed at door edges, sweeps and thresholds before the cold settles in.

05

Window hardware

Sash locks, cranks and latches replaced so windows close and lock tight.

06

Window trim

Interior casing and sills, and sun-worn exterior window trim, repaired or replaced.

Small fixes that stop winter drafts

A lot of the cold air in a Bozeman winter comes in around doors and windows that are only a little out of adjustment. A worn sweep, a flattened bulb seal, a strike plate that no longer pulls the door tight, or a sash lock that does not draw the window closed can each leave a gap you feel on a windy day. New weatherstripping and hardware are quick to install and usually make a noticeable difference. When a door bottom or frame is soft from snow sitting against it, replacing the door and frame together is the lasting fix.

Signs it is time

When a door or window needs work

01

Daylight around the edges

If you can see light around a closed exterior door, the cold air can get through too.

02

A fit that changes with the season

Dry winter air shrinks wood doors and trim. Adjusting hinges and strikes usually brings the latch back.

03

Soft wood at the bottom

Snow and meltwater sitting against a door or frame for months leads to rot at the threshold.

04

Windows that will not lock

A sash that does not pull tight leaks air even when it looks closed.

How it works

How a door or window project runs

  1. 01

    Tell us what you need

    Call (800) 884-2639 or send the estimate form with a short description and a few photos, and our office will follow up to set a time.

  2. 02

    Measure and choose

    We look at the opening and frame, measure, and talk through door styles, hardware and finishes.

  3. 03

    Install and seal

    The door or hardware is installed, adjusted, weatherstripped and trimmed so it closes cleanly.

  4. 04

    Guaranteed in writing

    A background-checked craftsman does the work and cleans up. Our workmanship is guaranteed for one year from the invoice date, and if a defect in our work shows up in that time we repair it free of charge.

Cost

What affects the cost

01

Adjust or replace

Adjusting a door and replacing weatherstripping takes far less time than a new door.

02

Frame condition

A rotted or out-of-square frame has to be repaired or replaced along with the door.

03

Trim and finish

New trim, paint or stain on the door adds time.

Frequently asked questions

Why does my door fit differently in winter?
Bozeman air is dry, and indoor heat dries it further through the winter, so wood doors and frames shrink. Adjusting the hinges and strike usually gets the latch working again without replacing the door.
Can you replace an entry door?
Yes. We install new entry doors, including doors with sidelights, and insulate, seal and trim them.
Do you install storm doors?
Yes. We install new storm doors and replace worn closers, sweeps and handles.
Can you fix a drafty door without replacing it?
Often, yes. New weatherstripping, a sweep or a threshold adjustment usually stops the draft.
Can you repair window locks and cranks?
Yes. We replace sash locks, crank operators and latches so windows close and lock properly.
Can you work on original doors in an older home?
Yes. Older doors on settled frames can often be planed, rehung and weatherstripped rather than replaced.
Do you replace window trim?
Yes. We replace interior casing and sills and exterior window trim that the sun has worn down.
Can you paint the new door?
Yes. We can paint or stain new doors and trim so the job is finished.
Can you fix a sliding patio door that will not glide?
Often, yes. Cleaning the track and adjusting or replacing the rollers usually gets it moving smoothly again.
Is door and window work covered by your guarantee?
Yes. Our workmanship is guaranteed in writing for one year from the invoice date. If a defect in our work appears in that time, we repair it free of charge under the terms of your agreement.
