Doors are the most-used piece of hardware in your home, and Newport Beach's coastal humidity and seasonal temperature swings work against them every day. Frames shift, hinges loosen, wood swells, and suddenly the door you closed a thousand times catches on the jamb, drops when you open it, or refuses to latch without a hip check.
OC Tasker provides door repair Newport Beach homeowners rely on for straightforward fixes that actually stay fixed. Our technicians realign misaligned doors, tighten or replace failed hinges, patch and re-drill hinge screws that have stripped, adjust or replace strike plates, and re-hang doors that have started to sag on their own weight.
OC Tasker is Newport Beach's #1 rated handyman service, and door repair is one of the most common calls we take. We show up with a full carpenter's kit — planer, chisels, hinges, screws, shims, and finish materials — so we finish the job in one visit whenever possible instead of asking you to schedule a second appointment for parts.
Every job is backed by our 1-year workmanship guarantee. If something isn't right, we come back and make it right.
Fully insured for your peace of mind.
Most estimates answered within 30 minutes during business hours.
Most jobs start at $299.
Every door repair appointment covers the specific work described in your estimate. Common items we handle in Newport Beach:
Sticking and rubbing doors
Planing, re-shimming, or re-hanging so the door swings freely without dragging on the jamb or floor.
Door alignment and adjustment
Straighten sagging doors, adjust hinges, and true up the reveal so the door sits square in the frame.
Loose or damaged hinges
Tighten stripped hinge screws, replace worn hinges, and repair the mortise when the wood has failed.
Latch and strike-plate problems
Re-position strike plates, mortise deeper when needed, and fix latches that spring or fail to engage.
Interior door repairs
Cracked panels, split rails, and dented slabs repaired or replaced with matching hardware.
Door hardware and lock installation
New knobs, levers, deadbolts, and privacy locks installed cleanly and squared to the strike.
Weatherstripping
Interior and exterior door seals replaced to cut drafts and improve interior comfort.
Minor frame and trim repairs
Split jambs repaired, casing re-secured, and door stops repositioned as part of a complete door fix.
Newport Beach's marine-layer mornings and dry afternoons cause interior doors to swell and shrink through the season more than an inland home would. Older peninsula and Balboa Island homes with original slab doors are especially sensitive — a door that fit last October may drag by March. Homes closer to the water also see faster hinge and hardware corrosion, so replacing tired brass with modern corrosion-resistant hardware often saves a follow-up call two years later.
