Exterior & Entry Door Replacement for Evanston, Illinois homes
An exterior door has to seal, latch and swing right for years, in a climate that swings a hundred degrees between January and July. That comes down to how it's set, not what it cost.
Evanston's pre-war houses are full of original profiles that have to be matched rather than replaced, and that is most of what we do here. Whichever it turns out to be, the carpenter who prices your Evanston job is the one who shows up to do it.
Then it's shimmed plumb at the hinges, checked for an even reveal top to bottom, and cased inside and out so the trim reads like it always belonged there.

Common questions
Exterior & Entry Door Replacement in Evanston, answered
Do you do exterior & entry door replacement in Evanston?
Yes. Evanston is inside our regular service area and we work there every month. Call (224) 944-8652 and we'll set a time to look at the job and put a written price on it.
Do I need a whole new door or just the frame?
Sometimes just the frame. If the slab is sound and only the jamb has gone soft, rebuilding the opening is cheaper than a pre-hung unit. We will tell you which one you are looking at before you buy anything.
How much does it cost?
Every job is priced after we see the actual space, so you get a real number rather than a range. The estimate is free, it's in writing, and the scope is spelled out before any work starts.
