Your Fondren Gardens Exterior Door Installation Crew
the Fondren Gardens area of Houston sits inside Harris County, and the housing stock changes street to street. We set the exterior door installation scope after looking at your house rather than off a price sheet, because Sill rot under an old threshold is common here and gets repaired before the new door goes in.
Our Exterior Door Installation scope in Fondren Gardens
- Door shimmed plumb and fastened through to framing
- Weatherstrip and threshold adjusted to a full seal
- Exterior trim caulked and painted
- Old unit removed and the opening checked for rot
- Sill pan and flashing set before the new unit
Weather sets the rhythm of this work along the Gulf Coast, and Fondren Gardens is no exception: humidity stretches dry times, summer storms interrupt exterior schedules, and a crew that plans around both finishes on time. Wind-driven rain in this region tests an entry door harder than day-to-day weather ever will.
We do not quote exterior door installation sight unseen. Someone comes out to Fondren Gardens, measures and inspects, and you get a scope that says what is included and what is not before you commit to anything.
