What it usually is
Screws pull out of particleboard over time. The fix is usually a tightened hinge with a filled screw hole, or new hinges.
What to do first
Take a photo of the hinge. If the door is heavy and falling, remove it and set it aside until it is repaired.
The flat rate that covers it
- Anything else: $90/hr
The West End and Proctor area of Tacoma has older homes, a walkable business district and streets lined with mature trees. Mature trees and older sewer lines go together, and roots are a common reason a drain in an older West End home keeps coming back.
