Serving Naples with Excellence

Iron and Wood Door Restoration Done Right, From the First Step

Serving Naples with a level of care that matches what this community expects from the people who work on their homes. Naples homeowners take their properties seriously — the architecture, the landscaping, the details — and an entry door that has faded, rusted, or lost its finish stands out in a neighborhood where everything else is well-maintained. Southern Door Refinishing is based right here in Naples, which means we understand what the coastal air, the summer humidity, and the intense UV exposure do to iron and wood doors over time. Every project is approached with the same process and the same standard — full preparation, professional spray application, and a protective finish built to hold up in this specific climate. Whether your door is a single iron entry or a set of double wood doors on a larger property, the result will reflect the quality that Naples homeowners expect when they invest in their home.

What We Do — And What We Do Well

Iron Door Refinishing

Iron Door Refinishing

Iron doors take a beating in Florida's climate — salt air, humidity, and direct sun wear them down fast. We strip the old finish, remove rust and surface damage, then rebuild the door from bare metal using professional primers and topcoats. The result is a smooth, factory-quality finish that protects the door and restores its presence at the front of your home.

Wood Door Refinishing

Wood Door Refinishing

Wood doors lose their color and protection over time, especially with Florida's heat and moisture. We prep the surface carefully — sanding, cleaning, and correcting any damage — before applying a fresh finish that brings the grain and warmth back. The work is done with attention to how wood moves and responds, so the finish holds up well season after season.

Exterior Door Restoration

Exterior Door Restoration

When a door has years of wear, fading, or neglect, a full restoration is the right approach. We assess the door's condition, address structural and surface issues, and work through a complete refinishing process. The goal is to return it to a state that matches — or improves — what it looked like when it was new.

Door Rust Removal & Surface Preparation

Door Rust Removal & Surface Preparation

Rust is the enemy of any iron door, and it gets worse the longer it's ignored. We remove rust manually and mechanically, treating deep corrosion at the source before any primer or paint goes on. Surface preparation is the most important step in refinishing — it's where long-lasting results are built or lost.

Custom Door Painting & Faux Finishes

Custom Door Painting & Faux Finishes

Not every door needs to be black. We offer a range of custom paint finishes and specialty looks, including textures and tones that match the architecture and style of the home. Every finish is chosen and applied based on what the door needs and what the homeowner wants to see when they pull into their driveway.

Copper Faux Finish Application

Copper Faux Finish Application

A copper faux finish adds depth and character that a standard painted door simply cannot replicate. We apply this by hand using a layered technique that creates a realistic, high-end metal appearance. It's a popular choice for homes in Naples and Coral Gables where the entryway is a design feature, not just a functional element.

HVLP Spray Finish Coating

HVLP Spray Finish Coating

We use professional HVLP spray systems on every project — the same equipment used in high-end automotive and furniture finishing. This produces a smooth, even coat with no brush marks, roller texture, or uneven buildup. The finish looks cleaner, cures harder, and holds up better than anything applied with a brush and roller.

Garage Door Refinishing

Garage Door Refinishing

Garage doors cover a large portion of a home's front face, and a faded or peeling garage door pulls down the entire look of the property. We refinish garage doors using the same methodical process as entry doors — proper prep, quality primer, and a durable topcoat that stands up to daily use and direct sun exposure.

Protective Clear Coat Application

Protective Clear Coat Application

A quality topcoat is what keeps a refinish looking good for years instead of months. We apply a protective clear coat that seals the finish against UV damage, moisture, and rust. This is the final step in our process, and it's what separates a job that holds up from one that starts peeling again before the year is out.
