Used wood filler to fix gap between door frame and floor from overcut door jamb and casing after new tile floor installation.
After installing new tile, one of the door frames ended up being overcut at the bottom. This created a significant gap between the frame and the floor that was a bit too big to fill with just caulk.
After a lot of searching and not finding very many tried and true solutions, I decided on the wood filler and paint approach. I’m quite happy with the results and it was fairly easy to do with limited experience.
I thought I’d share my attempt at this fix in case it could be helpful to anyone else frantically searching through all the possible options and results for filling that gap yourself.
Main Supplies Used:
Frost King
Poly Foam Caulk Saver
½” Diameter x 20’ Long
-Used to fill the open area inside gap and provide some sort of backing to the wood filler.
DAP
Plastic Wood
Professional Wood Filler
White 4 oz. Can
-A little hard to work with and dried really fast.
Dremel Multi-Max
With Dremel Sanding Attachment
-Very useful.
Plastic (?) material
-To protect the floor and maintain the new smaller gap.
