In short. A door that shuts badly or a window with play is easier to sort out before the first cold snap. In Sale, Adom (adom.ma) and the AdomApp app (adomapp.com) connect you with a professional for carpentry and furniture repair: free personalised quote, payment after the service.
1. Walk the house with an open hand
On a windy or rainy day, run your palm along frames, door bottoms and window edges. A draught is felt at once. Go room by room, including the front door, the balcony door and any shutters.
The rainy season in Sale runs from October to March, so it pays to have done this round before it begins.
2. Write down what sticks, rubs or no longer closes
A door scraping the floor, a window that will not lock, a sash that no longer meets its frame: put it on paper. Look at the wood too (a crack, a soft patch, a dark mark) and at the seals and hardware (hinges, handles, window bolts). Record what you see without taking anything apart.
3. Photograph before you describe
One wide shot of the frame, one close-up of the fault, one of the hardware. They save a long explanation. Add the material (wood, aluminium, PVC) if you know it, and say whether the fault is old or new.
4. Decide: repair or replace
A tired hinge, a worn seal or a sash that has shifted can be put right by a repair. A frame damaged along its length, or wood eaten away deep down, may need replacing. That is for the professional to judge after seeing it: do not decide from a photo alone, and be wary of a quote that does not say what will be done.
The same goes for furniture in the home: a jammed drawer, a wardrobe door that sags or a wobbly leg falls under the same carpentry and furniture repair service.
5. Describe the job and compare
Redouane, an imagined case, has noted three windows and the balcony door. He opens the carpentry and furniture repair page, lists each opening with its fault, gives the floor and the access, then receives proposals. He compares what each one plans for every opening. Adom connects people and does not employ anyone: he picks the person. No price is announced for this service: it is a free personalised quote on AdomApp.
If you commute towards Rabat (Sale is its dormitory town, with many daily commutes), say in the request when you can be reached for the visit.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find a window that lets air through?
Run your hand along the frame and the edges of the sash in windy weather. A draught can be felt, and a window that does not lock well is a clue.
Is it better to repair or replace a door?
It depends on the state of the frame and the wood. A professional decides after examining it, and the quote should state what will be repaired or replaced.
What should I photograph for the request?
The whole frame, the fault up close and the hardware. State the material if you know it.
Does the service cover furniture too?
Yes: a jammed drawer, a sagging wardrobe door or a wobbly leg all come under carpentry and furniture repair.
How is the price set?
It is a free personalised quote on AdomApp, based on the openings described. Payment is made after the service.
