Sliding Glass Door Repair in Houston, TX

Most Sliding Doors Do Not Need Replacing

A door that has become a two-handed shove is almost always a roller problem, not a door problem. Rollers wear flat, tracks fill with grit, and the whole thing starts dragging. Replacing the rollers and cleaning or capping the track brings it back to a one-finger slide for a fraction of what a new door costs.

We have been doing glass work in Houston for 20 years, and we will tell you when a repair is the right call and when it is not. If the frame is bent or corroded past saving, you will hear that instead of paying for a fix that lasts a month.

Foggy Glass, Before and After

A failed seal cannot be cleaned out, because the moisture is sealed inside the unit. Replacing the glass is the only fix that lasts. Here is one of ours.

Repair or Replace?

Repair is usually the answer when the door sticks, has come off its track, will not lock, has one cracked panel, or has gone foggy. All of those are component failures on a frame that is still sound.

Replacement makes more sense when the frame itself is bent, corroded, or racked out of square, or when the door is single-pane and you want the energy saving of an insulated unit. At that point new rollers just move the problem around.

We look at the door before quoting either way. If you only need the glass changed, see glass replacement, and if the patio screen door needs attention too, we handle screen repair on the same visit.
