Sliding door FAQs

Can a sliding glass door be repaired instead of replaced?
In most Broward homes yes. Doors that stick, grind or jump the track usually need new rollers and a track repair, not a new door. We tell you when a repair is the right call and when replacement is the better long-term option.
How long does a typical sliding door repair take?
A standard roller and track service on a two-panel door is usually completed in a single visit. Glass panels, custom hardware, or oversized doors may require ordering parts, and we confirm timing with you before any work begins.
Do you repair sliding screen doors too?
Yes. We rescreen, re-square and re-wheel sliding screen doors, and we replace screen frames when the frame itself is bent beyond a reliable repair.
My door came off the track — is that an emergency?
It can be a security concern because the door may not lock. Call the office and the assistant will check availability so we can get a technician out at the earliest opening.
Which parts of Broward do you cover?
Fort Lauderdale, Hollywood, Pembroke Pines, Davie, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Boca Raton, Oakland Park, Wilton Manors and nearby South Florida communities.
How do I get a price?
Open the assistant on any page and describe the door and the problem. It collects the details our dispatch team needs, checks calendar availability, and confirms next steps. You can also call (954) 708-6930.
