Repair or replace? Why repair usually wins

Homeowners are often told to replace an entire sliding door when a targeted repair would do. Here's how the two compare for most doors we see in Northeast Florida:

ConsiderationProfessional RepairFull Replacement

Time to completeOften same dayDays to weeks
Disruption to your homeMinimalSignificant
Keeps your existing frameYesNo
Best when…Rollers, track, glass or hardware are wornThe frame is rotted or beyond repair

We'll always give you our honest recommendation. If a repair will get you years of smooth operation, that's what we'll suggest. If replacement truly is the smarter long-term choice, we'll tell you that too — and we install as well.
