What affects the price

When you call to get your sliding door fixed, the final bill depends on a few specific things. We look at the condition of the rollers, the state of the track, and whether the lock or handle assembly needs a full replacement. If the door has jumped off the track or the glass has a seal failure, that changes the labor required. We keep things transparent, so exact pricing is confirmed free on the call.
