Why repair your sliding door in Stratford?
Most sliding door problems come down to a handful of worn parts, and a repair is often far cheaper than a new door:
If a sliding door at your Stratford home has started to drag, clean the bottom track thoroughly before booking anything, as grit alone can cause the problem.
Where an older sliding door in Stratford has several faults at once, such as misted glass, worn rollers and a failing lock, compare the total repair cost with a replacement before deciding.
- Misted sealed units can usually be replaced individually with new safety glass units, restoring the view and the insulation of that panel.
- Quoting from photos and a short video means many repairs can be priced without a visit, saving time and the diagnostic visit charge for straightforward jobs.
- Repairing or refurbishing a damaged track removes the dips and burrs that make rollers jump, which stops a panel coming off its track.

From photos to fixed door in Stratford
Send photos or a short video of the fault and we tell you the likely repair and cost before anyone visits. We then book a repair visit in the E15 district at a time that suits you; most repairs are completed in a single visit, unless parts need ordering or a new glass unit must be made.
Do you need approval in Stratford?
Repairs are generally outside the Building Regulations in England. Any replacement glass we fit in a door is safety glazing, in line with Approved Document K, and if the door needs replacing rather than repairing, the controlled-fitting rules apply.
What we can repair
- Lock and gearbox replacement. A new mechanism when the handle turns but the door will not lock.
- Roller replacement. New rollers for each sliding panel, restoring a smooth, quiet action.
- Track repair or refurbishment. Repairing damaged track sections, or fitting a new track cover where the system allows.
Questions about sliding door repairs in Stratford
Is there a call-out charge in Stratford?
Many faults can be priced from photos or a short video, so a visit is not always needed. If we need to see the door first, a diagnostic visit costs £95 inc VAT, and we confirm it before we attend. Repair prices include the visit to carry out the repair.
Why won't my sliding door lock?
A sliding door that will not lock usually has a failed lock gearbox, a worn or broken keep, or a panel that has dropped so the hooks no longer line up with the frame. Forcing the handle can make it worse. Photos of the handle, the lock edge and the frame where the hooks engage usually show which part has failed.
Can a sliding door track be repaired?
A damaged sliding door track can often be repaired or refurbished, depending on the door and how badly the track is worn. On some systems a replacement track cover can be fitted over a worn track, and on others a damaged section can be repaired. If the track is part of a frame that is failing more widely, replacement may be the better option.
Is there a free survey for sliding door repairs?
No, our free survey applies to new doors and replacements only. Repairs are quoted from photos and a short video you send us, or after a diagnostic visit where photos are not enough. If a visit is needed, the diagnostic visit costs £95 inc VAT and is confirmed before we attend, so you know where you stand.
