The repair calls from Marathahalli follow the housing. Many flats here were fitted out cheaply and quickly when the buildings went up. So the parts that wear out have now worn out. Sliding shower doors off their track. Hinges rusted through. And office doors that have dropped and no longer shut.
Sliding doors, and why they come off
A sliding shower door runs on rollers in a track. When it starts to catch, jump or come off, it is nearly always the rollers or the track. Sometimes the track was never set level when it went in.
We check the level before we re-hang anything. Put a door back on a track that is not level and it will drift open by itself, and come off again within months.
When rollers or a track need changing, we fit ones made for the weight of the door. We do not fit the lightest ones that will just about go on.
What is worth repairing and what is not
If the glass is sound and only the hinges, rollers, seals or handle have gone, that is a real repair. It costs a small part of a new enclosure.
Sometimes the frame has rusted, the seals have gone hard and the silicone has failed. Fixing one of the three then lasts a few months. No more than that. Then you pay for the visit twice.
Send a photo of the door edge and the bottom track. That usually tells us which one you have before anyone travels, and it means the right parts are on the van the first time.
How the job works
- Tell us about the jobSend a few photos, rough sizes and what you need. Use WhatsApp or the form. For a repair, a short video of the door moving helps a lot.
- We call you backUsually the same day. Where we can, we give you a rough price on the call. Then you know if a visit is worth your time.
- We come and measureWe measure the opening. We also check the walls, floor, ceiling and the way in. Your glass is made to these final sizes, so they must be right.
- You get a written priceIt shows the glass, the fittings and the fitting work as separate lines. If anything about the job changes, we tell you before we go ahead.
- We make it and fit itYou approve the price and pay the advance. Then we make your glass. Our team delivers it, fits it, checks the doors line up and clears the site.
