Window Screen and Sliding Door Repair Cost in Martinez & Contra Costa County
What it costs to re-screen windows and screen doors and fix sticky patio sliders in Martinez and the East Bay, and what's a glass company's job.
Torn screens and sticky sliding doors are two of the most common small repairs in homes with patios and warm summers. They’re also two of the cheapest to fix, as long as you fix the right thing.
These are general ranges, not a quote. Parts and mesh are usually small extras.
Typical Prices
- Re-screen a standard window screen (frame in good shape): about $35–$75 each, less per screen when you have several
- Re-screen a screen door: about $75–$150
- Patio screen door repair or new rollers: about $75–$150
- Sliding glass door roller replacement and track cleaning: about $125–$250
- Sliding door latch or handle replacement: about $75–$150
Screens: Re-Screen or Replace?
If the frame is straight and the corners are tight, new mesh and spline is a quick, cheap repair. If the frame is bent, broken at the corners or corroded, a new screen is often better value. Pet-resistant and solar mesh cost more than standard fiberglass.
Sliding Doors That Stick or Fall Off
Most stuck sliders have a track full of grit and rollers that are worn or flat. Cleaning the track and replacing the rollers usually restores smooth motion. Photos of the roller or the door model help me find the right part.
If the door has dropped because the frame or floor has shifted, or the glass panel looks damaged, that’s a different job. Broken glass or fogged double-pane panels belong to a glass company.
What Affects the Price
Number of screens. A whole-house screen refresh is quicker per screen than a single trip.
Door type and rollers. Some sliding doors use parts that are easy to get. Others need a specific roller, and a trip to find it.
Condition of the track. A bent or worn track may mean new track or a new door.
Tip for Spring
If you wait until the first warm evening, every repair person is busy with the same job. Doing screens in early spring saves a scramble.
