Signs You Need Threshold Repair

How to tell if your sliding door threshold is failing.

The threshold is the bottom piece of your sliding door frame. It's the part your door panel rides across. It also contains the weep system that drains water away from the track. After 10 to 15 years of foot traffic, weather exposure, and Florida's punishing rain, thresholds wear down. We see this constantly in homes across Port St. Lucie and Stuart, especially in communities built by GL Homes, Kolter, and Lennar in the mid-2000s.

Water Coming In During Rain

Water pools on the floor near the base of the door during storms. The threshold seal has failed.

!

Visible Wear on the Threshold

The surface is worn smooth, dented, or has cracks. Foot traffic and weather break down the material over time.

!

Bugs Getting In at the Bottom

Ants, roaches, and small lizards squeeze through gaps between the door panel and a worn threshold.

!

Drafts at Floor Level

You can feel warm air coming in at the base of the door. The threshold no longer creates a tight seal with the panel.

Why thresholds fail faster on the Treasure Coast

Florida gets an average of 54 inches of rain per year, and the Treasure Coast sits right in the heart of it. Heavy afternoon storms drive rain directly against your sliding door threshold. When the weep holes clog with dirt and debris, water backs up and sits against the seal. Over time, the aluminum oxidizes, the rubber gaskets crack, and water finds its way inside. We see this pattern in homes all over Jensen Beach and Hutchinson Island.

Our Process

How we repair your sliding door threshold.

Every threshold job starts with a full inspection. We need to see if you need a repair, a partial replacement, or a complete threshold swap.

01

Inspect the Threshold

We check the threshold surface, drain holes, gaskets, and the subfloor underneath. We also inspect the door panel's bottom rail to make sure it matches the threshold profile.

02

Clear the Drain System

We clean out all weep holes and drain channels. Clogged drains cause most water intrusion problems and are often the first thing we fix.

03

Repair or Replace

For minor wear, we resurface and reseal. For heavy damage, we remove the old threshold and install a new one matched to your door brand, whether it's PGT, Andersen, Milgard, or another manufacturer.

04

Seal and Test

We apply exterior-grade sealant, reinstall the door panel, adjust the rollers if needed, and water-test the entire assembly to confirm a dry seal.

Threshold repair vs. full door replacement

A new sliding door costs $1,200 to $4,500 installed. A threshold replacement costs $129 to $299. If the rest of your door is in good shape, replacing just the threshold saves you a lot of money. We'll always tell you honestly which route makes sense for your situation. Check our guide to common sliding door problems for help deciding.

Proper threshold alignment stops water intrusion

A misaligned threshold creates gaps that let water, insects, and outside air into your home. We adjust the threshold height and angle to create a tight seal against the door panel, then apply fresh weatherstripping and sealant to keep everything out where it belongs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Threshold repair questions we hear often.

How much does sliding door threshold repair cost? +
Threshold repair costs $129 to $299 on the Treasure Coast. Simple resurfacing and sealing starts at $129. Full threshold replacement runs $199 to $299 depending on door width and material. We confirm the exact price before starting any work.
How long does threshold repair take? +
Most threshold repairs take 45 to 90 minutes. Drain cleaning and resealing is closer to 45 minutes. Full threshold replacement on wider doors takes closer to 90 minutes. We complete the job in a single visit.
Why does water come in under my sliding door? +
The most common cause is a worn or damaged threshold. Over time the surface wears down, the drain holes clog, and the seal between the threshold and the door panel degrades. Florida's heavy rain makes this worse. Replacing the threshold and cleaning the drain system stops the water.
Can you replace just the threshold or do I need a new door? +
In most cases, just the threshold needs replacing. A threshold replacement costs $129 to $299, while a whole new sliding door costs $1,200 to $4,500. If the rest of your door is in good condition, a threshold swap is the smart and affordable fix.
Do you fix thresholds on impact-rated doors? +
Yes. Impact doors from PGT, CGI, and Andersen have specific threshold designs that must be maintained for code compliance. We install the correct replacement parts to keep your door's impact rating intact.
What causes sliding door thresholds to fail? +
Foot traffic, UV exposure, weather, and debris all wear down thresholds over time. In Florida, the combination of rain, humidity, and salt air corrodes aluminum thresholds and breaks down the waterproofing seal. We typically see threshold failure at 10 to 15 years on the Treasure Coast.
