Weatherstripping & Seal Replacement in Atlanta
Drafts and water around a sliding door are usually a seal problem, not a glass problem. Weatherstripping hardens, compresses, and tears over years of Atlanta heat and humidity, leaving gaps the door can't close.
The problem
What we see and how we fix it
We find the actual gap — often at the interlock or along the meeting rail — and replace the seals that restore a tight closure.
Signs you need this
When to call us
- A draft you can feel along the door edge
- Water intrusion at the threshold after rain
- Higher energy bills and a room that won't hold temperature
- Visibly cracked, flattened, or missing weatherstrip
Our process
How the visit goes
Locate the real gap along the door and interlock
Check whether alignment is part of the leak
Replace hardened or torn weatherstripping and seals
Correct panel alignment where it affects the seal
Confirm a tight, even closure
Repair or replace? Sealing is a maintenance repair, not a replacement. Fresh weatherstrip and correct alignment usually solve drafts and minor water intrusion.
Questions
Weatherstripping & Seal Replacement FAQs
Why is my sliding door drafty even when closed?
The weatherstrip has hardened or the panel is out of square, so it can't seal. Replacing the seal — and aligning the door — closes the gap.
Is water in the track always a seal problem?
Not always. Thresholds are designed to drain, so we also check that weep paths aren't blocked.
Can new seals lower my energy bills?
Closing an air gap around a large glass door helps a room hold temperature more comfortably.
