    Leaky shower door water damage worn seal

    My Shower Door Leaks — What's Wrong in Charlotte?

    • Worn or Cracked Bottom Sweep — The rubber strip along the bottom edge that seals against the threshold. It dries out and cracks, letting water run out. A cheap, fast fix.
    • Damaged or Missing Caulk — The seal between the frame and the shower wall or tub. Old caulk pulls away and water sneaks through.
    • Out-of-Plumb Door — If the door doesn't hang straight, it won't seal at the bottom. Common in older Charlotte homes with settled floors.
    • Clogged or Damaged Track — Hair, soap scum, and mineral buildup block the drain holes in sliding tracks, causing overflow.

    Why Does My Sliding Shower Door Stick or Jump Off Track?

    • Worn Rollers — The wheels grind down, the door drags, and eventually it derails. We replace rollers with new ones matched to your door.
    • Bent or Corroded Track — Michigan's hard water and humidity corrode aluminum tracks. A bent track catches the rollers and makes the door stick.
    • Misaligned Panels — If the door was bumped or the house settled, the panels drift out of alignment and bind against each other.
    • Broken Guide Pins — Small plastic guides at the bottom keep the door centered in the track. When they snap, the door wobbles and jumps.

    Call 517-543-2760.

    Do You Install New Shower Doors in Charlotte?

    • Sliding Doors — The classic choice for tubs and alcoves. Panels slide on a track, saving space.
    • Pivot Doors — A single panel that swings open on a pivot hinge. Clean, modern, great for walk-in showers.
    • Hinged Doors — Like a regular door, swinging on two or three hinges. Opens fully, ideal for larger openings.
    • Framed, Semi-Frameless & Frameless — Whatever your budget and style, from classic aluminum frames to sleek full glass.

    Can You Repair a Frameless Glass Door Hinge?

    • Hinge Failure — Frameless doors hang their entire weight on hinges drilled into the glass. If a hinge loosens, sags, or the glass pulls away, the door won't close right.
    • Our Fix — We realign and re-tighten hinges, and replace worn gaskets and hardware.
    • Safety First — Because the glass is tempered, we handle all hinge work carefully to protect the panel.

    Should I Repair or Replace My Shower Door in Charlotte?

    • Repair Makes Sense — When the rollers, sweep, hinge, or track are worn and the glass is still clear.
    • Replace Makes Sense — When the glass is scratched, etched, or permanently cloudy — or when you want a style upgrade from framed to frameless.
    • Honest Assessment — We'll look at your door and tell you which route saves you money. No pressure either way.

    How Do I Clean and Maintain My Shower Door?

    A little maintenance keeps a shower door working for years. Here’s what we tell Charlotte homeowners:

    Squeegee after every shower — Thirty seconds with a squeegee prevents soap scum and hard-water spots from building up.

    Clean the track monthly — Hair, soap, and mineral deposits clog the drain holes and make the door stick. A soft brush and mild cleaner keeps it sliding.

    Wipe down the hardware — Hinges, rollers, and handles stay smooth with a quick wipe and occasional light lubricant.

    Re-caulk when it cracks — The seal around the frame wears out. Fresh caulk keeps water where it belongs.

    Charlotte’s hard water makes etching worse, so a coated glass treatment is worth it. We can apply one during any service call.

    Shower Doors and Charlotte Hard Water

    • Hard Water — Charlotte sits on the Battle Creek River watershed — water is high in calcium and magnesium.
    • Etching & Buildup — Mineral content etches glass over time and clogs shower door tracks with buildup.
    • The Real Cause — If your door is sticking, it may not be the hardware — it may be mineral crust in the track.
    • Our Fix — We clean tracks, replace corroded rollers, and recommend glass treatments that resist etching.
