If you're seeing more bugs, lizards, or even small critters near your sliding door, the entry point is almost always a specific, fixable gap, not a lost cause. Here's where to look.
Close the door at night and look for light coming through around the edges or bottom, that's your entry point. It's almost always one of a few specific spots, not the whole door.
We replace worn weatherstripping and bottom sweeps, repair or re-screen a damaged screen door, and correct alignment issues so the door seals flush all the way around.
This is a symptom with multiple possible causes, weatherstripping, screen damage, or a gap, rather than a single specific mechanical failure.
Don't just spray more pesticide as the fix, without sealing the actual entry point, bugs keep finding the same gap.
Not applicable, but delaying the fix means the problem continues and can worsen with seasonal pest activity.
Cost: $120-$280 depending on whether it's weatherstripping, screen, or alignment.
Time: 30-90 minutes depending on the cause.
Repair, addressing whichever specific seal or screen failure is letting bugs through.
Florida's year-round insect activity makes even a small gap a persistent, noticeable problem here.
Close the door at night and look for light coming through around the edges or bottom, that's usually the spot.
Not always, weatherstripping gaps and misalignment let bugs in even with an intact screen.
