Is the sliding door to your backyard hard to push open, or has the big window in your living room turned foggy? In Saddle Rock, those are two of the problems you are most likely to run into, and neither one usually means buying new. A worn roller, a tired seal or a stiff lock can most often be repaired.

If you live in one of the village’s 1950s ranches

Saddle Rock was built out as a planned village in the 1950s, and about half of its homes date from that decade. Many began as one-floor ranch houses, placed to make the most of the water and skyline views. A house like that may have a few big openings. Think of a wide picture window, a sliding glass door to the patio, or a long run of windows across the back.

After decades of use, here is what usually gives out:

  • Rollers under a sliding door wear flat, and the door grinds or sticks.
  • The seal around a double pane window fails, and the glass clouds up.
  • A latch or lock stops catching, so the door or window will not stay shut.
These are repairs to a part, not to the whole house. Ask us to come out and we will show you what needs work.

If your windows look out over Little Neck Bay

Your view is the reason many homes here sit where they do. The same open water can send wind and salt straight at your glass. Over time, salt can eat at screen frames, hinges and lock parts. Wind off the bay can also press rain against the sills and door bottoms on that side of the house.

Part of the village lies in federal flood zones, including a high hazard zone along the shore where storm waves can reach. After a nor’easter, press on the sill under your bay-side windows. If it feels soft or stays wet for days, call us before the rot spreads.

If a storm has already done damage

After a big storm, walk around your house and look at your storm doors, screens and sliders. A bent storm door, a torn screen or a slider that jumped its track can usually be fixed. Call us and we will get them back to working order.

Call Village Hall on Masefield Way first

Saddle Rock is its own village, with its own Village Hall on Masefield Way. Before you replace any windows or doors, call Village Hall and ask what permits you need. We do not give legal advice, and we cannot speak for the village. A repair of what you already have is often the simplest place to start. Your house keeps its original style, and it works and looks better.

FAQ

Questions from Saddle Rock homeowners

My sliding glass door is so hard to open. Do I need a new one?

Probably not. Worn rollers and a dirty or bent track are the most common causes. We replace the rollers, clean and straighten the track, and the door should slide easily again.

Fog between the panes of my picture window will not wipe off. Can that be fixed?

Often, yes. It means the seal around the double pane glass has worn out and let moisture in. We can fit new sealed glass into the frame you already have.

The wind off the bay tore my screens. Can you repair them?

Yes. We can rescreen a frame or make a new frame if the old one is bent or corroded.

My storm door will not close by itself anymore. What is wrong?

The closer, the arm that pulls the door shut, has likely worn out or come loose. It can be adjusted or replaced on its own, so you keep the door.

Do you work in Kings Point, Great Neck, Little Neck and Douglaston?

Yes. We serve the towns around Saddle Rock, including Kings Point, Great Neck, Little Neck and Douglaston.
