Great job, thank you.
I have never purchased an "Angie's List" deal before, but thought I'd try it when one was offered for sliding glass door repair. I purchased it online. I was then asked to provide three dates that I would be available for the work to be done. Immediately after I chose my dates I received a response and a date and time was scheduled. I thought I would have to wait forever, but the appointment was scheduled for three days after I purchased the deal. Everything was so easy and fast, I was just waiting for something to go wrong. But, I am happy to say NOTHING WENT WRONG! Marco was well prepared from the start. He brought all his tools and supplies in and accessed the problem with my door and why it wasn't sliding well. He took the frame off, changed the wheels and cleaned the track. He was so polite, explained why the problem happened in the first place and gave me recommendations on how to prevent the same problem from occuring in the future. I would not hesitate to use this company again and highly recommend it to anyone who needs work done on their sliding door. My door now opens so easy, Marco is my miracle worker. Thank you!
Marco showed up on time, and spent several hours cleaning, repainting, and replacing bearings and the slider screen, as well as resealing around the slider frame. I had thought the door needing replacing, but it now glides with a touch and looks like new. I HIGHLY recommend Marco Pellim.

Headed over to Angie's List and started the search. Only took about 10 seconds to find Florida Xtreme, as they were the first to actually specify "wheels replacement" in the description of their sevices. I'm sure all the shops do wheels,but seeing it in print just jumped out at me. Looked at the comments, read the reviews, made the call, and left a message Friday afternoon.
Marco Pellim, the owner, called back, listened to my problem and made an 8:30 AM appointment for Monday.
Got a courtesy call from Marco Monday morning, letting me know he would be a little late and apologizing. It was something he had no control over, and it was no problem.
He arrived in his traveling workshop with all the tools and parts to repair just about any slider with any type of problem.
After removing the door, he examined it, as well as the door frame and the track.
He said every thing looked ok and just the wheel assemblies needed replacing. He showed me a plastic wheel and a more expensive stainless wheel. Marco pointed out that stainless was an option that waterfront homes or houses without a covered patio should choose but was not necessary in my case. Big savings for me.
He went to work on the door and it was a pleasure watching a professional doing a methodical job. There were no trips back to the van for another tool or missing piece. Once he started, evrything went smoothly even though there were some unexpected issues due to the age of the door and the treatment it had suffered at my hands.
With the wheels installed, Marco went to work with cleaning and degreasing fluids and a lot of paper towels making sure the door stiles and rails and the tracks and frame were perfectly clean.
He placed the door in the frame, didn't quite like what he saw, pulled the door out, made some adjusments, re-installed it, adjusted the wheel height, and the frame mounted door lock, and that was it.
What had been taking two hands to slide, now took a single finger.
My wife, a visiting neighbor, and I, gave him a standing ovation.
So, I figure, let me ask about him about taking a look at some of the 36 year old jalouise windows that had various problems.
The short version goes like this: The slider he repaired took 45 minutes. The windows, which he had no idea he would be looking at , consumed 2 hours. He fixed one, told me how to fix one, gave me a couple parts, and made some suggestions.
I know time is money, and I finally said he'd spent enough time and I'm sure he had other appointments. I thanked him for his time and efforts and insisted he had done more than enough.
Marco Pellim is not someone to leave a job unless it's 100% done. The slider was absolutely perfect, better than I thought possible. The windows, which I had only wanted him to look at, and tell me if they could be fixed, so I could make another appointment had caught his attention. Being the kind of guy who puts goodwill ahead of money he was nice enough to check the windows and then couldn't resist trying to help.
The topper was when I asked him if he preferred credit card or check. When he said a check would be fine, I asked how much to make it out for, and he said, "A hundred and fifty; that's what I quoted you."
"What about the work on the windows?" I asked.
"I didn't fix the problems, so there's no charge for that."
So I wrote the check for $200 and handed it to him.
He looked at it and went to hand it back, but I was faster and wouldn't let him get close enough.
Marco went way above what he contracted for. He's infinitely knowledgeable in the ways of patio door repair, replacement and adjustment. Has a wealth of knowledge about related things like window repair and impact window replacement.
I recommend calling Marco for unbeatable service with a smile.
