Unhappy Door track repair

I had the rollers replaced on our patio sliding glass door, but the problem is the track needs to be repaired. The roller guy doesn't do it.

Looking for recommendations?

You can try calling home warranty to see who the original installer was and call them to see if they are interested, otherwise I would suggest calling some of the house renovation services. I have never heard of the tack wearing out, so I have no specific advice on this.

The only way a track would need to be repaired is if it has severe damage which would make me wonder if it will happen again with a new track. Rollers jumping the track? Foundation failure? Do you have a pic of problem area?

They make repair track that goes over track with new one? My patio sliding door only has one track. I replace my 20 plus year old rollers cause the rollers stopped rolling and was sliding. The roller height adjustment was corroded and locked up plus years of dirt caked in. The lower sliding door track was fine after I cleaned it up.

Depending you your style something like this.
