What We Actually Do
We work on residential garage doors: torsion and extension springs, cables, rollers, tracks, panels, and openers. A lot of the calls we take are spring replacements, because a broken torsion spring is the single most common reason a door won't move at all. We also handle bent track from a car backing into it wrong, worn rollers that have started grinding, and openers that run but won't talk to the remote or the wall button anymore. What we don't do is new construction framing or structural garage work - if the header or the opening itself needs rebuilding, that's a job for a general contractor, and we'll tell you that straight instead of taking the work anyway. On the repair side, if a door is old enough and beat up enough that a fix would just be the first of several, we'll say so and talk replacement instead of stacking repairs on a door that's done.
Where We Work
Our shop sits on NW 42nd Avenue, close enough to Little Havana, Allapattah, and Edgewater that most of our calls are within a few miles. We also get regular jobs out toward Brownsville and Gladeview, both four to five miles off, and into Miami Springs and North Bay Village at six miles. Farther out we cover Coral Gables, South Miami, Miami Shores, and Doral, and we go as far as Kendall and Miami Lakes on the south and northwest ends of the area. A lot of the housing stock we work on across these neighborhoods was built between 1953 and 2005, with most of it dating to the 1960s and 70s - which matters, because a door and opener from that era often runs on hardware nobody makes parts for anymore, and half the job is figuring out what will actually fit before we quote it.
