We cover La Verne from Old Town and the streets around Bonita and D Street to the tracts along Foothill, White and Baseline, and up into the north La Verne hillside toward Live Oak and Marshall Canyon. We are often able to attend the same day and otherwise book you the next morning. Diagnosis and estimates are free, and we work 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, seven days a week.
La Verne has a good deal of genuinely old housing around Old Town and the streets near the university, and with it a lot of original timber-framed garages. On those, the door and its hardware are often not the underlying fault at all. The vertical track is bolted to a wooden jamb that has spent a century absorbing damp and sun, and when that timber softens the lags work loose, the track shifts under load and the door starts binding or jumping. Tightening the same screws into the same soft wood only buys a few weeks. The proper fix is to make the jamb and header sound again and mount to solid material, and it is not usually a big job if it is caught before something lets go. In the newer hillside tracts north of Foothill the work is more conventional, mostly heavy double doors on tired springs and openers reaching the end of their life.
We remount and realign track on sound material, replace springs, cables, rollers, hinges and damaged track, reset off-track doors, and repair or replace openers, including reinforcing the header mounting where an old structure will not hold one. Photo-eye safety sensors are fitted where they are missing. Every visit ends with a balance test and a reverse test. Licensed and insured, California license #1149841.
Old garage or new tract, it usually comes down to one of these. Diagnosis is free and the common parts are on the truck:
