Garage door questions, answered for Streamwood

Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Streamwood: with four distinct seasons of muggy summers and freezing and humid summers that seize hinges and rollers, freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, and winter snow and ice load on doors and tracks, the common failure modes are ice- and snow-jammed tracks, cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, and loosened hardware from wide seasonal swings. Our Streamwood trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.

In Streamwood it is usually ice- and snow-jammed tracks — and because the area has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, we also see a lot of cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.

The median Streamwood home dates to 1980, with 49% of the stock built before 1980 — a real mix of original and already-replaced doors, which is why we quote repair-versus-replace honestly on every call.
