We repair garage doors in Kemptville and the surrounding North Grenville area: broken springs, cables, doors off track, openers, sensors and weather seals. We also do tune-ups, and we supply new Garaga doors.
Mokhtaar, the owner, does the work himself, from the first look to the final test. We're based in Ottawa and make the drive south on Highway 416 for Kemptville jobs.
Kemptville has an older core along Kemptville Creek, with homes built over a long stretch of time. As Highway 416 made the drive into Ottawa quicker, a lot of new housing went in around the town, including Equinelle and other newer subdivisions.
Those newer homes mostly came with insulated steel doors, torsion springs and builder-grade openers. They worked well for the first several years. Now many are reaching the point where the first set of springs, the original rollers and the original opener all need attention around the same time.
In the older part of town, it's more common to see single-car garages, older wood or steel doors, and openers that have been swapped out piece by piece over the years.
Outside the town itself, North Grenville is mostly rural. Plenty of properties have a detached garage or a shop building with a wider or taller door than a standard house garage. Those doors carry more weight, so the springs need to be sized for it. Undersized springs leave the opener doing the lifting, and the opener wears out early.
Gravel driveways and open fields add grit and wind. Grit collects in the bottom seal and the lower track, and wind pushes the door against its stops. We check both, along with rust on the bottom brackets, which is where cables are most likely to fail on a country garage.
For newer homes in town, the most common call is a broken spring. There's a loud bang from the garage, and then the door won't lift, or the opener raises it a few inches and stops. Don't try to force it. Call us, and we'll replace the springs as a pair so they wear evenly.
Many Kemptville builder doors are on their first set of springs. We replace both and balance the door.
