Garage door questions, answered for Katy

In Katy it is usually corroded springs and cables in the humid air — 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 swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.

We cover Williamsburg Hamlet, Williamsburg Colony and Williams Chase — including ZIPs 77493, 77494, 77491. If you are anywhere in Katy, you are in our service area — call (213) 221-2882 and we will confirm the next available window.

The median Katy home dates to 2003, with 22% 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.

Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Katy: with warm and high year-round humidity that rusts springs, cables, and fasteners, damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, and frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals, the common failure modes are corroded springs and cables in the humid air, swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, and pitted galvanized hardware on older doors. Our Katy trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.
