Common jobs
Most of the calls we get trace back to the same thing: hardware that was installed when the house was built, and the house was probably built somewhere between 1981 and 2000.
That's the window for most of the stock across the six main areas we cover, and it means a lot of torsion springs, rollers, and openers that are original to the garage, not replaced. Springs sag and snap after enough cycles. Rollers wear grooves into the track.
Openers from that era are still running on logic boards that weren't built for twenty-plus years of Eastern Washington temperature swings. We work on broken springs, cables that have frayed through, panels dented from a backed-into-the-door moment, tracks knocked out of alignment, and openers that grind, stall, or quit responding to the remote.
We also handle full door and opener replacement when a repair doesn't make sense anymore - a door with three bent panels and a dead spring is usually a replacement job, not a patch job. We don't do new home construction installs; that's a different trade with different lead times and we'd rather tell you that up front than take a job we're not set up for.
Get in touch
Call us at (509) 204-9599. Our shop is at 515 N Neel St, Kennewick, WA 99336, and that's where the trucks run out of each morning.
If your spring just went or your door won't close, that's the kind of call that gets handled first. If you're planning ahead - replacing an opener before it fully dies, or swapping a door before winter - mention that when you call so we can plan the visit without rushing it.
Service area
We're based in Kennewick and most of our jobs are close by: West Pasco is about 4 miles out, Riverview sits roughly 4 miles to the north-northeast, and Pasco is about 5 miles. Finley is around 7 miles, Burbank about 9, West Richland roughly 13, and Benton City about 15 miles out at the edge of where we'll drive for a job.
The area we cover runs about 34,352 households total, with roughly 19,085 of those being owner-occupied houses - the kind with an actual garage door to maintain, not a shared structure. That's a lot of driveways, and a lot of doors built in the same stretch of years, which is part of why we see the same handful of failures over and over instead of something new every call.
Our team
This is a cold-moderate climate - not the brutal winters you'd get further north or east, but enough freeze-thaw cycling that steel hardware and nylon rollers take a beating over the years.
We work with that in mind: the fix we put in has to hold up through another round of cold mornings, not just get the door moving again today.
Household income in this area runs a median of $87,022, which tells us something about what people expect from a repair - a straight answer on cost before we start, and a job that's done right the first time rather than a cheap patch that calls us back in six months.
We're not the cheapest option in town and we won't pretend to be. We'll tell you plainly when a repair is the better call and when it isn't, and we'll say so even when the bigger job would pay us more.
Questions
No. We handle repair and replacement on existing homes, which is most of what this area has given the 1981-2000 building window. New construction installs run on different schedules and different trades, so we'd rather point you elsewhere than take a job outside our lane.
Our regular range runs from West Pasco and Riverview close in, out through Pasco, Finley, and Burbank, to West Richland and Benton City at the far edge. Call with your address and we'll tell you straight whether it's in range.
Depends on the failure. A dead capacitor or a worn gear is often a fair repair. A board that's failing intermittently on a unit that old sometimes costs more to chase down than to replace outright - we'll tell you which situation you're in before we start charging for diagnosis.
