Garage door questions, answered for Maquoketa

Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Maquoketa: with humid continental climate — hot and freeze-thaw cycles that crack seals and loosen hardware, road salt and snowmelt that corrode the lowest hardware, and humid summers that seize hinges and rollers, the common failure modes are doors frozen to the slab on cold mornings, openers straining against cold-thickened grease, humidity-swollen wood doors in summer, and corroded low brackets from winter slush. Our Maquoketa trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.

In Maquoketa it is usually doors frozen to the slab on cold mornings — and because the area has predominantly single-family homes with attached garages, plus a core of older in-town residences, we also see a lot of openers straining against cold-thickened grease. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.

About 73% of Maquoketa's housing predates 1980, with a median build year of 1963; on doors that age, worn springs, tired openers, and brittle weather seals are the norm rather than the exception.
