Pitt Meadows Garage Door Installation and Replacement

Pitt Meadows sits low and flat between the Pitt and Fraser rivers. In winter, cold outflow winds blow across the open land, and clear nights bring frost and fog. In the rainy season, the ground stays wet for long stretches and garages stay damp.

Those conditions are hard on an old door. Seals freeze to the floor, springs break on cold mornings, and rollers wear in the damp. A new door with fresh springs, a good bottom seal and proper balance holds up much better. For an attached garage, an insulated door keeps the cold wind out and the space more usable through the winter.

Townhouses make up a large share of housing in Pitt Meadows, from older complexes near the centre to newer developments around Osprey Village and South Bonson. Many stratas control door style and opener changes.

If you're in a townhouse, ask your strata for approval and a copy of the rules before booking. We'll quote a door that matches them. Detached homes in North Pitt Meadows or on the edge of the farmland usually skip this step.

Many detached homes and townhouses here date from the 1970s to the 1990s and still have the doors and springs they were built with. If yours is still sound and parts are available, a repair is usually the better buy, and we'll say so.

Replacement starts to make sense when:

• the door is dented beyond a panel repair or panels aren't made any more
• wood is rotting, warped or sagging
• the garage is cold because the door has no insulation
• repair bills keep adding up

On install day the old door, springs and tracks come out and leave with us. The new door is hung and balanced, and your opener is reconnected or replaced. Most single and double doors are done in one visit of about half a day. Price depends on size, style, insulation, windows and hardware, and on whether the opener stays. We quote on site first, and we also work in Maple Ridge, Port Coquitlam, Coquitlam and Surrey.
