Garage door questions, answered for Cambridge

The call we get most in Cambridge is storm-driven debris and water in the tracks. Cambridge has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, so rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.

Census data puts 57% of Cambridge homes at pre-1980 construction (median build year 1971) — old enough that many garages still run their original springs, opener, and seals, all long past rated life.

Yes. Cambridge lies within Dorchester County, in Maryland, and we work the whole footprint: Cambridge plus nearby Algonquin, Trappe, Hurlock, and Easton. Same licensed, insured crews and 10-year workmanship guarantee county-wide.

Cambridge sits in a warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware. That is hard on a door — summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, and mildew and moisture on shaded, north-facing doors all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, and mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors. We size springs and seals for Maryland's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
