Garage door questions, answered for Addison

Addison 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, frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals, 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 swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors, sagging insulated panels softened by repeated heat and humidity, and moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms. We size springs and seals for Texas's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.

The call we get most in Addison is swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity. Addison has mostly suburban single-family homes with attached garages, alongside pockets of older in-town housing, so mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors turns up often too. We carry the common parts on the truck for a single-visit fix.

With a median Addison home built around 1994 (just 15% pre-1980), the doors here are relatively young, so maintenance and opener upgrades outweigh major rebuilds.
