Fairfax questions
Do you repair garage doors in Fairfax?
Yes. Chen Garage Door reaches Fairfax from 1020 B St in San Rafael in about 8 minutes without traffic, a near-straight run on Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. We are open 24 hours, springs start from $225 and a roller set from $170. The quote visit is free.
My garage is under the house. Does that change the job?
Sometimes. Many Fairfax garages were cut into the slope or tucked under the house, and a tight ceiling can call for low-headroom track, a different drum or a different opener mount. We look at the ceiling at the quote visit and give you one price before we start.
Why does an old Fairfax door bind?
An opening from the 1930s on a hillside lot has had ninety years to go out of square, and the door is the first thing in the house to show it. On these houses the frame is usually what moved, so the fix is often fitting and adjustment.
Do you go past Fairfax into West Marin?
Over White's Hill the roads get long: Bolinas is under ten miles away as the crow flies and 26 miles by road. Call and we'll tell you the earliest time we can be there.
