Frequently Asked Questions
Does homeowner's insurance cover garage door storm damage?
Usually yes — most HO-3 policies cover storm damage including hail and wind. You'll need to pay your deductible. We provide a detailed written estimate and damage documentation to support your claim.
When should I replace vs repair after storm damage?
If more than 2–3 panels are damaged, or if the structural frame is bent, full replacement is typically more economical — and often fully covered by insurance. Single or double panel damage is usually repairable.
What if my door is stuck open after a storm?
Call us immediately — this is a security emergency. We'll dispatch same-day or after-hours to get your home secured. Even a temporary fix to close and latch the door is a priority.
Can you help document damage for my insurance claim?
Yes — we provide a written assessment, itemized repair/replacement estimate, and photos documenting the storm damage. Most adjusters work directly with us on larger claims.
My door looks fine but acts different since the storm. Should I have it checked?
Yes — subtle track misalignment and loose hardware can result from wind stress without obvious visible damage. A $75 inspection call is worth it to catch problems before they become failures.
