The Work We Take On
Most houses in Paradise went up between 1963 and 1990, with the median landing around 1976. That's a specific window, and it matters: a lot of these houses still carry their original torsion springs, steel tracks, and one-piece or sectional doors from the 1960s and 70s, spread across the ten named areas that make up this stretch of the ridge. We work on broken torsion and extension springs, worn rollers and cables, opener repair and replacement, bent or off-track panels, and full door swaps when a repair isn't worth chasing anymore.

The service area holds 21,161 households, 11,554 of them owner-occupied houses, and a good share of those are the same 1960s-70s stock. That's the door hardware we see on the truck most days: original tracks, older opener models, hardware nobody's made in decades.
Who Does the Work
The person who answers your call is the person who shows up, looks at the actual spring or track or opener in front of them, and tells you straight what it needs. There's no dispatch layer guessing at the problem before someone's eyes are on it. Given how much of the housing stock here dates to the 1963-1990 window, a good part of the job is recognizing older hardware on sight and knowing whether it's worth repairing or whether the door's earned a replacement.
We don't pad this section with numbers we can't back up. We're not going to tell you how many years we've been doing this or how many trucks are on the road, because those aren't details we're putting in writing here. What we can tell you is that the work is the same every time: look at the door, tell you what's actually wrong, quote it straight, and do the job.
What We Do Not Take On
We don't do full home remodels or new construction framing, if you're building an addition and need a garage opening framed from scratch, that's a carpentry job before it's a door job, and we're not that. We also don't stock every opener model or every panel style on the truck. Some hardware, especially the odder original setups still hanging in houses from the 1963-1990 build era, needs a part ordered in, and that means a second trip instead of a same-day fix. We'll tell you upfront if that's the case rather than promise a fix we can't do that day.
We also won't tell you to replace a door that just needs a spring and a tune-up. If the fix is smaller than the sales pitch, we say so.

About Paradise Garage Door Pros: FAQs
Do you work on houses built in the 1960s and 70s?
Yes, and it's most of what we see. A big share of the housing here dates from 1963 to 1990, median around 1976, so original torsion hardware and older tracks are common. We know what to look for on that hardware and whether it's a repair or a replacement situation.
How far out do you go from Paradise?
We cover Paradise and the surrounding area out to about 20 miles, including Magalia, Butte Valley, Forest Ranch, Durham, Thermalito, Kelly Ridge, Oroville, Oroville East, South Oroville, and Richvale.
What if my door just needs a small fix, not a replacement?
Then that's what we'll quote. If a spring and a tune-up gets your door working right, we're not going to sell you a new door instead. We tell you what the door actually needs, not the bigger job.
Do you carry parts for older opener models on the truck?
Not always. Some of the original 1960s-70s hardware still in these houses needs a specific part ordered in, which can mean a second visit instead of a same-day fix. We'll tell you upfront if that's the case.
