I've Been Doing This for Over 30 Years

I started as an apprentice in 1982, learning the trade from the ground up. Replacing springs, adjusting tracks, and figuring out why openers fail. After working for a few companies and seeing how the business could be run better, I opened Same Day Garage Door Repair in 1990.

I built this business on three things: show up when I say I will, charge what I quoted, and fix it right the first time. That's still how I operate today.

When you call me, you get me. Not a dispatcher, not a subcontractor. I answer the phone, I diagnose the problem, and I do the repair.

I stock my truck with the parts I use most so I can fix most problems on the first visit. I'm a licensed Wayne Dalton door dealer and a licensed LiftMaster opener dealer, so when a replacement is needed you're getting quality equipment installed by someone who knows it inside and out.

What You Can Expect When You Call Me

No surprises. No upsells. No runaround.

Same-Day Service

Most calls get a same-day appointment. I know a garage door that won't open isn't something you want to wait on, especially if it's your only way in or out.

Straight Diagnosis

I'll tell you exactly what's wrong and what it'll cost before I touch anything. If it's something simple, I'll say so. If it needs a part, I'll tell you what and why.

Phone Support First

Before you book a visit, call me. A lot of problems can be diagnosed over the phone or on FaceTime. If I can save you a service call, I will.

First-Visit Fixes

My truck is stocked with the springs, cables, rollers, and opener parts I use most. I don't want to make two trips any more than you want to wait for one.

Guaranteed Work

Everything I do is backed by a guarantee. If something I repaired fails, I come back and fix it. That's not fine print, that's just how I operate.

Local to Walnut Creek

I've been serving Walnut Creek and Contra Costa County for over 30 years. When you hire me, you get a local specialist, not a franchise. See how I handle real calls from real customers in my case studies.
