Your Local Garage Door Team in Julington Creek and Fruit Cove

Julington Creek Plantation broke ground in the mid 1980s and filled in through the 1990s and 2000s, and the Fruit Cove neighborhoods around it grew up at the same time. That means a lot of homes here are still running the springs, rollers and openers the builder put in 20 or 30 years ago. Those parts are now at the end of their life, and we see it in the calls we get.

Homes here also tend to have bigger garages, two and three car setups with wide, heavy doors, and busy families who use the garage as the front door. More weight and more trips up and down a day means more wear. We size every repair to the door you actually have, not to a one size fits all part.

Garage Door Repairs We Handle in Julington Creek and Fruit Cove

Broken spring repair tops the list in Julington Creek and Fruit Cove, since so many original springs are finally giving out. Garage door opener repair and replacement is a close second, along with cable and roller repair, off track doors, and new garage door installation for homeowners ready to replace the original builder door.

What We See Most Often Here

• Original builder springs breaking after 20 years or more of daily use
• Openers from the 1990s and 2000s that are loud, slow, or failing
• Wide, heavy doors on two and three car garages that wear parts faster
• Worn bottom seals and weatherstripping letting in water, leaves and bugs

When the Builder Door Has Done Its Job

A builder door that’s 25 years old isn’t automatically done. If the panels are in good shape, new springs, rollers and cables can keep it going for years. But if you’re already replacing parts every year, or the door is dented, faded and uninsulated, a new door can be the better spend. Most neighborhoods here have an HOA, and many want to approve a new door before it goes up if it changes the look of the home. We can give you the door style, color and specs to send in with your request.

Named for the Orange Groves

Fruit Cove gets its name from the citrus that once lined this stretch of the St. Johns River. In 1873, the Rev. Theophilus Wilson Moore planted an orange grove here and named the area Fruit Cove, and families like the Moremens made it a busy spot for growing and shipping citrus. State Road 13, which runs along the river through Fruit Cove, is now the William Bartram Scenic Highway, named for the naturalist who explored the St. Johns in the 1770s. The groves eventually gave way to neighborhoods, and in the mid 1980s work began on Julington Creek Plantation, a master planned community of roughly 4,100 acres that helped turn this quiet river area into one of the most popular places to live in St. Johns County.
