For the Do-it-Yourselfers
The neighborhoods we serve are full of die-hard DIYers who work hard to maintain their homes. If you’re one of them, you’re probably itching to get a project done right now. But take it from a team of guys who know how you feel; there can be a big difference between getting your project done right and doing it yourself. When it comes to regular garage door service in Lenexa, if homeowners want to do the maintenance on their own, there are 2 things we recommend.
Inspect
You should visually inspect your garage door at least once every 1-3 months depending on the daily use and age of the door This is the safest bet for homeowners to enjoy reliable rolling with every push of the button. During your inspection, start by checking if anything appears to be wearing out.
We also recommend aligning the sensors on the bottom of your door rails. These can easily become obstructed or knocked out of alignment. After writing down notes of any flaws you may need fixed, we recommend turning your focus on an easy maintenance task.
Clean
If you’re the proud owner of a power washer and have a free Saturday morning, why not give your home a bath? Keeping your door opening clear and clean will improve the look and function of your home with every clean! When washing your garage door, we recommend following this helpful guide from Clopay!
Call
The best thing you can do for your garage door after cleaning it is cracking a cold one, kicking back, and calling a professional technician. Instead of wasting a weekend scouring the internet for tutorials and sweating it out in your garage, seize the day, and knock out that honey-do list the Accelerated way! Just call us in the morning, and a tech will be at your door soon after.
