Fontana homes, up close

Summer temperatures inland regularly climb past 95 degrees, so air conditioning works hard. The city requires a permit to connect to the sewer or to repair an existing sewer connection.

The Inland Empire Utilities Agency treats Fontana's wastewater and makes recycled water. Sun and heat wear down weather seals and opener parts on west-facing doors faster than expected.

Sun-faded panels and brittle weather stripping are common in sunny exposures. Santa Ana winds blow hot, dry air through the Inland Empire in fall and winter.

Who handles what in Fontana

Garage door contractors in California are licensed by the Contractors State License Board, which has an online lookup. Ask whether the tech will test the auto-reverse and photo-eye safety features before leaving.

When it is time for a pro

You may want a garage door company if you notice any of these:

  • Door won't open or close
  • Loud bang and door won't lift (often a spring)
  • Opener runs but door doesn't move

What to have ready

Do not keep running the opener if the door is stuck. It can damage the motor.

What happens after you call

  1. Call or use the form and describe the problem.
  2. Your details go to a garage door company with availability in your part of Fontana.
  3. The two of you settle on a time and a price, or you walk away.

Common questions

What should I tell the company?

Describe what the door is doing, the opener brand if you know it and whether you heard a bang. If you know the door's approximate age or brand, that helps too.

Is my garage door opener too old?

Openers made before the early 1990s may not have the safety reverse features required today. If yours lacks photo eyes, replacing it is worth considering.

Do I need a new door or just a new opener?

If the door moves smoothly by hand, the opener may be the issue. A pro can check both. An opener that strains on a door that is hard to lift by hand points to a door problem, not a motor problem.

Is my neighborhood in Fontana covered?

Yes, as long as a pro is free. Fontana ZIP codes 92335, 92336, 92337 are in range, and that includes Village of Heritage, Citrus Heights, Jurupa Hills and North Fontana.

A clear description and a couple of photos go a long way toward a quick and accurate answer.
