FAQs
How quickly can you reach my San Jose neighborhood?
For most San Jose zip codes, same-day arrival is available when you call before noon. Evening calls are typically scheduled for early the next morning, with no after-hours surcharge applied.
Do you charge extra for evening or weekend calls?
No. The rate is the same at 9 p.m. Saturday as it is at 9 a.m. Tuesday. There are no trip fees and no after-hours markup, just flat pricing regardless of when you call.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Carlos Garage Door Services holds California contractor license CSLB D-28 #1143970 and is fully insured and bonded, with workers' comp on every technician. You can search license number 1143970 at cslb.ca.gov to check the D-28 classification, bond, and workers' comp status.
My spring snapped and the door will not move. What happens next?
Call and describe the door size and type. The tech arrives with torsion springs sized for your door and replaces the broken spring on the spot. Most spring jobs close within the same visit, using high-cycle springs rated 15,000 to 30,000 cycles.
My opener remote clicks but the door does not move. Is it the remote?
Usually not. The most common causes are a worn drive gear, a failed logic board, or a misaligned safety sensor. The trucks carry parts for LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Genie so the problem can be diagnosed and fixed on the first visit.
Do you work on commercial garage doors?
Yes. The company services sectional, roll-up, and high-speed commercial doors for warehouses, auto shops, and multi-unit properties, and works around your operating hours to limit downtime.
How often should I schedule a maintenance visit?
Once a year is the standard for most homes. Properties in lower-lying areas that collect seasonal moisture, or doors used more than twice daily, benefit from a tune-up every six months.
Do you charge for estimates?
No. Free estimates are offered. After the inspection you get a written price, you approve it before any work starts, and the final invoice matches that number.
