What this means for garage doors in East Riverside
28% of these homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s, so the garage door and opener on any one house could be original, replaced once or replaced several times. That is why we inspect the whole door, springs, cables, rollers, tracks and opener, on every visit. It is also a mixed area: 45% of homes were built before 1980 and 44% since 2000, so an original house and a new rebuild on the same street can need very different doors.
