Live Oak sits between Santa Cruz and Capitola, and it is mostly single-family homes, a lot of them near Pleasure Point and East Cliff Drive. That close to the surf, salt gets into the garage and rusts springs, cables and hinges faster than inland. We fix those parts and swap in hardware that lasts longer near the water. See spring repair.
What we fix most in Live Oak:
No travel fee in Live Oak, and we are open 24/7.
Rust-resistant parts near the surf
This close to Pleasure Point, a standard spring can rust through in a few years. We use coated springs, galvanized hinges and sealed nylon rollers that hold up better near the water. We also check the bottom seal, since sand and wind-driven rain get in under worn seals. Roller replacement.
New doors for beach homes
If your door is rusting from the bottom up, an insulated steel door with a good factory finish is the best fix. See door options.
How a Live Oak visit works
We call when we are on the way, look at the door with you and give you the price before any work starts. Most jobs, like springs, cables and rollers, are finished in one visit because we carry the common parts. There is no travel fee in Live Oak, and we are open 24/7, so a door stuck open at night does not have to wait until morning.
