Grapefruit-size hail and other storms

On April 11, 2016, it recorded 4-inch "grapefruit sized hail at Eastshore Road near Rockwall" and 3-inch hail in the city.

A dented door is often cosmetic, but a bent section, a strut pulled loose or a door that binds after a storm should be checked. Take dated photos before anything is repaired. See hail damage and panel replacement. Ask your insurer what your policy covers.
Newer homes, common requests
A 2000s door has often had one spring set and one opener already. Standard springs are commonly rated around 10,000 cycles, and openers last about 10 to 15 years (Fixr). Hardware works hard here too: DFW averages about 106 days a year at 90°F or hotter (NOAA 1991–2020 normals). If you live in an HOA neighborhood, check your architectural guidelines before changing door style, color or windows.
New doors carry a wind-pressure rating label. Ask which rating your city requires and keep the label.
Texas consumer rights
Texas's Deceptive Trade Practices Act prohibits false statements about the need for parts or repairs, and claiming work was done when it wasn't (Bus. & Com. Code §17.46(b)(13), (22)). Ask for a written estimate and an itemized invoice that lists the parts replaced, and ask for your old parts back.
If you sign a contract at your home, Texas law (Bus. & Com. Code ch. 601) and the FTC's Cooling-Off Rule can give you until midnight of the third business day to cancel. Read the cancellation notice before you sign.
Rockwall garage door FAQ
Do you cover the city of Rockwall or all of Rockwall County?
This page is about the city of Rockwall, the county seat. Companies that reply to requests often serve nearby towns too, so if you live elsewhere in Rockwall County, send a request with your ZIP and see who responds.
My Rockwall door is about 20 years old. Repair or replace?
It depends on the door's condition. A broken spring, frayed cable or worn rollers on a sound door are usually repairs. Several dented sections, a door you want to restyle, or an opener at the end of its 10 to 15 year life can tip it toward replacement. Ask for quotes on both.
Does Rockwall require a permit for a new garage door?
Rockwall sets its own building rules, separate from Garland, Texas. Most garage door repairs don't need a permit, but a new or resized opening, or new wiring for an opener, can. Ask your installer or call the City of Rockwall.
