The Your Garage Guru E-E-A-T Promise: Meet Our Certified Metro Vancouver Technicians

Garage doors are safety devices, not just curb appeal upgrades. That is why we put the "who" front and center—clear bylines, verifiable credentials, and technicians you can actually meet in Metro Vancouver.

Who Services Your Door (By Name)

• Avery Chen — Red Seal Journeyperson Carpenter; IDEA Door Systems Tech Level 2; specializes in insulated steel doors for coastal moisture.
• Priya Nair — Certified Door Dealer Consultant (IDEA); LiftMaster Elite installer; experts in safety sensor alignment and smart openers.
• Miguel Torres — Spring & Cable Safety Specialist; OSHA 10; focuses on torsion conversions, noise reduction, and seasonal tune-ups.

Each technician carries visible ID, arrives in branded vehicles, and logs every part number used on your job.

How We Vet and Train

• Background checks and trade references verified before hiring.
• Quarterly skills labs: spring changes, photo-eye calibration, force testing, and weather-seal replacements.
• Manufacturer-led trainings (LiftMaster, Amarr, Clopay) plus BC Electrical Code refreshers for opener installs.
• Safety-first policy: zero ladder work without spotters and fall protection on elevated tracks.

Service Protocol You Can Expect

1. Arrival and identification: Technician name, certification, and digital work order confirmed with you.
2. Risk assessment: Force/obstruction test, cable fray check, bracket anchoring, and opener surge protection review.
3. Transparent estimate: Line-itemed parts with manufacturer SKUs; no bundled mystery fees.
4. Photo documentation: Before/after shots stored in your job record, accessible on request.
5. Safety sign-off: Final balance test, auto-reverse verification, and noise baseline recorded.

Content With Bylines and Sources

Every guide on this site lists the author, reviewer, and last updated date. Tech-focused articles link to the technician’s bio, certifications, and the brands they are trained on. When we cite specs (R-values, cycle ratings, torque ranges), we link to manufacturer manuals or CSA standards instead of unverified blogs.

Coverage You Can Verify

We serve Metro Vancouver, including Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, Surrey, Langley, Coquitlam, and North Vancouver. Jobs outside these areas? We will still share a vetted partner or decline the work—no surprise travel fees.

Warranty and Insurance Basics

• Written workmanship warranty provided on every invoice.
• Proof of liability insurance and WCB coverage available before we start.
• OEM parts only; no off-brand springs or remotes that void opener warranties.

What We Do Not Do

• No cash-only, no-permit structural changes.
• No reused torsion springs or patched cables.
• No AI-written service reports—your technician writes and signs the notes.

How to Book With Confidence

• Call or text to request a named technician from the roster above.
• Ask for their last three similar jobs in your city; we will share anonymized addresses and outcomes.
• Request a copy of our force-test and balance checklist before we leave.
