Home Services in Bristol, Florida: The Garage and Beyond

The garage door, the shelving on the garage walls, and gutters and new-house testing for Bristol addresses.

Work at a Bristol house or building

Big Bend Services, Inc. works on garage doors, wire shelving and gutters in Bristol, the Liberty County seat, ZIP 32321. We also test newly built houses with a blower door.

The garage is where two of our services meet: the door and the shelving on the walls around it. Tell us every job at the address, including closets and gutters, and it goes on one request. Call (850) 819-6031 or send the form. Our office in Wewahitchka takes calls Monday to Friday, 7:00 AM to 4:00 PM.

Garage door

Frayed cables, and repair or a new door

A frayed or snapped lift cable is replaced. Until it is, keep the door closed and leave the opener off.

Repair or a new door comes down to how much of the door is at fault. One worn or broken part is a repair. Bent or cracked sections across the door, or a wish for a different door, lead to a new one. Tell us which it is on the request, and describe any damage to the sections.

  • A new door

    Measured to the opening and quoted.

  • The opener

    Repaired, or a new one fitted, with the door or on its own.

  • A broken spring

    A loud bang and a door too heavy to lift point to a broken spring, which is replaced.

  • Off its track

    Bent track sections are straightened or replaced and the door set back on its rollers.

Garage walls

Shelving that stays clear of the door

Wire shelving on garage walls is set where the door track and the opener will not reach it, and where a car door can still open. We supply the shelving and install it. Tell us what you plan to store: tools, bins, paint, sports gear or bulk goods.

  • Side walls

    Kept below and beside the track as the door travels up.

  • Back wall

    Clear of the opener rail and the light on the opener.

  • Fixed or adjustable

    Fixed shelves for a wall that will always hold the same bins; shelf-and-rail where the load will change.

  • More than the garage

    A utility room or storage room off the garage can go on the same quote.

  • Long tools and ladders

    Say if long things need a place, so a wall section can be left open for them.

Workshop garages

A garage that is also a workshop

A garage used as a shop needs the door to run cleanly, the walls clear for tools and benches, and the roof water kept off the doorway. All three can go on one request, with the house or on their own.

  • Door

    Worn rollers and hinges replaced, or a new door measured to the opening.

  • Roof edge

    A gutter over the door, with the downspout set away from the entry.

  • Weather seals

    A new bottom seal and side and top seals keep rain and leaves off the shop floor.

Businesses

Offices, shops and churches in Bristol

  • Gutters

    Offices, shops, restaurants, warehouses and churches, with the work scheduled around business hours.

  • Doors

    Roll-up and commercial doors at shops, offices and warehouses.

  • Shelving

    Back rooms and storerooms fitted with wire shelving.

Closets

Closets that hold different things over the years

A closet that holds toys now may hold files or linens later. Adjustable shelf-and-rail shelving lets the shelf heights change with it, and the closet can go on the same quote as the garage.

Tell us what each closet holds today and whether you expect that to change, and the quote is written for the kind that fits.

  • Hall and linen closets

    Shelves only, spaced for what is stored now.

  • Bedroom closets

    A shelf and rod, with room to add shelves later on the rails.

  • Laundry

    A shelf over the washer and dryer with a hanging rail.

  • Pantry

    Levels that can move as the family and the groceries change.

  • Walk-in closets

    Laid out wall by wall, with long and short hanging and shelves.

Gutters

Leaking joints and gutter guards

A leak at a joint or corner is repaired at that spot. The seal is redone, or the corner rebuilt if it will not hold, and the rest of the run stays.

Guards fit over existing gutters, after the gutters are cleaned and any leaks or loose sections are repaired. When you call, say where the drip shows up: at a corner, midway along a run, or where the downspout joins.

  • What guards do

    Keep leaves and needles out of the trough so less builds up.

  • What they do not do

    Stop every bit of grit. The gutters still need a look now and then.

  • Cleaning

    Done by hand, with the downspouts flushed and the debris hauled off.

  • A corner that leaks again

    A corner resealed before that leaks again, or one with split metal, is rebuilt rather than sealed over.

  • Sagging runs

    Hangers are reset, with more added, so the gutter holds its slope to the outlet.

  • New gutters

    Seamless gutters formed on site, 6-inch as standard, in a color matched to the trim.

  • Downspouts

    Moved or extended so the water lands away from doors and walks, above ground only.

New houses

Testing one house or several

A newly built house is tested for air leakage against the Florida energy code limit of 7 air changes per hour at 50 pascals. A builder with several houses can book them together, and each is tested on its own with its own result.

  • Finish work

    Paint, flooring, trim, cabinets and countertops do not change the reading.

  • Ready to book

    Once the last pipe, wire, vent and duct through the shell is in.

  • Test day setup

    Windows and outside doors closed, dampers shut, heating and cooling off, inside doors and registers open.

  • Attic and garage

    An unheated, uncooled attached garage and a vented attic are left outside the test; an attic sealed at the roof deck is part of it.

  • With each booking

    The address, the permit number and the ready date for each house.

  • How it is measured

    A fan fitted in an exterior doorway holds the house at the test pressure while the leakage is measured.

  • Over the limit

    The leaks are corrected and the house is tested again.

FAQ

Bristol questions

Have another question? Call (850) 819-6031.

Why did only one cable break?
The two cables wear on their own, so one can fail first. Tell us which side went, whether the door is hanging crooked, and whether it is open or shut now.
Can one visit cover gutters at several Bristol rentals?
Yes. Landlords and property managers can have several addresses looked at on one visit for gutter work. Send the full list with the request.
Can one site contact cover a builder's whole group of houses?
Yes. If the same supervisor runs every house, name that person once. If different people open different houses, list the right name beside each address so the call on test day goes to someone who is there.
Should heavy things go on garage wall shelving?
Yes, on the lower shelves, where they are easier to lift down. Tell us roughly how heavy the heaviest things are.
Can sagging closet shelving be replaced?
Yes. Shelving that sags or has pulled away from the wall is replaced with new shelving that we supply.
