Gillieston Heights: homes, garages and weather

Floods have cut off Gillieston Heights more than once. After the April 2015 storm, about 2000 residents were isolated for about a week. In July 2022, floodwater closed Cessnock Road on either side, and the SES ferried supplies and people across. The suburb was a development priority, with 1494 new lots approved by early 2013. Let us know, and a garage door repairer near you can ring back.

When floods close the roads around Gillieston Heights, a repairer may not be able to reach you until they reopen, so let us know if access is cut. Many homes here sit on lots approved since 2005, so doors and openers may still be under warranty. If B&D made yours, its warranty relies on servicing within a year of installation and at least once every two years after that.

Nearly half of homes here (47.0%) had two vehicles in 2021. If one is shut in the garage, tell us. Also name the door type and say what it did: stopped, reversed, jammed or came down unevenly. Don’t touch a spring or cable that has snapped. If you rent, the property manager needs to know as well. With your permission, a garage door business nearby will then receive your details.
