Named for the Cuyahoga River valley, this village of 1,897 people (2020) includes part of Cuyahoga Valley National Park and a stretch of the Ohio and Erie Canal. Its ZIP code is 44125.
Houses in a river valley deal with fog, damp and floods, and garage doors take the brunt of it. Our crews are on call 24/7 for spring, cable, track and opener repairs, and they install replacement doors too.
Galvanized steel doors with a baked-on finish shrug off damp far better than wood. An insulated model from Wayne Dalton also keeps the garage warmer. See door replacement options.
An opener with battery backup, such as a LiftMaster, still works when a storm cuts the power. Opener installation.
Valley View became a village in 1919 after it broke away from Independence over an argument about where the schools should go. It grew slowly, from 403 residents in 1920 to 998 in 1950 and a high of 2,179 in 2000.
The 2010 census found 2,034 people in 758 households, about two-thirds (65.6%) of them married couples, with 2.68 people per household and a median age of 47.3. Family homes like that open and close the garage door many times a day, and every cycle takes a little life out of the springs.
Tinker's Creek, the largest tributary of the Cuyahoga River, joins the river here. The creek is named after Captain Joseph Tinker, principal boatsman of Moses Cleaveland's survey crew. Near the confluence, the Tinker's Creek Aqueduct, listed on the National Register, carries the canal over the creek, and that area is subject to flooding from both the river and the creek. Part of the Metroparks' Bedford Reservation is in Valley View as well.
Water is the enemy of garage doors. If your garage has ever flooded, check the bottom section for rust, the rollers for grit and the opener's electrical parts for corrosion. We can replace a damaged bottom section when the model allows, and a tune-up afterward gets everything moving freely again.
The Valley View Bridge carries Interstate 480 across the Cuyahoga River here. Nearby, we also serve Independence, Garfield Heights, Walton Hills and Seven Hills.
Excellent, quick, and professional service! I highly recommend.

Look for rust on the bottom section and brackets, grit in the rollers and any water around the opener. Call us and we’ll inspect and clean everything, and replace what was damaged.
For damp locations, yes. Steel with a factory finish doesn’t swell or rot, and it needs far less upkeep.
Yes, from the canal and the valley floor up to the streets on higher ground.
