The Vance Gate Repair Sunnyvale Guarantee
We stand behind every gate we touch in Sunnyvale with the 365-Day Done Right Promise. If a repair isn’t right, we make it right - no argument, no fee, no expiration date within that full year. Since 2014, we’ve repaired and installed over 22,000 gates, and every single job started with a written price and ended with a documented photo record. That’s not a marketing line. It’s how Adrian Vance built this company out of commercial access-control work, and it’s what every Sunnyvale customer gets today.
What’s Covered
- Workmanship guarantee. Every adjustment, weld, and motor installation is covered for 365 days under our Done Right Promise - if the gate drifts, squeaks, or fails in the same way, we return and fix it at no charge.
- Parts handling. We document the exact part number installed, photograph it in place, and file that record with your job history so there’s no question about what went on your gate.
- Cleanup commitment. We leave the site as we found it - metal shavings swept, old hardware hauled away, and the photo log showing the finished condition before we drive away from your Sunnyvale property.
- On-time arrival with transparency. You get the technician’s name and photo before dispatch, and a background-checked, uniformed professional arrives in the scheduled window - no anonymous subcontractors.
- Honest pricing under Haven Standard Clause 1. The flat price is written and handed to you before any work begins. No “call for a quote,” no surprise invoice, no post-job math.
Our Satisfaction Promise

If you’re not satisfied with our work in Sunnyvale, we have a single process: we make it right. The 365-Day Done Right Promise means you call us, describe what’s happening, and we schedule a return visit. No diagnostic fee. No re-inspection charge. No pro-rated nonsense. Adrian Vance built this policy after watching commercial clients get burned by contractors who disappeared the moment the check cleared. Residential customers deserve the same accountability.
Here’s how it actually works. You notice the gate hanging differently two months after we adjusted the hinges. You call (669) 900-1904, a live person answers 24/7, and we pull your job record - the photographed “before” and “after,” the part numbers, the technician’s notes. If we missed something, we own it. If the part failed prematurely, we handle the warranty exchange and reinstall at no cost. If the gate has been damaged since our visit, we’ll show you the photo evidence and explain exactly what changed. Either way, you get clarity, not a runaround.
The promise has no expiration within that 365-day window. We’ve honored it on day 4 and on day 340. The only requirement is that you notify us during the coverage period so we can document the concern and schedule the fix.
Before
AfterLicensed & Insured Backing
The paper guarantees matter because they back the personal one. Vance Gate Repair Sunnyvale is state-licensed, insured, and bonded - the credentials that let us pull permits when a Sunnyvale installation requires them and protect your property if the unexpected happens. Adrian Vance carries these coverages because he started in commercial access-control sites where no general contractor would let you on-site without them. That same standard applies to your driveway gate.
Licensing means we’ve demonstrated competency to the state and maintain it through ongoing requirements. Insurance means if a welding spark finds the wrong surface or a heavy gate panel shifts during removal, you’re not negotiating with our adjuster - you’re covered. Bonding adds a layer of financial protection that outlasts any verbal assurance. These aren’t decorative footnotes. They’re the infrastructure that lets us offer the 365-Day Done Right Promise with confidence, and they’re verified on every job we dispatch in Sunnyvale.
What’s Documented on Every Job

Under Haven Standard Clause 4, Evidence on Every Job, you receive a photographed record of what we found, what we adjusted, and what we installed. This includes:
- The gate condition on arrival - hinge wear, track alignment, motor mounting, control board status
- Close-ups of failed components - cracked weld, corroded limit switch, frayed cable, misaligned photo-eye
- Post-repair settings - limit switch degrees, force sensitivity readings, safety edge positioning
- Installed parts with visible part numbers - motor model, control board revision, replacement arm bracket
- The finished gate in operation, demonstrating proper travel and safety function
You keep a copy. We file a copy. If a question arises six months later about whether that weld was actually redone or whether the motor was new or refurbished, the evidence exists. This documentation habit came from Adrian Vance’s commercial work, where missing paperwork meant missing payment. Residential customers get the same rigor at no additional charge.
Free Second Opinion on Any Written Estimate
Bring us paperwork from another company and we’ll review it at no cost. We’ll tell you if the scope makes sense for your gate type, if the parts quoted match the failure described, and whether the pricing aligns with what we see in the Sunnyvale market. We’re not looking to undercut - we’re looking to inform. If their estimate is solid, we’ll say so. If something’s off, we’ll explain why. No obligation to hire us.
What We Don’t Do

Our guarantee has boundaries, and we state them clearly. We don’t cover damage from vehicle impact, homeowner modifications made after our visit, or normal wear that exceeds the 365-day window. We don’t honor manufacturer warranties on parts - those run through the brand (LiftMaster, FAAC, BFT, Linear, Viking, Ghost Controls, DoorKing, Elite, or Mighty Mule) and their specific terms. What we do honor is our own labor and installation quality, without exception, for that full year.
How to Start a Claim
Call (669) 900-1904 anytime - live person, no voicemail loop. Describe the symptom. We’ll pull your job record while you’re on the phone, review the original photo documentation, and schedule a return visit. Most callback visits in Sunnyvale happen within 48 hours. The technician arrives with your history already loaded, diagnoses against the original work, and fixes what’s ours to fix. If the issue falls outside our coverage, we’ll explain exactly why and quote any additional work under the same written-price-before-work-starts rule.
