Wichita neighbourhoods we work in
A garage door job in a 1920s bungalow district is a different job from one in a 1990s subdivision, and the difference is rarely the door. It is build era, framing, opening size and access. These pages say what to expect in each part of the city.
College Hill
Platted from 1910 and largely built out by the mid-1930s, College Hill is brick bungalows, Tudors and Foursquares on tree-lined streets east of downtown.
Riverside
One of the oldest parts of the city, built between roughly 1900 and 1940 along the Arkansas and Little Arkansas rivers.
Delano
Historic district immediately west of the river, with housing stock largely from the 1890s through the 1930s and a lot of recent infill.
