Garage Door Repair in Millcroft, Burlington

Millcroft is the golf-course community of north Burlington, built over roughly two decades beginning in the 1980s with most properties completed in the 1990s and early 2000s. Homes back onto an eighteen-hole course, and the stock runs to detached houses on large lots, upscale townhouses and bungalows scattered throughout. The distinguishing feature for our purposes is stated directly in local descriptions: homes here tend to have double-car garages and are set back off the street, which is the difference between Millcroft and the tighter frontages of Alton Village and The Orchard.

Millcroft is also where Burlington's infill debate is loudest. The Millcroft Greens proposal at Country Club Drive covers five parcels on the golf course, and the revised scheme takes in 90 single-detached lots across four of them, split 29, 40, 14 and 7, plus a six-storey residential apartment building on the fifth. The Ontario Land Tribunal has approved all of the applications. For existing homeowners the practical consequence is construction traffic and staging on streets that were designed for quiet golf frontage, with the usual knock-on effects for access.
