Oak Creek is an Irvine village in ZIP 92618, reached from Alton Parkway and Jeffrey Road with Sand Canyon Avenue on the east, named for the historic oaks along part of Sand Canyon Avenue. It was built mostly between 1999 and 2003, with the Oak Creek Golf Club inside the village and the Jeffrey Open Space Trail along its western edge.

“Spring snapped at 6am and I couldn't get my car out. Called these guys and someone actually answered - no voicemail. Tech was here in like 25 min, had the right spring on the truck, replaced it and had me on my way before I had to cancel my meeting. Quote was upfront, no surprises. Will use again.”
“Turtle Rock hillside driveways that walk the tracks out of square. Then the original extension pair was side-mounted rust at 17:52, and we wanted torsion before the next snap. They converted the rusty side springs to torsion before the next snap on this Turtle Rock visit. No extra pitch.”
“I noticed an issue with my garage door that required immediate attention. True to their name, Urgent Garage Doors dispatched two technicians, David and Ilya within a couple of hours to inspect and address the problem. They took the time to answer my questions, of which there were many, and explained what they were doing every step of the way. I appreciate the quick resolution and their commitment to customer satisfaction. I will definitely use them again in the future.”
