When Your Garage Door Breaks

How do I know if I need garage door spring replacement?

That loud 'SNAP!' sound in the middle of the night? That's usually your garage door spring breaking. Other warning signs include your door refusing to open, looking crooked when it tries to operate, or feeling incredibly heavy when you attempt to lift it manually. We know it's tempting to try fixing it yourself to save money, but garage door springs are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury or death if handled improperly. Please don't risk your safety - our trained technicians have the right tools and experience to handle this dangerous repair safely.

Why won't my garage door open?

Common causes include: broken springs, damaged cables, misaligned tracks, faulty garage door opener, blocked safety sensors, or power issues. Our technicians can quickly diagnose and fix the problem.

How long do garage door repairs take?

Most repairs are completed within the same visit, typically taking 1-3 hours depending on the complexity. We carry common parts on our trucks to minimize delays and get your door working quickly.

What if my garage door is making noise?

Noisy doors often indicate worn rollers, loose hardware, lack of lubrication, or misaligned tracks. While some noise is normal, loud grinding, squealing, or banging sounds require professional attention to prevent further damage.

Upgrading Your Home with New Doors

How long does garage door installation take?

New garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours, depending on the complexity and type of door. This includes removing the old door (if applicable), installing the new door, opener, and testing all components.

What garage door brands do you install?

We install all major garage door brands including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Clopay, Wayne Dalton, and more. We'll help you choose the best door for your home's style, budget, and functionality needs.

Do you install smart garage door openers?

Yes! We install and program smart garage door openers with WiFi connectivity, smartphone apps, battery backup, and advanced safety features. Popular brands include LiftMaster myQ and Chamberlain smart openers.

Can you install a garage door in any size opening?

We can install garage doors for most standard and custom openings. Our technicians will measure your opening and recommend the appropriate door size and configuration, including single and double-car doors.

What factors affect garage door repair costs?

Costs depend on the type of repair needed, parts required, door size, and complexity of the issue. We provide transparent, written estimates before beginning any work so you know exactly what to expect.

Keeping Your Family Safe

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend annual professional maintenance to keep your garage door operating safely and efficiently. Regular maintenance can prevent costly repairs and extend the life of your door system.

What garage door maintenance can I do myself?

Safe DIY maintenance includes: visual inspection for wear, cleaning tracks of debris, testing safety features, and lubricating hinges and rollers with white lithium grease. Leave spring adjustments and major repairs to professionals.

How do I test my garage door safety features?

Test the auto-reverse by placing a 2x4 under the door - it should reverse when it contacts the board. Test photo-eye sensors by breaking the beam while closing - the door should reverse. If either test fails, call for service immediately.

When should I replace my garage door instead of repairing it?

Consider replacement if: the door is over 15-20 years old, requires frequent repairs, has significant structural damage, lacks modern safety features, or if replacement costs are more economical than ongoing repairs.
