Repair or replace?
Most doors are worth repairing. These are the signs our technicians look for before they suggest anything else.
| What you notice | What it usually means | What we suggest |
|---|---|---|
| The door slams shut or feels very heavy | A broken or tired spring | Replace both springs as a pair and rebalance |
| The opener hums but the door does not move | A broken spring or a stripped opener gear | Check the springs first, then repair the opener |
| The door reverses before it closes | Safety sensors dirty or out of line | Clean and realign the sensors, then test the reverse |
| A dented panel on a door that runs well | Damage to the outside only | Replace the one section if it is still made |
| A door over twenty years old with rust or rot | Worn sections and hardware throughout | Compare a full set of repairs with a new door |

An annual service for $95
A garage door moves thousands of times a year, and most breakdowns start as a squeak or a slow close that nobody notices. A yearly visit catches worn cables and loose hardware while they are still cheap to fix.
- Springs, cables and rollers inspected
- Moving parts lubricated and hardware tightened
- Balance tested and adjusted
- Opener force and safety reverse checked
From homeowners (example reviews)
The spring went at seven in the morning with the car inside. They were there before lunch and the door has been quieter since than it ever was.
The technician fixed the sensors in ten minutes and told me the opener did not need replacing, which another firm had quoted for.
Clear quote, three style samples on a photo of our house, and the new door fitted in a morning with the old one taken away.
Questions about garage door repairs
Is it safe to open a door with a broken spring?
Please do not. Without the spring the door is very heavy and can drop suddenly. Leave it closed, keep everyone clear and call us.
Why replace both springs when only one broke?
Springs on the same door wear at the same rate, so the second usually fails within months. Replacing the pair saves a second visit and keeps the door balanced.
How long does a new door take?
The quote visit takes about forty minutes. Doors in stock are fitted within a week, and made to order sizes take three to four weeks. Fitting itself takes about half a day.
Which openers do you fit?
Chain, belt and wall mounted openers from several established makers. We suggest one to suit the door's weight and the room above it.
Do you charge for the visit?
A visit costs $65, and it is taken off the bill when we carry out the repair on the same visit.
How is the work paid for?
We send the invoice when the work is finished, and payment is arranged directly with us. New doors take a deposit when the order is placed.
