Our garage door repair service in your area comes down to three things: a clear diagnosis, the right parts on the truck, and a door that is balanced and safety-tested when we finish. Diagnosis and repair for doors that are stuck, noisy, crooked or won't open or close.
Safety first: springs and cables hold hundreds of pounds of tension. Don't try to adjust or remove them yourself, and don't run the opener on a door that's crooked or has a broken spring.
When to call for garage door repair
- The door won't open or close, or stops partway
- It shakes, jerks or sits crooked as it moves
- Loud grinding, banging or scraping noises
- The opener runs but the door doesn't move
- Visible gaps, sagging or a loose cable
Why this happens
- A broken torsion or extension spring
- Frayed or slipped lift cables
- Worn rollers or a bent or loose track
- Opener, sensor or remote problems
- Hardware that has loosened over years of use
Before the technician arrives
- Look for a gap in the spring above the door. A broken spring has a visible break in the coils.
- Check that both photo-eye lights near the floor are steady, not blinking.
- Make sure nothing is blocking the tracks or the door's path.
- Check that the opener is plugged in and the wall button lights up.

Garage Door Repair: frequently asked questions
How much does garage door repair cost?
Garage Door Repair typically costs $150-$450 including parts and labor, and usually takes 1-2 hours. The exact price depends on your door and the parts it needs, and you get it before any work starts. Call (833) 435-8883 for a quote.
Can you do garage door repair the same day?
Often, yes. When a technician is available we can usually come the same day, and common parts are carried on the truck. Doors that won't close or have a broken spring are treated as priority calls, and emergency service is available.
Is garage door repair covered by a warranty?
Our work comes with a 90-day labor warranty on repairs. New parts and doors also carry the manufacturer's warranty. Ask for the warranty details in writing with your quote.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Our technicians are insured, and where your state or city requires a contractor license for garage door work, the job is done under that license. You're welcome to ask for proof when you book.
Should I repair or replace my garage door?
A good rule of thumb: if the repair costs more than about 50% of a replacement, or the garage door is near the end of its life, replace it. A garage door typically lasts 15 to 30 years. If several panels are damaged, the door is rusted through or rotted, or parts are discontinued, replacing it is often better value. Springs are the exception: a broken spring is always replaced, never repaired. Our free repair vs. replace calculator can help you compare.
