Garage Door Repair – FAQ
How do I know if my garage door needs repair?
Your garage door may need repair if you notice any of the following signs: it makes strange or loud noises, operates slower than usual, has difficulty opening or closing, appears crooked or off-balance, or has visible damage, broken parts, or wear and tear.
How can I prevent my garage door from needing repair?
Regular maintenance is critical to preventing the need for garage door repairs. This includes lubricating moving parts, tightening loose hardware, checking the door’s balance, and inspecting the door for any wear and tear. It’s also important to avoid DIY repairs and to only hire licensed technicians for any necessary repairs or installations. Additionally, taking care not to bump the door with vehicles or heavy objects and keeping the tracks and sensors clean can also help prevent damage and prolong the garage door’s life.
How often should I have my garage door serviced?
To keep your garage door functioning correctly and prevent potential issues, it’s generally recommended to have it serviced at least once a year. However, the frequency of service may depend on factors such as the age and condition of the door, frequency of use, and any visible signs of wear or damage. It’s a good idea to have a professional perform regular maintenance and inspections to catch any potential issues early on and ensure the door operates smoothly and safely.
How often should I have my garage door serviced?
Some common garage door repairs include replacing broken springs, repairing damaged panels, repairing or replacing malfunctioning openers, realigning or replacing misaligned or damaged tracks, and repairing or replacing worn-out cables. Other common repairs may include fixing or replacing weather stripping, adjusting the door’s balance, or replacing faulty sensors. It’s important to contact a professional for any necessary repairs, as attempting DIY repairs can be dangerous and may lead to further damage or injury. Regular maintenance and inspections can also help catch potential issues early on, preventing the need for more extensive repairs down the line.
How much do common garage door repairs cost?

I can’t fault this company. Great same day service and Eyal was extremely professional and efficient in servicing my roller door springs and replacing the motor, which had been on its way out for a number of months. Very happy with the new motor, and that my garage door now fully opens, and alternatively remains closed without bouncing back up. Extremely happy customer.
Eyal was very helpful when we had a last minute failure of our garage door, he arrived within 30 mins to fix our issue. Was very happy Eyals service except for the company's charge of $950 to replace two pulley wires, felt like it was a bit taking advantage of our situation.
Excellent Service with fast response time! Will definitely be using them again.
Excellent service and great price. I called him on Saturday evening, and he installed a new opener the next morning (Sunday). He offered a range of models, and even though I chose the cheaper option (Jaytech 1200 V4), it’s still a highly regarded opener. Highly recommend—an honest and reliable tradesman.
