Common garage door problems
Broken springs (torsion or extension)
Garage door springs carry the full weight of the door. When they break, the door becomes impossible to lift and dangerous to operate. Torsion springs (above the door) and extension springs (along the sides) both require specialist replacement with correct spring sizing for your door weight.
Failed opener motor
The motor unit, drive chain, or control board can fail. Symptoms include humming without movement, intermittent operation, or complete failure to respond. Gear and limit switch replacements are common; motor replacement may be needed for older units.
Off-track door
A door that has jumped its rollers off the track is a safety hazard. Causes include impact damage, broken cables, worn rollers, or misaligned track. Never attempt to force the door back on track — call a specialist.
Damaged panels
Accidental impact, weather damage, or corrosion can dent, crack, or warp garage door panels. Single panel replacement is often possible if the door is under 10 years old and the manufacturer still produces matching panels.
Cable issues
Cables work with the springs to lift the door. Frayed, snapped, or detached cables cause uneven lifting, door slippage, and potential collapse. Cable replacement should always be paired with spring and pulley inspection.
Garage door types we repair
Roller Doors
Horizontal slats that roll up into a drum above the opening. Common motor, slat, and guide rail issues.
Sectional Doors
Panel sections that rise vertically and curve back into the garage. Spring, cable, and track repairs.
Up-and-Over Doors
Single-panel doors that swing out and up. Spring, pivot arm, and track issues are common.
Side-Hinged Doors
Two doors that swing outward like traditional doors. Hinge, lock, and weather-seal repairs.
