What should I do if my garage door makes squeaky sounds while opening and closing?
If the squeaky noise is coming from hinges, rollers, and torsion springs, try lubricating them with lithium-based or silicone-based lubricant spray. However, if the squeaking sounds are still persistent while opening and closing your garage door, it means some garage door parts are out of alignment. In this case, you must call our professional garage door technician for help. If you keep dripping or spraying excess lubricant and keep ignoring its repair, the garage door will eventually stop working, leading to more expensive repairs. Since a garage is a heavy and complex system with hundreds of small moving parts that work together, a professional technician will be able to take proper safety precautions and tighten or replace any door parts.
What kind of warranty do you offer for garage door repair or installation?
In our garage door repair or installation, we always offer a 1-year labor warranty and 1 to 5 years of manufacturer’s warranty on any garage door or door parts that we replace and install. To learn more about our warranty details, give us a call today!
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a garage door?
Well, it depends on your garage door lifespan and the type of problem that you are having with your garage door. The average lifespan of a garage door is 15 to 30 years. So, if your garage door is old, has a considerable amount of weather damage like rusting, warping, and discoloration, the wood has started to rot, or you have already done costly repairs in the past, in cases like these, it’s cheaper to replace a garage door. But if your garage door is out of balance, suddenly breaks down, and has dents on one or two panels, it’s cheaper for you to repair your garage door than to replace it.
Since the garage door has an excellent cost vs. value ratio, homeowners can replace an out-of-date garage door with a new one with no second thought. But for those who are a little tight on budget, call us today, and we will send our certified garage door technicians to inspect your garage door and give you an actionable plan with an estimate.
Can you repair the dents and scratches on a garage door?
Yes, our technicians can repair the dents and scratches on a garage door. We only suggest doing the DIY repair if the dents and scratches are minor. But if two or more panels of your garage door are badly dented, rotted, or corroded, it means you need to replace the entire garage door panel, and the whole door has to come down. So, for tasks like this, you must call our experienced technicians. Alternatively, if your garage door has major dents and scratches, you can install a new garage door instead of having a professional fix each panel individually. We say this because you can have a 97% return on investment in replacing a broken garage door with a new one instead of repairing it.
Do you repair broken chains and cables on a garage door?
Yes, we also repair broken chains and cables on garage doors. It’s very dangerous to open or close a garage door with a broken chain and cable since it can lead to serious injury. So, if you notice a snapped cable hanging or if your garage door won’t move at all, call us immediately. Our certified technicians will replace the chain and cable with manufacturer-approved replacement parts and assemble them without damaging the door or other moving parts.

What causes a garage door spring to break, and how can I fix or prevent it?
A garage door spring breaks due to wear and tear (i.e., within 10,000 cycles), rust, and improper maintenance. One way to prevent the garage springs from breaking is by lubricating them a few times a year with white lithium grease. Additionally, you can also check the condition of the springs by checking the balance of your garage door every few months. You can inspect the balance by putting the garage door in manual mode, lifting the door 4 to 5 feet (i.e., 1 to 2 meters), and finally letting it go. If your garage door springs are in good shape, they will hold the door. However, if the door slips or sags, it means that your garage door springs are wearing out and need a replacement immediately.
