Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions homeowners ask us:

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend having your garage door professionally serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, extends the life of your door and opener, ensures safe operation, and can save you money on costly repairs. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will inspect all components, lubricate moving parts, check the balance, test safety features, and make any necessary adjustments.

What are the signs that my garage door springs need replacement?

Common signs that your garage door springs may need replacement include: the door feels unusually heavy when lifting manually, the door doesn't stay open or closes too quickly, you notice visible gaps or stretched coils in the springs, there are loud squeaking or grinding noises during operation, or the door opens unevenly. If you notice any of these signs, it's important to call a professional immediately as broken springs can be dangerous.

How long does a typical garage door installation take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes between 4 to 6 hours, depending on the complexity of the job. This includes removing the old door, installing the new door and tracks, setting up the opener, and testing all safety features. Custom installations or doors requiring structural modifications may take longer. We always ensure the job is done right, never rushing quality for speed.
