A broken garage door spring can make your door heavy, unsafe, and unreliable. If your door only opens a few inches, feels unusually heavy, or you heard a loud bang from the garage, there is a good chance a spring has failed.

Founded by Daniel Brewer, with more than 20 years of industry experience, we offer clear recommendations, careful repairs, and dependable local service. We are licensed, bonded, and insured. Same day appointments may be available when scheduling allows.
If your garage door is heavy, crooked, stuck, or only opens part way, stop using the opener. Garage door openers are not designed to lift the full weight of the door without spring support, and forcing the system can damage the opener, cables, or rollers.
Keep children and pets away from the door. If your vehicle is trapped inside, call or text us and we will talk you through the safest next step.
Most homeowners notice one or more of these warning signs:
When a spring breaks, the entire door system is put under extra strain. Prompt repair helps prevent additional wear on connected parts and gets the door operating safely again.
Torsion springs are mounted above the garage door on a metal shaft. They are common on many modern doors and provide controlled lifting power.
Extension springs are mounted along the sides of the track. They stretch and contract as the door opens and closes.
No matter which system your door uses, the spring must be matched correctly to the door’s weight, height, and track setup. Correct sizing helps the door stay balanced and reduces unnecessary stress on the opener.
Garage door springs are under significant tension. Incorrect tools, improper winding, or the wrong spring size can lead to serious injury and costly damage.
Professional spring repair includes:
This is not just a parts swap. It is a safety repair that affects the entire door system.
We confirm the spring failure and inspect related components such as cables, rollers, hinges, bearings, and the opener.
We match the replacement spring to your specific door size and weight so the system lifts properly.
We replace the failed spring and address visible safety concerns found during the visit.
We test the door for smooth travel, proper balance, and safe closing performance.
We explain what failed, what was repaired, and what to keep an eye on moving forward.
The final cost depends on the setup of your door and the parts required. Common factors include:
We keep pricing straightforward and explain the plan before work begins.
Homeowners want more than a quick repair. They want someone local, experienced, and easy to work with.

It is not recommended. The opener is not designed to lift the full weight of the door, and forcing it can cause additional damage.
If your door uses two springs, replacing both is often the best long term value because they usually have similar wear. We will explain what we find and recommend the safest option.
Many spring replacements can be completed in a single visit. Timing depends on door type and parts needed.

Most failures come from normal wear over time, cycle use, and metal fatigue.
Torsion springs sit above the door on a shaft, and extension springs run along the tracks. Both counterbalance door weight, but the layout and parts differ.
