If your garage door is noisy or shaky, it may need adjustment or replacement. A crooked or sagging door usually indicates a problem with the sensor system, which is a federally mandated safety feature.
A garage door is a major investment and should be properly maintained. Annual service inspections and lubrication will help avoid more expensive repairs down the road.
Repairs
The garage door is a complex system that requires periodic maintenance to prevent damage and prolong its lifespan. Our service technicians can provide a thorough inspection and make necessary repairs to keep your garage door functioning correctly and efficiently.
Replacing Bottom Rubber
Over time, dents and dings can be inflicted upon the garage door by kids, pets or the elements. These aren’t just unsightly; they can also reduce the effectiveness of the bottom seal and allow drafts, dirt, water or insects into your garage. A new piece of bottom rubber will cost $100 to $200, including labor.
Noisy garage doors are often caused by the hinges or rollers, which can wear out and create metal-on-metal noise. A simple brushing and lubrication may quiet the door, but if not, replacement of these parts is usually required. Our technicians can assess the problem and offer an affordable repair quote. During the process, they can also test and rebalance the springs to help prevent excessive strain on other components of the system.
Replacements
If your garage door is showing signs of wear and tear or you are noticing that it isn’t operating as efficiently, you might be considering replacing your existing garage door. This can be a major investment, but one that can save you money over time. You may even be able to add battery backup features, which can save you in the event of a power outage.
There are many smaller parts that make up the operation of a garage door, including brackets, cables, and rollers. These small components can break or get worn down, causing problems with the opening and closing of your garage door. Replacing a single bracket can cost $5, while new cables or chains generally run $100 to $400 with labor. Replacing a panel is a bigger repair and can cost $150 to $500 depending on the size of the panel. It also usually takes four to six hours to install a garage door.
