About this service
Springs are the heavy-duty components that counterbalance the weight of your garage door. They are under high tension and will eventually wear out or snap after thousands of cycles. If your door feels extremely heavy, won't lift, or makes a loud bang, you likely have a broken spring. Replacing them requires specialized tools for safety. Factors like spring size and door weight affect the price. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
