What the Garage Door Repair Service Includes
Our general repair service covers comprehensive troubleshooting and tune-ups. We perform a detailed 25-point physical safety inspection of the tracks, rollers, hinges, cables, and safety sensors. If components are worn, we align and tighten tracks to prevent binding, install new heavy-duty nylon rollers or steel cables, lubricate all moving metal parts, and test safety reversal limits. Our diagnostic fee is included in the quoted starting price of the repair.
Do Not Attempt DIY Cable or Track Repairs
Garage door bottom brackets and cables are under extreme tension from the spring assembly. Never loosen or remove these brackets without professional safety tools, as they can cause severe injury or property damage.

Garage Door Repair Questions
How much does general garage door repair cost?
Our repair services start at $95 as of June 2026, which includes parts, labor, tax, and disposal. The final price varies depending on the hardware required and the door's overall condition.
Can I operate my garage door if it is crooked or off-track?
No. Operating an off-track or crooked door can bend the tracks, damage the panels, or burn out the opener motor. Keep the door in its current position and call a professional immediately.
Why is my garage door making loud scraping noises?
Grinding or scraping is usually caused by worn roller bearings, dry hinges, or misaligned tracks. We recommend lubricating moving parts regularly and upgrading worn steel rollers to sealed nylon rollers to quiet the door.
