How much does garage door spring repair cost?

Spring repair typically costs between $150-$350 depending on the type of spring (torsion vs extension) and your door size. We provide free estimates before any work begins.

Do springs break more often in cold weather?

They break more often during cold snaps, yes. Steel contracts and grows less forgiving as the temperature drops, so a spring already near the end of its cycle life tends to give out on the coldest morning rather than gradually. That is why a fall inspection is worth more here than a spring one.

My old door has springs along the sides rather than a bar above it. Is that different?

Yes, and it changes the repair. One piece doors from that era usually run extension springs on each side rather than a torsion bar over the opening. They are sized as a pair, so both are replaced together, and safety cables through the springs matter more here because no shaft holds a failed spring.

How long does spring repair take?

Most spring repairs are completed in 1-2 hours. Our trucks come fully stocked with common spring sizes, so we can usually complete the repair in one visit.

Should I repair or replace both springs?

We strongly recommend replacing both springs at the same time, even if only one has broken. Springs wear at similar rates, and the second spring is likely near the end of its life. Replacing both ensures balanced operation and prevents a return visit.

Why did my garage door spring break?

Garage door springs have a limited lifespan, typically 7-12 years or 10,000 cycles. Springs can break due to age, rust, improper maintenance, or extreme temperature changes. Regular lubrication can extend spring life.

Can I open my garage door with a broken spring?

You should NOT attempt to operate your garage door with a broken spring. The door is extremely heavy without the spring's counterbalance and can fall suddenly, causing injury or damage. Call a professional for safe repair.

How quickly can you repair my broken spring?

We understand that a broken spring can leave your car trapped or your home unsecured. Call us and we will work to schedule your repair as quickly as possible based on availability.

Important Safety Information

•NEVER attempt to repair garage door springs yourself - they are under extreme tension
•Old wood doors are far heavier than steel, so their springs carry more force, and hardware this old can let go at any time.
•Keep children and pets away from a malfunctioning garage door
•Do not use the door until it has been inspected and repaired by a professional
•A loud bang on a freezing morning is usually a spring. Cold makes the steel brittle. Leave the door alone until it is inspected.

Don't risk your safety. Call a professional today.

Proudly Serving Crestline, CA

Snow load is the real design problem between 4,600 and 5,000 feet, and it turns up as bent top sections, sagging track and springs that give out during a cold snap. The old kit cabins around Lake Gregory and Valley of Enchantment often carry detached garages with hand-framed openings, so a replacement door rarely drops straight into a catalog size.
