We take pride in offering solutions that last, not quick fixes that will need attention again in a few months.

Types of Garage Door Damage

Broken springs are one of the most common issues we fix. These powerful components support your door's weight, and when they snap, your door becomes nearly impossible to open. Springs typically last 7-10 years before needing replacement.


Cable damage often accompanies spring problems. These vital components help lift your door evenly, and when they fray or break, your door may hang unevenly or refuse to open at all.


Bent or damaged tracks prevent smooth door operation. We frequently see this after accidental impacts or when debris builds up in the tracks.


Sensor malfunctions create safety hazards. When your door's safety eyes aren't properly aligned or are dirty, your door may reverse unexpectedly or refuse to close.

Common Garage Door Repair Services

Spring replacement is our most requested service. We carry various sizes to fit your specific door weight and use only high-quality torsion or extension springs that maximize safety and longevity.


Cable repair and replacement requires careful attention to tension and proper installation. Our technicians are experts at safely working with these high-tension components.


Noise reduction services include lubricating moving parts, tightening hardware, and replacing worn rollers. You'll be amazed at how quiet your door can operate after our maintenance.


Sensor realignment and repair ensures your family's safety. We carefully clean, adjust, and if needed, replace sensors to restore proper functionality.


Regular maintenance prevents costly breakdowns. Our tune-up services include hardware tightening, lubrication, and comprehensive safety checks that extend your door's life.

Garage Door Repair Process

When your garage door stops working properly, our experts follow a systematic approach to get it running smoothly again. We've refined our repair process to be efficient, thorough, and transparent.

  • 1. Inspection and Diagnosis

    We begin with a comprehensive inspection of your garage door system. Our trained technicians examine all components including springs, cables, rollers, tracks, and the opener mechanism. We look for worn parts, alignment issues, and safety concerns that might be causing the problem.

  • 2. Repair and Replacement Options

    Once we've diagnosed the problem, we'll present you with repair options. For minor issues like sensor alignment or track adjustments, we can often complete repairs on the spot. For more complex problems, we'll explain what parts need replacement and why.

  • 3. Routine Safety Checks

    We recommend conducting a monthly safety inspection of your garage door system. Start by examining the springs, cables, rollers, and pulleys for signs of wear or damage. These components bear the most stress and can be dangerous if they fail unexpectedly.

  • 4. Preventative Maintenance

    You can perform several maintenance tasks yourself to keep your garage door operating smoothly. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to hinges, rollers, and tracks every 3-6 months. Avoid using WD-40 as it attracts dirt and can damage components.

Understanding Service Warranties

A comprehensive warranty protects your investment and indicates a company's confidence in their work. We stand behind our repairs with robust warranty plans. Ask detailed questions about what's covered in the warranty. Quality providers explain coverage terms clearly without hidden conditions or fine print.

Most reliable garage door repair services offer warranties ranging from 90 days to one year for parts and labor. We provide extended options for complete peace of mind.


Check if the warranty transfers if you sell your home. This adds value to your property and shows our commitment to the work we perform. Remember that proper maintenance is often required to keep warranties valid. Our technicians can advise you on simple maintenance steps to extend your door's lifespan.


We at Speedy Automatic Gate Repair provide same-day service and free estimates for all garage door repair needs.

Our hourly labor rates typically range from $75-$150, with total labor costs between $150-$450 for standard repairs. We pride ourselves on our transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

FAQs

Getting answers to your garage door repair questions helps you make informed decisions about maintenance and service needs. Our team at Speedy Automatic Gate Repair has extensive experience addressing common concerns.

  • What are the common signs that indicate a need for garage door repair?

    Watch for unusual noises like grinding, scraping, or squeaking when your door operates. These sounds often signal problems with tracks, rollers, or springs.


    Your door might move unevenly or get stuck midway during operation. This typically indicates track misalignment or issues with the opener mechanism.


    Slow response time when using your remote or wall switch suggests electrical problems or sensor issues that require professional attention.

  • How often should a garage door be serviced to prevent malfunctions?

    We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year to ensure optimal performance. Regular service helps identify potential issues before they become major problems.


    Homes in areas with extreme weather conditions or doors that see heavy daily use might benefit from bi-annual inspections. This helps extend the lifespan of your door system.


    Simple monthly visual checks by homeowners can complement professional maintenance. Look for loose hardware, damaged weather stripping, or signs of wear on moving parts.

  • What is the typical turnaround time for a garage door repair service by a professional company?

    Most standard repairs can be completed within 1-2 hours once our technician arrives at your location. Simple issues like sensor adjustments or remote programming take even less time.


    For more complex problems requiring special parts, we typically complete repairs within 24-48 hours. We maintain a well-stocked inventory to minimize wait times.


    Many common issues can be resolved during the initial service call. Our technicians arrive with fully-equipped service vehicles to handle most repairs on the spot.

  • Can a garage door be repaired on the same day the service is requested?

    We offer same-day repairs for most common garage door issues when you call before noon. Our dispatch system prioritizes urgent requests.

  • What safety protocols should be followed when conducting a garage door repair?

    Always disconnect power to the garage door opener before attempting any inspection or maintenance. This prevents accidental activation during work.


    Never adjust or remove tension springs yourself. These components store tremendous energy and require specialized tools and training to handle safely.


    Keep children and pets away from the work area during repairs. Moving parts, tools, and components can pose hazards during the repair process.
