Garage door springs are under extreme tension and are the most common component to fail. A broken spring makes your door impossible to lift safely and creates a serious hazard. Our technicians replace torsion and extension springs with the correct rating for your door weight, restoring smooth, balanced operation while protecting your family and property from the dangers of DIY spring repair.

- High-cycle, galvanized spring options
- Same-day emergency spring replacement
- Safe removal of broken springs
- Balanced, tested operation after every job

How It Works
Identify the Spring
We determine whether your door uses torsion or extension springs and measure the wire size, length, and inside diameter to match the replacement.
Safe Removal
Using professional winding bars and clamps, we carefully release tension from the old spring and remove it safely.
Precision Replacement
We install the new spring, wind it to the correct tension for your door weight, and secure all hardware.
Balance Test
Your door is tested by hand to confirm it holds at any height — the sign of a properly balanced spring system.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why did my spring break?
Springs fail due to normal metal fatigue over thousands of cycles, temperature fluctuations, and sometimes corrosion. Most springs last 7–10 years with regular use.
Should I replace both springs if only one broke?
For two-spring systems, yes. The second spring is the same age and has worn equally, so replacing both prevents a near-future repeat failure and keeps the door balanced.
Can I replace a spring myself?
We strongly advise against it. Garage door springs carry enough tension to cause serious injury. Professional replacement is fast, affordable, and safe.
How long does spring replacement take?
Most spring replacements are completed in 1–2 hours, often the same day you call.
