Garage Door FAQ — Licensed

We understand that a broken garage door spring is an urgent matter that can leave your family stranded or your home unsecured. Our team typically responds within 2-4 hours for emergency spring repairs during business hours. For same-day service, we recommend calling before noon. Most spring repairs are completed within 1-2 hours once our technician arrives. We stock all common spring sizes in our service vehicles to ensure we can complete the repair in a single visit. If you're experiencing a broken spring, don't attempt to operate the door manually as this can be dangerous.

Garage door springs break primarily due to metal fatigue from repeated cycling. Most torsion springs are rated for approximately 10,000 cycles (one cycle = one open and one close). For a typical family that opens their garage door 4 times daily, springs may last 7-9 years. Other factors that contribute to spring failure include: temperature fluctuations (California's climate causes expansion and contraction), lack of maintenance and lubrication, rust and corrosion, improper initial installation, and spring quality. Regular maintenance can extend spring life by 25-50%. We recommend annual inspections to identify wear before failure occurs.
