Garage door repair · Openers
When your opener hums, stops halfway or does not respond, our technicians find the cause. We repair chain drive, belt drive, screw drive and wall-mount openers from most brands.
We give you the service call price on the phone before we book. Emergency service is available 24/7.
We call you back within 15 minutes during business hours.
Some opener problems have a simple cause. Do these checks first. If the door still does not work, call us.
Look at the light on the opener motor.
If the light is off, unplug the opener. Then plug it in again.
Make sure nothing blocks the safety sensors near the floor.
Replace the batteries in the remote or keypad.
If the door is very heavy when you lift it by hand, stop. The problem is probably a spring. Do not use the opener.
Electrical or mechanical, our technicians find the problem and fix it, so your door is safe and easy to use again.
The door does not open or close.
The keypad, remote or app does not work.
The door does not close all the way, or it reverses.
The opener squeaks or grinds.
The door shakes as it moves.

Also called jackshaft or side-mount openers. They mount beside the door.
Openers you control with a phone app, such as LiftMaster myQ.
We repair, replace and program the accessories that control the door.
Repair or replace
If your opener is old, has no safety sensors or its parts are no longer made, a repair may not be worth the cost. We install LiftMaster and Raynor openers and give you the repair price and the replacement price in writing, so you can compare.

Yes. We repair most brands and types of openers. If a part is no longer made, we explain your options and give you the price in writing.
If the door is heavy when you lift it by hand, the problem is usually a spring, not the opener. Do not use the opener until a technician checks the springs. A balanced door lifts easily.
