What affects the price
- Springs: the size and type (torsion vs. extension) and whether one or both are replaced. We replace in matched pairs so the door stays balanced.
- Openers: a repair (a gear, board or sensor) costs far less than a new unit; a belt-drive opener with battery backup costs more but is quiet and lasts.
- Cables, rollers & hardware: usually modest, and often bundled when several worn parts are replaced together.
- New doors: driven by size, material, insulation and window options — an insulated steel door and a custom carriage-house door sit at different price points.
- Your specific door: oversized, carriage-house and older non-standard doors sometimes need specific parts.
Watch out for these pricing red flags
- Bait-and-switch quotes — a rock-bottom phone price that balloons once the technician arrives.
- Per-hour billing on a spring job — spring replacement is a defined job; open-ended hourly pricing invites padding.
- Pressure to replace the whole door when a straightforward repair would do.
- Inspections that always find expensive problems. A check should be honest, not a sales pitch.
We do none of that. You get the price before we start, and we tell you honestly whether a repair or a replacement is the smarter money.
