What garage door opener repair covers
A motor that hums or runs while the door stays put usually means a stripped nylon drive gear — a cheap part, and a repair worth doing on any opener under about twelve years old.
A door that starts down then reverses is almost always the photo-eye sensors near the floor: knocked out of line by a bike, fogged with dust, or with a cut wire. Both indicator lights should be steady, not blinking.
We work on LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Overhead Door, Linear, Wayne Dalton and Marantec units, and we will tell you plainly when a repair costs more than it's worth.

FAQ
Questions we get asked
The opener hums but the door doesn't move. What is it?
Almost always a stripped nylon drive gear, and on any unit under about twelve years old it's a cheap, sensible repair rather than a replacement.
My door closes then immediately reverses. Why?
The photo-eye safety sensors near the floor. Both indicator lights should be steady — blinking means they're out of alignment, blocked, dusty or the wire is damaged. It's a quick fix and often costs less than you'd expect.
Should I repair or replace my opener?
Under ten years old with a common fault, repair. Over fifteen, noisy, no rolling-code security and no battery backup — replace. We'll quote both so the numbers make the decision for you.
Can you set up smartphone control for my garage door?
Yes. Either a new Wi-Fi-enabled opener or an add-on module for a compatible existing unit, set up and tested on your phone before we leave.
Can you repair my door or do I need a new one?
Most doors can be repaired, and we'd rather fix yours than sell you one. The line we use: if the repair costs more than about half a new door, or you've paid for three repairs in two years, replacement is the cheaper road. We'll quote both and let you choose.
Do you give estimates over the phone?
For most jobs, yes — tell us what the door is doing and we can usually put a flat number on it before we drive out. For new door installation we measure on site first, because headroom and backroom decide the hardware.
How long does a spring replacement take?
Usually under an hour and a half for a standard two-car door, including winding the new springs, re-setting the cable drums and balancing the door. We replace springs in pairs, so you're not back here in three months for the second one.

★★★★★
Belt drive instead of the old chain. Our bedroom is over the garage and we genuinely cannot hear it now.

Called at 11pm because the door was stuck wide open and I wasn't about to leave the house like that. Somebody actually answered and had it closed by half past midnight.

Old door was rotting at the bottom. They showed me the repair price and the replacement price side by side and let me pick. No pressure either way.
