How quickly can you fix my broken springs?

We understand that a broken spring means your garage door is out of commission. That's why we offer same-day service for most spring repairs. When you call us, our dispatchers prioritize spring issues because we know how urgent they are. In most cases, we can have a certified technician at your home within 2-4 hours during business hours.

Our technicians arrive fully stocked with the most common spring sizes, so repairs are usually completed in under an hour once we're on site.

What causes broken springs in garage doors?

Garage door springs are under tremendous tension and are designed to last approximately 10,000 cycles (one cycle = opening and closing the door once). The most common causes of spring failure include: normal wear and tear from daily use, rust and corrosion from humidity and temperature changes, poor quality springs that were installed originally, lack of regular maintenance and lubrication, and extreme temperature fluctuations which cause the metal to expand and contract. Springs typically last 7-12 years depending on usage. We recommend our preventive maintenance program to extend spring life and catch potential failures before they happen.

Worcester's housing stock is incredibly diverse. You've got triple-deckers in Main South, Victorian homes near Elm Park, ranch-style houses in Tatnuck, and newer construction around Green Hill. Each type of home comes with different garage door setups and challenges. The triple-deckers often have detached garages with older hardware. Victorian homes might have converted carriage houses. Newer builds typically feature insulated two-car doors with modern openers.

The weather here doesn't make things easier. Worcester winters are brutal on garage door springs and cables.
