Professional Garage Door Spring Repair
Garage door springs are an integral part of a complete garage door opener system, serving as a counterbalance to the weight of the door itself–which can be upwards of 300-400 pounds. Like any mechanical part, garage door springs don’t last forever and will occasionally break. When that happens, it is best to call a professional to assess the damage and repair or replace the impacted parts before the issue gets worse.
Garage door springs can be quite tricky and even dangerous to repair, as they often require specialized tools and hold a lot of pressure that can be unintentionally released without the right training. Mr. Spring has expertly trained and experienced technicians who know the ins and outs of replacing garage door springs, and can get the job done quickly and efficiently. We offer absolutely free on-site estimates and inspections, so you will know exactly what work needs to be done and how much it will cost to replace your garage door springs before work begins.

Commons Signs Your Garage Door Spring Needs Repair or Replacement
- Garage door makes a loud sound when opening or closing, including screeching, banging, or crashing.
- A gap in the garage door spring can indicate that the spring has snapped or unwound and needs to be replaced or adjusted.
- Garage door opens crooked or is bending suggesting a change in the balance that is maintained by a properly working spring.
- A garage door cable that is loose or damaged signaled by signs of unraveling or significant slack in the cable from the ceiling. Depending on the extent of the damage, a garage door cable replacement may be necessary in addition to the spring repair in order to maintain the safety and integrity of the system.
Frequent Causes of Broken Garage Door Springs
A number of things can contribute to the failure of a garage door spring, but the most common include the following:
- Rust is a routine problem with garage door components which are often exposed to the elements, and can significantly reduce the lifetime of metal pieces like springs.
- Everyday wear and tear is the most common cause of a garage door spring failure. Most springs last around 10,000 cycles, which in an average household is around 5-7 years of regular operation.
- Lack of routine maintenance can decrease the lifespan of a garage door spring. Mr. Spring offers a regular maintenance plan to keep your springs lubricated and your garage door balanced so your springs last as long as possible. Call or click below to find out more.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garage Door Spring Repair
Can I fix a garage door spring myself?
It is not recommended that a garage door spring repair be attempted by anyone who is not a trained professional. Garage door springs carry a lot of tension and improper handling can lead to accidental injuries. Proper adjustment of replaced springs can also require specialized tools, making the safest and most efficient solution to hire an expert.
How much does a garage door spring replacement cost?
The cost to replace a garage door spring can vary based on the size of the spring, the age of the door, and the extent of the damage. The best way to determine the cost is to inspect the door and opener, which a reputable garage door repair service provider will typically do for free.
How long do garage door springs last?
The life of a garage door spring is entirely dependent on usage. On average a typical torsion spring can last between 5 and 7 years, though doors with lighter usage can have springs that last closer to a decade.
