How We Handle Your Spring Repair

First, we assess what’s actually wrong. Not every garage door problem is a spring issue, but when it is, we’ll tell you exactly what needs to happen and what it’ll cost before we start.

Next, we safely remove the broken spring using proper tools and techniques. Garage door springs store hundreds of pounds of tension – this isn’t the time for shortcuts or guesswork.

Then we install your new spring, properly balanced and tested. We use high-quality springs rated for 25,000+ cycles, not the 5,000-cycle springs some companies use to keep costs down.

Finally, we test everything to make sure your door operates smoothly and safely. You’ll know it’s fixed because it works like new.

Great Neck Garage Spring Replacement

What You Get With Our Service

Every garage spring repair includes a complete safety inspection of your door system. We check cables, rollers, tracks, and hardware because a spring problem often reveals other issues that need attention.

Great Neck’s coastal environment is tough on garage doors. Salt air, humidity, and temperature swings cause faster wear than inland areas. We account for this by using corrosion-resistant springs and hardware designed for Long Island conditions.

First-time customers get 10% off their repair. But more importantly, you get work that’s done right the first time by people who’ve been doing this longer than most companies have existed.

How dangerous is it to repair garage door springs myself?

Extremely dangerous. Garage door springs store hundreds of pounds of tension and can cause serious injury or death if mishandled. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, approximately 30,000 people are injured by garage doors annually, with many injuries involving springs. These aren’t minor cuts – we’re talking about broken bones, lacerations, and worse. Professional technicians have specialized tools and training to safely release spring tension. The few hundred dollars you might save attempting DIY repair isn’t worth risking your life or a trip to the emergency room.
Most garage door springs last 7-9 years or about 10,000 cycles, but Great Neck’s coastal environment can shorten that lifespan. Salt air, humidity, and temperature fluctuations cause faster corrosion and metal fatigue than you’d see in drier climates. Springs that might last 10 years inland could fail in 5-6 years here without proper maintenance. We use high-grade steel springs rated for 25,000+ cycles and recommend annual lubrication to combat local environmental factors. This extends spring life and helps prevent unexpected failures.
Torsion springs mount above your garage door opening and twist to lift the door. Extension springs run along the sides of your door tracks and stretch when the door opens. Torsion springs are generally safer because they’re contained above the door and less likely to become projectiles if they break. Extension springs can snap and fly across your garage, potentially causing injury or property damage. Most modern garage doors use torsion springs, but many older Great Neck homes still have extension spring systems. We can convert extension springs to torsion springs for improved safety and performance.
Garage spring repair typically costs between $150-350 for most residential doors, depending on the spring type, door size, and any additional hardware needed. The exact cost depends on several factors: single or double door, torsion or extension springs, door weight, and whether other components need replacement. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work – no surprises. First-time customers receive 10% off their repair. While cost matters, remember that cheap springs fail sooner and quality work prevents dangerous situations and repeat service calls.
Yes, we offer same-day garage spring repair service throughout Great Neck and surrounding areas when you call early enough in the day. We understand that a broken garage spring isn’t just inconvenient – it can trap your car and disrupt your entire day. That’s why we prioritize emergency spring repairs and keep common spring sizes in stock. Most spring repairs take 1-2 hours once we arrive. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe when you call and keep you updated if anything changes.
Yes, if one spring breaks, you should replace both springs even if the other looks fine. Here’s why this saves you money and hassle. Springs installed at the same time experience similar wear patterns and stress cycles. When one fails, the other is likely close behind. Replacing both prevents a second service call in a few weeks or months. Also, mismatched springs create an unbalanced door that puts extra strain on your garage door opener and can cause premature failure of other components. It’s more cost-effective to handle both springs in one visit.
