When your garage spring snaps, your day stops. We get that garage spring repair in Port Washington can’t wait until next week.
You need your garage door working so you can get to work, pick up the kids, or just park your car where it belongs. A broken spring means you’re stuck—either your door won’t open at all, or it’s making that grinding noise that tells you something’s about to give.
When we replace your garage door springs, you get back to pulling in and out of your driveway without thinking about it. No more wrestling with a heavy door that barely budges. No more worrying about whether today’s the day it completely fails.
Most spring repairs take us about an hour. You’ll have a door that opens smoothly, closes properly, and works the way it’s supposed to work.
Eidelberg Garage Doors has been fixing garage doors since 1945. That’s almost eight decades of homeowners in Port Washington, Brooklyn, Rockaway, and the Five Towns trusting us when their garage doors break down.
We’re not the newest company, and we’re not trying to be the flashiest. We’re the company that shows up when you call, fixes what’s broken, and charges you a fair price. Most of our work comes from customers telling their neighbors about us.
The business has been in the same hands since 2011, when the current owners took over and kept the same commitment to getting the job done right. We know Port Washington’s older homes—many built in the 1950s—and the kinds of garage door problems they develop over time.
First, we figure out what’s actually wrong. Sometimes what looks like a spring problem is really a cable issue, or the opener, or something else entirely. We don’t assume—we check.
If it’s your springs, we measure your door and determine whether you need torsion springs (the ones above the door) or extension springs (the ones along the sides). Most Port Washington homes have torsion springs, which last longer and are safer when they break.
We replace both springs even if only one is broken. Here’s why: if one spring failed, the other one has been doing double duty and is probably close to failing too. Replacing both saves you from another service call in a few weeks when the second spring gives out.
The whole job typically takes about an hour. We test the door multiple times to make sure the balance is right and everything’s working smoothly before we leave.

We handle both torsion and extension spring systems. Torsion springs are the heavy-duty ones mounted above your garage door opening—they’re what most modern doors use. Extension springs run along the tracks on either side of your door and are more common on older doors.
Port Washington’s housing stock includes many homes from the 1950s and earlier, so we see plenty of both types. Extension springs can be more dangerous when they break because they can snap back like a slingshot. That’s why we always install safety cables with extension spring systems.
We use high-cycle springs that are rated for 25,000 to 50,000 cycles instead of the cheaper 5,000 to 15,000 cycle springs some companies use. Better springs cost a little more upfront but they last years longer. For most homeowners in Port Washington, that means springs that outlast the garage door opener.
First-time customers get 10% off their repair. We’re licensed, insured, and we clean up after ourselves.
