Garage Door Repair FAQs

  • How important is insulation in garage doors?

    All garage doors provide some insulation to your garage. This is particularly important when your garage is attached to your property. Heating and cooling costs are expensive, and insulation helps prevent the transference of heat energy. This means that the more insulation your garage door provides, the less energy is needed to cool or heat your property. Well-insulated doors also reduce outside noise and strengthen the door.

  • What materials are garage doors made from?

    Doors can be made from various materials including wood, aluminum, steel, and fiberglass. Each material has its benefits and drawbacks. The one that is right for you will depend on your unique circumstances.

  • How often should I perform garage door maintenance?

    Maintaining your garage door helps make operation smooth when you need to use it and prolongs the life of your door. You should perform maintenance on your garage door at least once a year, but you may wish to do it more often as your door ages.

  • Do you repair any brand garage doors?

    Yes, we can repair any brand of garage door. 

  • Why won’t my garage door open?

    There may be many reasons why your garage door is not opening. Reasons include objects obstructing the opener’s photo eye, misaligned photo eye, roller track not aligned, broken tension springs, and dead garage door opener remote batteries. Schedule a garage door repair appointment with our technicians to have the issue diagnosed. 

  • How long do garage doors last?

    Multiple factors determine the lifespan of your garage doors such as how often maintenance is performed, the quality of the initial installation, local weather conditions, and the type of garage door you have. In general, garage doors last between 15-30 years.
