How much does it cost to repair a garage door spring?

The cost of garage door spring replacement typically ranges from $150 to $350 for a standard residential door, depending on the type of spring system (torsion vs. extension) and the quality of parts used. Torsion springs, which are mounted above the door, tend to cost more but last longer and provide smoother operation. At Garage Door Burlingame, we provide free estimates before any work begins, so you'll know exactly what to expect. We use high-cycle springs rated for 25,000+ cycles, which means your new springs will last significantly longer than standard springs. Our pricing includes labor, parts, and a warranty on our work. For an accurate quote specific to your door, give us a call at (650) 663-3470 or request an estimate online.

How long does it take to install a new garage door?

A standard residential garage door installation typically takes between 3 to 5 hours for our experienced technicians. This includes removing the old door and hardware, installing the new door panels, tracks, and springs, mounting the opener if included, and programming remotes and safety features. More complex installations, such as custom doors, doors requiring structural modifications, or commercial installations, may take longer. At Garage Door Burlingame, we pride ourselves on efficient work without cutting corners. We'll give you an accurate time estimate when we schedule your installation, and we always clean up completely when we're done. Most installations can be completed in a single visit, so you'll have a fully functional new garage door by the end of the day.

Why is my garage door making loud noises when it opens or closes?

A noisy garage door is usually caused by one of several common issues: worn rollers, loose hardware, lack of lubrication, or worn springs. Metal rollers can become loud as they age, and upgrading to nylon rollers can significantly reduce noise. Loose bolts, nuts, and hinges vibrate during operation, creating rattling sounds. Springs and other moving parts need regular lubrication to operate quietly. Worn springs can create grinding or squealing noises as they struggle to lift the door. At Garage Door Burlingame, we offer comprehensive tune-up services that address all these issues. Our technicians will inspect your entire system, tighten all hardware, lubricate moving parts, and identify any components that need replacement. Regular maintenance not only quiets your door but also extends its lifespan and prevents costly repairs. Contact us at (650) 663-3470 to schedule a maintenance visit.
