A Spring Carries the Door's Weight
A Broken Spring Leaves the Opener Doing Work It Wasn't Built to Do
A loud bang, a visible gap in the spring or a door that suddenly feels heavy usually means the spring system has failed.
Running the opener again can strain the motor, cables and hardware while the door is no longer balanced.
FixIt identifies the spring system, replaces the failed parts and balances the door before testing the opener.

Before You Book
Garage Door Spring Repair Questions
Answers about safety, replacing one or both springs, timing and door balance.
No. Stop operating the door and do not adjust springs, cables or brackets. These parts can be under extreme tension.
That depends on the door and the condition of the second spring. The technician will inspect the system and explain the options before you decide.
FixIt offers same-day availability seven days a week. Exact timing depends on current appointments, technician location and the spring required.
Yes. The door is balanced and its operation is tested after the spring work is completed.
Completed spring repairs include a written warranty on parts and workmanship.
