Accepted Answer

Yes. We provide a 1 Year warranty on labor, 3 Year warranty on parts, and a Lifetime warranty on springs. See our Warranty page for full details.

Question 6

How do I know if I need a repair or a full replacement?

Accepted Answer

As a rule of thumb, if your door is less than 15 years old and the issue is mechanical (springs, cables, opener), a repair is usually the best value. If the door itself is severely damaged, rusted through, or outdated, a replacement may be more cost-effective. We'll give you honest advice either way.

Question 7

How much does a typical repair cost?

Accepted Answer

Most common repairs range from $150 to $450 depending on the issue. Spring replacements typically run $200–$400, opener repairs $150–$350, and off-track corrections $125–$250. We always provide a free estimate first.

Question 8

No. We don't believe in gouging people when they're in a bind. Our pricing is the same 24/7 — nights, weekends, and holidays included.

Do you offer financing?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We offer flexible financing options for larger projects like new door installations. Visit our Financing page for details or ask your technician about available plans.

Question 10

Is there a service call fee?

Accepted Answer

We do not charge a service call fee when you proceed with the recommended repair. If you choose not to have the work done, there is a small diagnostic fee.

Question 11

How quickly can you get to my house?

Accepted Answer

For emergencies in our primary service area (Cypress, Tomball, Katy), we typically arrive within 60 minutes. For standard appointments, we offer same-day and next-day availability in most cases.

Question 12

Do I need to be home during the repair?

Accepted Answer

We prefer that an adult (18+) be present during the repair to authorize any work and review the final result. If that's not possible, we can make arrangements on a case-by-case basis.

Question 13

How long does a typical repair take?

Most repairs are completed in 1–2 hours. A new door installation typically takes 3–5 hours. We'll give you a time estimate when we provide your quote.

No. We don't believe in gouging people when they're in a bind. Our pricing is the same 24/7.

Question 15

How fast can you get to my house?

Accepted Answer

In Cypress, Tomball, and Katy — typically within 60 minutes. Other areas may take slightly longer.

Question 16

Why does my opener hum but not move the door?

Accepted Answer

This usually indicates a stripped gear, a seized motor, or a broken spring that's preventing the door from moving. We'll diagnose the exact issue.

Question 17

Can I add Wi-Fi to my existing opener?

Accepted Answer

In many cases, yes! LiftMaster and Chamberlain offer myQ adapters that add smart functionality to compatible openers.

Accepted Answer

In most cases, we can arrive within 60-90 minutes for emergency calls in our primary service area (Cypress, Tomball, Katy).

Question 21

Can I replace a garage door spring myself?

Accepted Answer

We strongly advise against it. Springs are under extremely high tension — hundreds of pounds of force. Improper handling can cause serious injury or death. Always call a professional.

Question 22

How long do garage door springs last?

Accepted Answer

Standard builder-grade springs last about 10,000 cycles (roughly 5-7 years). Our high-cycle springs last 25,000+ cycles per manufacturer cycle-life rating — up to 15 years of daily use.

Question 23

Why did both my springs break?

Accepted Answer

If your springs were installed at the same time, they have similar wear. When one breaks, the other is usually close behind. We recommend replacing both to avoid a second service call.

Question 24

How long does a new door installation take?

Accepted Answer

Usually 3-5 hours for a standard single or double door. Custom doors may take longer.

Question 25

Do you haul away the old door?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Removal and disposal of your old door is included in every installation.

Question 26

What's the best garage door for Texas heat?

Accepted Answer

We recommend insulated steel doors with polyurethane insulation (R-value 12+). They keep your garage cooler and reduce energy costs.
