Why being local matters for a broken door
A garage door usually breaks at a bad moment: at 7 a.m. with the car inside, or at night with the door stuck half-open. Our parts, springs and cables are stocked in Nepean, so a same-day visit is realistic and the truck usually already carries the right part. You'll get a written price before any work begins.
What we repair in Nepean
Broken springs
A loud bang, a visible gap in the spring above the door, or a door that suddenly weighs a tonne all point to a broken torsion spring. Don't force the door or keep pressing the opener. We match the replacement spring to your door's weight and height, then rebalance the door so it stays put when you let go of it halfway up.
Price: $250–$350 per spring installed, and we recommend replacing both. → Spring repair details
Frayed or snapped cables
Cables take the most wear where they hook onto the bottom brackets at floor level. That's where winter slush and road salt collect, so rust and fraying start there. A door that hangs crooked or has a loose cable on one side shouldn't be used. We replace both cables, and the bottom brackets too when they're corroded.
Price: $170–$220 parts and labour per cable set (both sides). → Cable repair details
Openers: repair or replace
A motor that hums but doesn't move the door, a door that reverses before it closes, or dead remotes are usually fixable: drive gears, limit and force settings, safety sensors or a receiver. If your opener is old and loud, or you want phone control and battery backup, we'll quote a replacement next to the repair so you can compare.
Repairs typically $150–$280; a new opener installed $700–$950 (chain-drive $700–$750, belt-drive $750–$850, smart WiFi $850–$950). → Opener repair & installation
Off-track doors and bent tracks
Clipping the door with a car bumper, a broken cable, or a roller jumping out of a worn track can leave the door crooked or jammed. Leave it where it is, since forcing it can bend the panels. We straighten or replace the tracks and rollers, re-hang the door and check its balance.
Typical realignment $150–$300; replacing track sections is quoted on site (track work ranges $150–$450). → Track repair details
New garage door installation
When panels are cracked or rusted through, or you're tired of a cold, drafty garage, a new insulated door (R-12 or R-18 options) is often the better investment. The price includes the door, tracks, springs, hardware, weather sealing, haul-away of the old door, and testing.
Price: $1,900–$3,500 installed, depending on size and style. Most installs finish in a day. → New door installation
Tune-ups and smaller fixes
Noisy rollers, worn bottom seals that let snow blow in, and doors that shudder can all be handled in a single visit. See maintenance, weather seals and panel repair.
