How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend having your garage door professionally serviced at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns, extends the life of your door and opener, and ensures safe operation. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will lubricate moving parts, check spring tension, inspect cables and hardware, test safety features, and make any necessary adjustments. If you use your garage door more frequently than average (4+ times daily), you may benefit from semi-annual maintenance. Signs that you need immediate service include unusual noises, slow operation, visible damage, or a door that doesn't close properly.

How long does a garage door installation typically take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes between 3-6 hours, depending on several factors. For a straightforward replacement where we're removing an old door and installing a new one of similar size, expect around 3-4 hours. If we need to modify the opening, install a new track system, or if you've chosen a door with custom features like windows or insulation, it may take 5-6 hours. Our team works efficiently to minimize disruption to your day. We'll provide a more accurate time estimate after assessing your specific situation during our free consultation. All installations include a full demonstration of your new door's features and safety information.

What's included in your warranty coverage?

We offer a comprehensive 5-year warranty on all our workmanship, which covers any installation or repair issues that arise from our service. This includes spring adjustments, track realignment, and any hardware we install. Additionally, the products we use come with their own manufacturer warranties—most garage doors are covered for 10-15 years on panels and hardware, while openers typically carry 5-year warranties on motors and lifetime warranties on belts or chains. Our warranty covers parts and labor for any defects, and we stand behind our work 100%. If you experience any issues, simply call us and we'll send a technician to make it right at no additional cost. We also offer extended warranty options for customers who want extra peace of mind.
