Frequently Asked Questions

How often does my garage door need maintenance?

You should have routine maintenance performed on your garage door at least once a year. This will keep your garage door operating smoothly and extend its lifespan, saving you hassle and money in the long run. But if your door is used heavily or you’re in a harsh climate, some garage door maintenance tasks may need to be done more often. 

Garage door maintenance usually costs between $100 and $300. If any repairs or part replacements are needed, costs may run higher. 

Every time we perform garage door maintenance, we inspect tracks, door panels, weatherstripping, and any moving parts to ensure that all parts are clean and in good working order. We clean and lubricate the tracks and other moving parts and test the opener and sensors to ensure they work. Our technicians will perform any other maintenance or repairs as needed!

Sensor problems and spring failures are the most frequently reported problems, with sensor misalignment being particularly common and relatively easy to diagnose and fix. Other common problems include track misalignment and opener malfunctions. 

The length of time a residential garage door lasts with proper maintenance varies from 15 to 30 years. It depends on the type of material the door is made of and how often it is used.

Silicone-based lubricants are considered the best option for garage doors in cold weather. They are incredibly weather-resistant and perform well in low temperatures. They usually dry without leaving any residue, work well on any garage door part, and provide long-lasting protection.
