Garage Door Spring Repair
How to Tell Your Garage Door Spring Is Broken
Garage door springs carry the full weight of the door. When one breaks, the opener cannot lift the door on its own and the door becomes dangerous to move by hand.
The Loud Bang
A snapped torsion spring releases hundreds of pounds of tension at once. Most homeowners hear it from inside the house and find the door will not open afterward.
A Gap in the Coil
Look at the spring above the door. A broken torsion spring shows a clear gap between two sections of coil. A broken extension spring hangs slack along the track.
Door Will Not Lift, or Sits Crooked
The opener strains and stops, or the door lifts a few inches and drops. One broken spring on a two-spring door pulls the door crooked in the opening.
Do Not Touch It
A loaded garage door spring is under hundreds of pounds of tension. Replacing it takes winding bars, the right spring size, and training. Leave the door where it is and call.

My garage door broke unexpectedly around 1:00 PM, and by the time I called Crystal at 4:00 PM, I was already stressed about how long it might take to fix. To my surprise, a technician was onsite by 5:30 PM the same day... After the repair, Crystal personally followed up to make sure everything was working properly. That level of care is rare these days.Kenroy G. Google · May 2026Read the original →
I had an emergency in which my son accidently crashed into the garage door and knocked it down. I called these guys immediately and they were able to come out that same day. They had my garage door good as new by the end of the day. I won't go anywhere else now, but them.Pedro A. Google · May 2026Read the original →

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know my garage door spring is broken?
The usual signs are a loud bang from the garage, a door that will not lift or lifts a few inches and drops, a door that sits crooked in the opening, or a visible gap in the coil of the torsion spring above the door. If you see any of these, stop using the door and call.
What is the difference between a torsion spring and an extension spring?
A torsion spring is mounted on a shaft above the door and winds to lift it. Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks on each side and stretch to lift the door. Both wear out after a set number of cycles, and both are replaced the same day by our trained local team.
Can I replace a garage door spring myself?
We do not recommend it. A loaded garage door spring holds hundreds of pounds of tension, and replacing it takes winding bars, the correct spring size for the door, and training. Leave the door where it is and call for same-day service.
Should I replace one spring or both?
On a two-spring door we recommend replacing both. Springs wear at the same rate, so when one has broken the other is usually close behind. Replacing both avoids a second service call within months, and your written quote shows both options so you decide.
What does a spring replacement visit include?
The broken spring is replaced with the correct size for your door, the cables and bearings are inspected and replaced if worn, the door is balanced, and the opener is tested. You receive a written price before any of that work starts.
How fast can you replace a broken garage door spring?
In most cases the same day you call. Our trained local team covers the Albany Capital Region from Latham, NY, and carries the common residential spring sizes.
