What is your garage door doing?

Pick the closest match. You see the likely repair and its flat price.

Inside a garage looking at a closed white steel door: torsion springs on the shaft above, cable drums at each end, tracks and rollers down both sides, the opener on the ceiling with its red release cord, and safety sensors near the floor
Highlighted: the two torsion springs above the door.

Most likely

Broken torsion spring

$319

One spring, parts and labor. $449 to replace both. About 1 hour on site.

Right now: stop running the opener. Without the spring it is lifting 150 lb or more on its own and can strip its gear.

Repair or replace your garage door?

Repair the door when one part failed and the door itself is straight. A spring, a pair of cables, a set of rollers or an opener gear is a one-visit fix.

Replace the door when two or more panels are creased, when a wood door is rotting along the bottom rail, or when the repair quote passes half the price of a new garage door. One damaged section can often be replaced on its own.

Replace any opener made before 1993. It was built without safety sensors, and no repair adds them.

Springs wear out on a schedule. A standard torsion spring is rated for about 10,000 open-and-close cycles. At four cycles a day that is roughly seven years.

Who we are not for

  • Commercial roll-up and loading dock doors. We work on residential sectional doors.
  • Custom wood carriage doors that need a carpenter more than a door tech.
  • Parts you bought online. We don't install customer-supplied springs or openers because we can't warranty them.
  • The lowest number in town. A one-man shop can beat us by a few dollars. We charge a little more, post the price and put the warranty in writing.

Garage door repair in Locust Grove

Most Locust Grove subdivisions went up after 2000, off Bill Gardner Parkway, Highway 42 and around Heron Bay. Builder-grade doors came with the lightest springs that would lift them. A door hung in 2006 is on its second or third set by now, and when one spring of the pair breaks the other is close behind.

Garage door repair in Hampton

Older ranch homes near downtown often run single doors on extension springs, many without safety cables. The newer neighborhoods toward the speedway have the same builder-grade torsion springs as Locust Grove.

Questions people ask before they call

How much does it cost to replace a garage door spring in Locust Grove, GA?

Southern Crescent charges $319 to replace one torsion spring and $449 to replace both, parts and labor included. The $59 service call is waived when we do the repair.

Can I open my garage door with a broken spring?

Not with the opener. The spring does the lifting and the opener only guides the door, so running it against a dead spring can strip the gear or burn out the motor. If a car is trapped inside, call us and we will get the door up safely.

Should I replace both springs if only one broke?

Yes, on a two-spring door. Both springs were installed the same day and have opened the door the same number of times, so the second usually fails within months. Replacing the pair in one visit costs $130 more than replacing one.

How long does a garage door repair take?

Most repairs take about an hour. A spring or cable replacement runs 45 to 60 minutes, a sensor fix about 30 minutes, and a new opener about two hours.

Do you charge a trip fee?

No. There is a $59 service call that covers the diagnosis, and it comes off the bill when we do the repair. We don't add mileage in Locust Grove, Hampton, Griffin, Jackson or Jenkinsburg.
