Repairs & Servicing
We repair all types of domestic garage doors. Whether it is cables, springs, rollers, handles or electronic components, we can help. Many of the most common faults are inexpensive to repair compared to the cost of a new door. We personally offer a 12-month guarantee on all repairs and replaced parts (subject to the condition of your door).
We keep stock of the most common spares and yet even with there being such a wide range of doors and models, we can often source most new parts within a few days. Should you find yourself in the situation of your door being stuck open, and the required part(s) needs to be ordered, we can secure your door and then make a return visit once the new parts have arrived.
'Prevention is better than cure'
Garage doors have many moving parts, yet they are often overlooked when it comes to regular maintenance. We don’t hesitate to have our car or boiler serviced annually, yet the garage door—which can be used multiple times a day, every day—often goes without servicing. Just like a new car or boiler, all garage door manufacturers specify that routine servicing is required to maintain the warranty on your door.
A garage door fault caused by human error is often unavoidable, but neglecting regular maintenance can lead to inconvenient and costly issues down the line. Over time, a poorly maintained garage door may fail unexpectedly, potentially causing significant damage and/or requiring an emergency repair for new parts —far more costly than a routine service.
When cables or springs fail on an Up & Over door, the panel can drop suddenly, potentially damaging anything in its path—whether that's a vehicle, personal property, or even a person. This not only poses a serious safety risk but can also lead to much higher repair costs and inconvenience than if a routine service had been performed. While this is an example of what can happen with an Up & Over door, the same principle applies to all garage doors. All garage doors have moving parts that can wear out over time and fail if not properly maintained. Regular servicing ensures your door continues to operate smoothly while also identifying and addressing any potential issues before they become more costly or disruptive.
When we service your garage door, we will always highlight any current or potential issues we find. While it's entirely up to you whether to replace parts, you'll at least be informed of any concerns, even if you choose not to address them right away.
Customers that have contacted us after struggling to operate their garage door are often astounded at the difference a service has made. Two very common responses we hear are; 'I should have done this years ago' and 'It feels like a brand-new door'.
