Pricing
Most repairs run $150 to $500

What moves the price
- Door size and weight. A double door needs heavier springs than a single.
- One spring or two. If the door has two, replacing both at once costs less than doing it twice.
- Parts on hand. Common sizes ride on the truck, so most jobs finish in one visit. An unusual part means a second trip, and the second trip is free.
- Galvanized hardware near the water. On Bay Farm and along the shoreline it costs a little more and lasts considerably longer.
How we keep it straight
- The number you hear on the phone is the number you hear in the driveway.
- Coming out to look is free.
- If a worn gear is the fault, you get a gear. We'll show you the part.
