Our standard maintenance service fee is $65. However, if there are any repair services needed, the cost of those services will be additional and you will be quoted before any work is performed.

Our standard maintenance service includes a detailed examination of your door and motor for wear and tear. We'll lubricate all moving components and adjust the springs and tracks if necessary. This reduces squeaking from rollers, hinges, and springs, and extends the lifetime of the mechanism. A spray-on lubricant (suitable for garages in particular) is used.

We recommend that you do not attempt to do any maintenance or repairs on your own. It can be dangerous to attempt this without proper knowledge and experience, so we strongly urge you to leave everything to our experienced and trained professionals. We do suggest that you lubricate all moving parts (particularly the hinges) yourself every few months.

There are a few things you can check before calling for assistance. For example, be certain that the garage door opener is plugged in and that the electrical power is on.

If you have done these things and the opener still doesn't work, please contact us so we can assist you.
