What we fix most in Milford

Damaged panels

A bumped bumper or storm debris dents a section. If the rest of the door is sound we replace just the panel, color-matched, instead of the whole door.

Door reverses before closing

Nine times out of ten the safety sensors are misaligned or dirty. The rest of the time it's a travel-limit or force setting. Quick to diagnose, usually quick to fix.

Snapped or frayed cables

Cables usually fail at the bottom bracket. One side drops, the door racks sideways and panels bend. We replace both cables and check the drums and springs they're attached to.

Broken torsion springs

The loud bang from the garage followed by a door that's suddenly too heavy to lift. We replace springs in matched pairs, sized to the door's actual weight, so the door balances and the opener stops straining.

Garage doors and hot summers and cold winters

Big temperature swings expand and contract the tracks and change spring tension through the year, which is why doors that worked fine in September start sticking in January.

About homes in Milford

Milford has a mix of older houses with wood doors and newer subdivisions with steel doors. We carry parts for both, including the lighter extension springs older single doors use.

Questions from Milford customers

Do I need to be home?

Someone needs to let us into the garage and approve the price. After that you're free to go; we lock up and leave the invoice.

What does a new garage door cost in Milford?

It depends on size, insulation and style. The technician measures on site and gives you a written price for two or three options before you decide.

Can you replace just one spring?

We can, but we don't recommend it. Springs are installed as a matched pair and the second one fails soon after the first. Replacing both at once costs less than two visits.

Do you charge extra to come to Milford?

No. Milford is inside our regular Dover service area. The service call fee is the same, and it's applied to the repair.
