FAQ
Common questions
Why does my torsion spring keep breaking?
Springs are rated for a set number of open-close cycles, usually somewhere around 10,000. If your house is part of the 1980s-90s wave common in this area, a lot of original springs are well past that count by now. Once one goes, the other side is usually close behind, which is why we check both even if only one snapped.
Do you work on older openers from the 90s?
Yes. Given how much of the housing here dates to that era, we see those chain-drive units regularly. Parts for very old models can take longer to source than current ones, so if yours is failing outright rather than just noisy, replacement is often the more sensible call.
How far out do you go for service calls?
We work the Alvin area and the surrounding towns within roughly a fifteen to eighteen mile ring, including places like Manvel, Dickinson, and Iowa Colony. If you're not sure whether your address is in range, just ask when you call.
Is it worth repairing an old door or should I replace it?
Depends on the door. If the panels are rusted through or the track is bent beyond adjustment, a repair is just delaying a replacement you'll pay for anyway. If it's a spring, cable, or opener issue on an otherwise sound door, repair usually makes more sense. We'll tell you which situation you're in before we quote anything.
