How Our Spring Repair Process Works
We identify whether you need a torsion spring or extension spring replacement, since installing the wrong type damages the rest of your system. Both springs are usually replaced together, even if only one failed, since the surviving spring is typically close to failure too. Every repair ends with a full balance test.
Bloomington Homeowners We've Helped
Minnesota's winter temperature swings put extra strain on garage door springs. A spring that's fine in July can snap in a January cold snap. If your door has felt heavier than usual this season, that's often the first warning sign before a full break.
Insurance & Warranty Coverage
Spring failure from normal wear typically isn't an insurance matter, and we'll tell you that upfront rather than encourage an unnecessary claim. Every spring replacement comes with a written parts-and-labor warranty.

Bloomington homeownerFrequently Asked Questions
How do I know if it's a spring problem and not the opener?
If the door won't move even when disconnected from the opener and lifted by hand, it's almost always a spring issue.
Why do you replace both springs even if only one broke?
Springs wear down together over the same number of open-close cycles, so the surviving spring is usually close to failing too.
Is spring repair dangerous to do myself?
Yes. Torsion springs are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury. This is not a DIY repair.
How long does spring replacement take?
Most spring replacements finish within an hour once the technician is on-site.
What's the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs mount above the door on a metal rod; extension springs run along the horizontal tracks. Each needs different replacement parts.
Will a new spring fix a noisy garage door?
Often, yes. Worn springs are a common source of grinding or banging noises.
Do you carry spring parts on the truck?
Yes, our technicians carry common spring sizes so most repairs finish the same visit.
How often do garage door springs need to be replaced?
Most springs are rated for a set number of open-close cycles, typically several years of normal residential use, faster with heavy daily use.
