Should I repair or replace my old garage door?

This depends on several factors including the door's age, condition, and your goals. If your door is over 15-20 years old, has significant damage, or you want to improve energy efficiency and curb appeal, replacement may be the better investment. For newer doors with isolated issues, repair is often more economical. Our technicians will give you an honest assessment and help you make the best decision.

How long does a new garage door installation take?

A standard garage door installation typically takes 3-5 hours, depending on the complexity. This includes removing the old door, installing the new door and hardware, connecting the opener, and testing everything for proper operation. We handle all aspects of the installation and clean up when we're done.

What maintenance does my garage door need?
