What Maryland customers say

★★★★★

Our shop door jammed halfway on a Saturday. They came out that evening so we could open on Sunday. That mattered a lot to us.

Ola B.Chevy Chase Section Five, Maryland
★★★★★

Booked a tune-up because the door was groaning. He found a cracked roller and a loose cable drum. Cheap visit that saved an expensive one.

Greg P.Mountain Lake Park, Maryland
★★★★★

Two broken extension springs and a bent track. Fixed in one visit, no return trip, no extra charges tacked on.

Garage Door Cable Repair: common questions

My garage door is hanging crooked. Is it safe to use?

No. Stop using the opener, leave the door where it is and call us. Running a door with a broken cable can bend the tracks, damage panels and drop the door.

What causes a garage door cable to snap?

Rust from Maryland winters and road salt, fraying where the cable rubs a worn drum, or the shock load of a spring letting go. Cables are always replaced as a pair.

Can you get my door back on the track today?

In most cases, yes. Off-track doors are one of our most common Maryland emergency calls and we carry rollers, hinges and cable sets on the truck.

How fast can you get to Maryland?

Most Maryland calls are booked for the same day, and emergency jobs are usually inside a few hours. Ring (866) 651-0832 and we will give you a real arrival window on the call, not a vague promise of some time this week.

Do you charge extra for nights and weekends in Maryland?

We run a 24 hour service and quote the whole job as one flat price before we start. You will know the number for a Sunday night call before anybody picks up a tool.

Can you fix my garage door the same day?

Usually, yes. Our vans carry torsion springs, cables, rollers, hinges, sensors and common openers, so the majority of Maryland repairs are finished on the first visit without ordering parts.
