Written down, before you call. These are the ranges a job on the Peninsula actually runs, and you approve the exact number before we start.
| Job | Price | What it covers |
|---|---|---|
| Spring replacement | $200 to $330 | About an hour on site. If the door runs two springs, replacing both together is usually the better call, because they wear at the same rate and the second one tends to follow within months. |
| Opener repair | $200 to $400 | Covers the common failures: the drive gear, the logic board, the travel limits and sensors out of alignment. What it costs depends on which of those it turns out to be. |
| Cable replacement | $200 to $350 | Cables are replaced in pairs. A frayed cable on one side means the other has done the same work over the same years. |
| Off-track repair | $200 to $400 | Price depends on what put the door off the track. A roller out of the curve is quick. A bent track or a panel that took the impact adds parts. |
| Roller set | $250 to $400 | Ten rollers on a standard door. Nylon runs quieter than steel and is what makes the difference on a door that grinds. |
| New door installed | $1,500 and up | Steel, insulated steel and wood, sized to the opening. The figure covers the door, the track, the hardware and taking the old door away. |
Prices are for San Mateo, Foster City, Belmont, Burlingame, Hillsborough, San Carlos, Millbrae and Daly City.
What each of these jobs involves is described under garage door repair services, and openers have their own page: opener repair and replacement.
A spring is a spring. A door that came off its track because a panel is bent is two jobs, and we say so before we start rather than after.
Doors run either a single spring or a pair. When there are two and one has gone, the second is the same age and has done the same work, so replacing both together is usually the cheaper decision over a year.
A double door carries roughly twice the load of a single, which means heavier springs, heavier cables and more hardware. A double sits toward the top of each range.
Standard hardware is stocked on the truck. An older or unusual setup can mean ordering a part, and that is the one thing that turns a same-day job into a two-visit job.
Most problems are recognizable from the description, so we can usually tell you the likely range before we come out.
The range narrows to a number once we can see which part failed and what it took with it.
Nothing starts until you have heard the price and said yes.
On completion, once the door is running and you have watched it cycle.
Planning a replacement rather than a repair? Pricing and materials are on the new garage door installation page. Call (650) 376-6070 and describe what the door is doing.
$200 to $330 installed for a single torsion spring, and the job takes about an hour. If the door runs two springs, replacing both at once is usually the better call, because they wear at the same rate and the second one tends to follow within months.
Between $200 and $400 for the great majority of them. The three usual causes are a broken torsion spring at $200 to $330, an opener fault at $200 to $400, or a snapped cable at $200 to $350. We can normally narrow it to one of those on the phone from what the door is doing.
$1,500 and up, covering the door, the track, the hardware and taking the old door away. Material and size are what move it. A single steel door is at the bottom of that range and an insulated double or a wood door is well above it.
Cables are $200 to $350 and a full nylon roller set is $250 to $400. Cables are always replaced in pairs, because a frayed cable on one side means the other has done the same work over the same years. A roller set is ten rollers on a standard door, and nylon is what quiets a door that grinds.
$200 to $400. A roller that has jumped out of the curve is at the low end and quick. A bent track or a panel that took the impact adds parts, and that is what moves it up. Stop using the door until it is looked at, because every cycle off the track does more damage.
The exact number comes when we can see the door, and you hear it before any work starts. The range on this page is what each job honestly runs across the Peninsula. A single figure published on a website, given without seeing the door, is a figure that changes once someone is standing in your driveway.
A job at seven in the evening costs the same as one at ten in the morning, and a Sunday costs the same as a Tuesday. We are open 7:00 AM - 8:00 PM, Sunday through Friday, and closed on Saturday. The price of the job is the price of the job.
No charge. We look at the door, tell you what it needs and what it costs, and the decision is yours.
Payment is on completion, once the door is working and you have seen it run.
Call before early afternoon and we can usually get out the same day.
