How quickly can you fix my slow movement?

We typically diagnose and repair slow movement issues within the same visit. Slow movement in garage doors is usually caused by worn rollers, lack of lubrication, track alignment problems, or spring tension issues. Our technicians carry a full inventory of common parts, so most repairs are completed in 1-2 hours. For emergencies, we offer same-hour arrival throughout our Western Washington service area. If your door is moving slowly, it's important to address it promptly before it leads to more serious (and expensive) problems.

What causes slow movement in garage doors?

Slow movement in garage doors can have several causes: 1) Worn or damaged rollers - over time, rollers can crack, flatten, or lose their smooth surface, creating friction and slowing the door. 2) Inadequate lubrication - all moving parts need regular lubrication to operate smoothly. 3) Track misalignment - if the tracks are bent or misaligned, the door will struggle to move properly. 4) Spring tension issues - weakened or broken springs can't provide enough lift assistance. 5) Opener problems - the motor, gears, or chain/belt may be wearing out. Our technicians will diagnose the exact cause and provide a lasting solution.

Do you offer financing for new traditional door installations?

Yes! We understand that a new garage door is a significant investment, which is why we offer flexible financing options to qualified customers. We partner with trusted lenders to provide 0% APR promotional financing on approved credit, low monthly payment plans, quick and easy application process, and instant approval decisions in most cases.

What is your service warranty?

We stand behind all our work with a comprehensive 10-year warranty covering both parts and labor for repairs and installations. If any issue arises with our work during the warranty period, we'll return and make it right at no additional cost. This is one of the strongest warranties in the industry, backed by our 44+ years of experience.

How often should I have my garage door serviced?

We recommend annual maintenance for optimal performance and longevity. During a maintenance visit, our technicians will lubricate all moving parts, check and adjust spring tension, inspect cables for wear, test safety features, clean and align tracks, and tighten all hardware. Regular maintenance can extend your door's life by 5-10 years and prevent costly emergency repairs. Many customers schedule their annual service in the fall before Western Washington's wet winter season.

What's included in your free estimate?

Our free estimate includes a thorough inspection of your current door system, measurement and assessment of your garage opening, discussion of your needs and preferences, detailed written quote with no hidden fees, explanation of all options and recommendations, and no pressure to make an immediate decision.

How do I know if I need a repair or replacement?

Consider replacement if your door is more than 15-20 years old, you're experiencing frequent repairs, the panels are severely damaged or warped, you want improved energy efficiency, or it no longer matches your aesthetic. Repairs are usually better if the issue is isolated, the panels are in good condition, or the door is less than 10-15 years old. During our free estimate, we'll give you an honest assessment.

What is included in your 10-year warranty?

Our comprehensive 10-year warranty covers all parts and labor for installations we perform. This includes the garage door panels, springs, cables, rollers, hinges, and opener systems.

How often should I have my garage door maintained?

We recommend professional maintenance at least once per year, ideally before winter when your door works hardest. If you use your garage door multiple times daily, bi-annual maintenance is advisable.
