Expert Torsion & Extension Spring Repair Across the Sarnia-Lambton Region
At Sarnia Garage Pros, we understand that a broken garage door spring can completely disrupt your day. As a locally owned and operated business with over 10 years of hands-on experience, we are proud to be Sarnia’s best and most trustworthy choice for residential garage door services.
If your garage door is stuck, won't open, or makes a loud bang, you likely have a snapped torsion or extension spring. Never attempt a DIY spring replacement—these components store massive amounts of tension and can cause severe injuries. Instead, leave it to our friendly, experienced local team for fast, safe, and professional repair.
Why Garage Door Springs Break
Garage door springs have a limited life cycle, typically measured in cycles (openings and closings). Over time, constant use, temperature fluctuations in the Canadian climate, and normal wear and tear weaken the metal.
Common signs you need spring replacement include:
- A Loud Bang: Often heard from the garage, sounding like a firecracker when the spring snaps.
- Door Won't Open: The opener strains, or the door feels exceptionally heavy and refuses to lift.
- Visible Gaps: A clear break or separation can be seen along the torsion spring mounted above the door.
- Crooked Movement: The door rises unevenly or jams halfway up.
