Three jobs wear the name "garage door repair" in Richmond Hill, and only one is urgent
Almost every call we take in Richmond Hill is one of three separate jobs on the same door, and which one it is decides whether it can wait until morning, what the visit costs, and whether you should be touching it at all. The counterbalance carries the weight. The running gear lets the door travel. The opener only pushes.
Which of the three you have, without tools
Two can be told apart from the doorway. What kind of spring the door carries is worth knowing at the same time, because it changes the job.
What rides on the truck, and what a first visit in Richmond Hill fixes
The common residential torsion sizes, cables, drums, rollers, hinges, seals and the LiftMaster line we fit most all travel with the crew.
Repair or replace a Richmond Hill door, and the arithmetic behind it
Everything mechanical on a door is replaceable, so the question is never whether the part can be fixed. It is whether the door behind it is worth the parts.
Winter in Richmond Hill, and what it does to a door
Four things happen to a garage door through a Richmond Hill winter, and three of them are avoidable.
Three questions worth asking any garage door company in Richmond Hill
The spread of prices in this trade is usually in what the quote leaves out. These three close it, and they work on us as well as on anybody else.
Broken garage door in Richmond Hill: we come to you
If the door is stuck open, hanging crooked, or you heard a bang and it will not lift, call 800-522-6825 rather than filling this in — the line is answered 24 hours and that one does not wait. For a noisy door, a worn opener, a perished seal, or a price to replace the door, tell us what it is doing, roughly how old it is and whereabouts in Richmond Hill you are. A photo taken from inside the garage is worth more than any description.
Common questions about garage door repair
Should I get a 1/2 HP or 3/4 HP opener?
It follows the door, not the garage. Half a horsepower moves a standard single door and a light double; three quarters is the sensible choice for a double door, an insulated door, a wood or wood-look door, or any door that gets used many times a day. The failure mode of an underpowered opener is not that the door will not move — it is that it moves under strain for a couple of years and then strips a gear. When it is close, we go up rather than down, because the price difference between the two is much smaller than a second call-out.
How much does it cost to install a garage door opener in Canada?
The unit and the labour together, and the drive type moves it most: a chain drive is the least expensive way to get a door moving, a belt drive costs more and is the one people pick when the garage is under a bedroom, and a jackshaft costs most because it is a different machine. On top of that sits the horsepower the door's weight demands, how many remotes and keypads you want, and whether the rail and brackets can be reused. We quote the installed number with the old unit removed, so there is no second line at the end.
Do you install openers on doors you did not supply?
Yes, and that is most opener work. The door being someone else's makes no difference to fitting an opener to it. What we do check first is the balance and the hardware, because bolting a new motor onto a tired door is how a new opener becomes an early failure — if the springs are at the end of their cycles, we would rather say so and quote both than fit one and see you again.
