Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
A 'Basic' job typically involves replacing a single extension spring or a very basic torsion spring at $150–$275. A 'Mid-range' job, priced at $275–$425, usually includes replacing two extension springs or a standard torsion spring system rather than a single spring.
A job will likely fall into the 'Premium' tier if it involves replacing a heavy-duty torsion spring system, specialized spring types, or when related parts need to be replaced in addition to the springs. Larger or heavier doors often require these more expensive springs and services.
Torsion springs typically cost more than extension springs due to their more complex design, increased durability, and the specialized tools and expertise required for their safe installation and adjustment. They often offer a longer lifespan and better performance for heavier doors.
For extension springs, it is highly recommended to replace both when one breaks to ensure balanced operation and prevent the remaining, often similarly aged, spring from failing soon after. For torsion springs, sometimes only one spring needs replacement, but assessing the condition of the remaining one is crucial.
Common related parts that may need replacement include cables, drums (for torsion systems), bearings, and sometimes even the entire garage door opener if excessive strain from a broken spring has caused damage. These additional parts and their labor can contribute to a higher overall job cost.
