Snapped spring, frayed cable, or an opener that quit? Call or text and tell us what the door is doing. We repair most brands and install new Haas and C.H.I. doors.
Quick answer: We fix springs, cables, rollers, openers and panels across Madison. The estimate is free. Same-day repair is often possible when parts are on hand.
Madison is the state capital and the Dane County seat, with roughly 270,000 people. The middle of the city sits on the isthmus between Lake Mendota and Lake Monona. We put the east side of Madison first. Our crew comes in from the east, so east side calls are the easiest to fit into the day. We still handle overhead door repair in Madison on the west side, downtown and the south side too.
Some older isthmus homes have a detached garage at the back of the lot. These garages often have a single-car door, older track, and an opener that was added long after the garage went up. If the wood jambs the tracks bolt into have rotted, we may need to replace them first. Before we quote a new opener for one, we check the power supply, the headroom above the door, and the door balance. An opener cannot fix a door that is too heavy to lift by hand.
A narrow driveway or a cramped garage makes a door hard to reach. If you can, move cars out of the way before we get there. Clear the space above and beside the door as well, since the springs and the opener hang there. If the door is stuck shut with your car inside, say so when you call. We plan the visit around getting it open first.
Madison streets get salted all winter. Each time you pull in, slush drips off the car and pools along the door. After a few winters that wears out the rubber seal and can rust the bottom panel and the ends of the tracks. Sweep the water away on mild days. Check the seal each fall. If it is cracked or flat in spots, replace it before the snow comes.
We come into Madison from the east, so the east side is the part of the city we reach most easily. If you live there and a spring just snapped, call and tell us. We will give you a straight answer on when we can come. A broken spring makes the door far too heavy to lift, so leave it closed and do not run the opener until it is fixed.

Yes. Some older isthmus homes have a detached garage at the back of the lot. We repair those doors and openers the same way as an attached garage. Tell us where the garage sits when you call so we know where to park.
Usually, yes. Most older doors still use a standard torsion or extension spring. We measure the old one and match the new spring to the weight of your door. If cables or rollers are also worn, we point that out and price it before any work starts.
No. The east side comes first because we drive in from that direction. We cover all of Madison, including the isthmus, downtown, the west side and the south side.
