5 Things to Ask Your Garage Door Repair Man

 

Your garage door is one of the most important parts of your home. An attractive and well-maintained garage door improves the curb appeal and the value of your home.

 

 

You should work with a certified and licensed garage door repair service regularly to keep your investment in top shape. Here are five things you may need to ask your garage door repair technician:

 

Why is the Garage Door Not Opening?

There are many parts that work together to open and close your garage door, so there are many reasons that it may not be opening properly.

You may have a broken or unbalanced spring.

Your door could be off the track or out of alignment, or there could be an electrical problem like a tripped circuit.

There are a number of reasons that the door could not be opening properly, so you need to consult with a garage door technician to get to the bottom of the problem.

Otherwise, you won’t have use of your door, and you could risk the door experiencing bigger problems.

 

Why is the Garage Door Not Closing?

Some of the same problems that can keep your garage door from opening can keep it from also closing properly.

One of the biggest issues  with the door not closing is an interruption in the safety sensors. This is the sensor that ensures that there is nothing in the way when the door is closing.

It could be that you actually have an obstacle in the way of the garage door. There could also be potentially an electrical issue with either the sensor itself or the wiring connections.  

 

What is Causing that Noise?

Your garage door has many moving parts, and when one of them starts to wear down or breaks, it can cause all types of noises.

Occasionally, you might hear a squeaking noise when the door opens or closes, and that could indicate that the parts on the door need to be lubricated.

Clinking and grinding noises could indicate a problem with misaligned sections or loose hinges.

Allowing any of these issues to go unattended could result in more serious problems and more expensive repairs. You need to consult with a professional to get the appropriate maintenance or repairs.

 

How Frequently Does Maintenance Need to be Performed?

Different parts of your garage door will require different maintenance.

 Some things you can do yourself, like lubricating the moving parts. For example, the rollers on your door should be lubricated at least twice a year.

The best way to know what kind of maintenance plan your garage door needs is to talk to your garage door repair man and set up a schedule.

 

How Much Will this Repair Cost?

Some garage door repairs can cost under a few hundred dollars, or they can cost a lot more. It just depends on what is broken and whether a part(s) needs to be replaced.

There are ways you can keep your garage door repair costs down by keeping to a regular maintenance schedule.

You can also save money by getting repairs made when they are needed, before the problem has a chance to affect other parts and cause more issues.

Building a relationship with an experienced and trusted Arizona garage door repair service can help you save money and extend the life of your garage door.

You’ll be able to ask these and other questions, and you’ll develop a great maintenance and repair plan that will protect your door and your home.
