What garage door repairs cost in Montréal
Most companies in this trade won't put anything about price on a page. Here is exactly how ours works, what each repair includes, and what moves the number, so you can compare before anyone is standing in your driveway.
How our pricing works
The quote comes before the wrench
We measure the door, weigh it if it's wood, check the cycle count and give you a firm number. You say yes or no with full information.
One visit whenever the van allows it
Springs, cables, rollers, seals and standard openers ride on the truck. The second visit is the one that costs you a day, so we try not to need it.
The repairs we do most, and what each includes
Firm price quoted at your door, before any work. Call for today's number.
Torsion spring replacement
The most common repair we do. Price moves with door weight, spring wire size and whether you replace one spring or the pair. We quote the pair by default and explain why.
- New spring(s) rated to your door's actual weight
- Cable inspection and re-spooling
- Full balance and force test
Extension spring replacement
Common on older single-car Montréal garages with low headroom. Always replaced in pairs, always with safety cables installed if they are missing.
- Matched pair of springs
- Safety containment cables
- Pulley and bracket inspection
Cable replacement / re-spooling
A frayed or jumped cable makes the door hang crooked. Cables are replaced in pairs. A cable that snapped means its twin has the same wear.
- Matched pair of galvanized cables
- Drum alignment and re-spooling
- Door levelling
Off-track door realignment
Range depends on whether the track is straight. A clean re-rail with new rollers sits at the low end; a bent vertical track section or a damaged panel moves it up.
- Door secured and re-railed under controlled tension
- Roller replacement (nylon, quieter than steel)
- Track straightening or section replacement quoted separately
Opener repair
Sensor realignment, force and travel recalibration, gear kits, logic boards, wall consoles, remote reprogramming. If a $15 battery fixes it, that is what you pay for.
- Full diagnostic including the unit's own LED codes
- Safety reversal test to CSA/UL standard
- Parts quoted before installation
Opener replacement (supplied & installed)
Belt-drive and wall-mount units from LiftMaster, Chamberlain and Genie. Range covers a basic chain-drive at the low end through a quiet wall-mount with battery backup and Wi-Fi at the top.
- Unit, rail, remotes and keypad
- Removal and disposal of the old opener
- Wi-Fi pairing and app setup at no extra charge
What moves the price
Door weight and size
A 16-foot insulated double door needs heavier springs and more labour than a single 8-foot steel door.
One spring or two
Springs installed the same day have the same cycle count. We quote the pair by default and explain why.
Steel or wood
A maintained wood door is heavier than steel and needs a spring sized to its real weight, so we weigh it.
Repair or replace an opener
Under 10 years old with a good motor, we repair. A stripped 1990s chain-drive gets replaced, because you'd be calling again.
Questions about cost
How much does a broken spring cost to fix?
It depends on door weight, spring size and whether you replace one or two. Call, describe the door, and we'll give you the range for your case; the firm number comes at the door, before we touch anything.
What if you find something else once you start?
We stop and re-quote before touching it. You approve every number.
Do you charge more in the evening or on weekends?
Ask when you call and we'll tell you plainly before dispatching anyone. There are no surprise line items at the door.
Want a real number for your door?
Call, describe the door, and a technician gives you a firm price at your door before anything is touched.
