Common garage door problems in Rotherham
Springs and cables
Worn springs make a door heavy, and a failed cable makes it hang crooked. We replace both and re-balance the door.
Double garage doors
Wide doors on double garages work hard. We repair and service them, and fit new single wide sectional doors or pairs of doors.
Openers and remotes
Motors that hum but won’t move, doors that stop halfway, remotes that no longer work. We repair all makes of opener.

Garage doors in Rotherham homes
Rotherham has 1930s and post-war semis with garages at the side, plenty of ex-council homes with garages in blocks, and larger detached houses with double garages in areas such as Wickersley, Bramley and Whiston.
Whatever the door, the common problems are the same: springs and cables wear, locks seize and openers fail. We carry the common parts, so most repairs are done on the first visit, and when a door is past saving we give you a free quote for a new one.
