Garage Door Repairs in Phoenix Should Always Be Done By A Trained Expert


Every year over 13,000 people are injured trying to repair their garage door themselves. In most cases these injuries are not minor cuts and scrapes, but more likely to be broken bones and in extreme cases death. This is why we always recommend hiring a professional garage door repair company to handle your repairs. In most cases the amount of money you will save by doing it yourself is very minimal in comparison to the possible injuries you may incur.  

Example:

Garage door spring replacement in phoenix on average will run you between $200-$300 including service, parts, and labor. If you were to purchase the springs and try to repair it yourself the springs would range in price from $120-$200. In addition to the cost of the springs you have to account for the time spent replacing the springs. As we all know time is money and all our time is worth something. On average it takes a professional about 30-60 min to change a pair of torsion springs on a standard residential garage doors. An inexperienced homeowner may spend 2-3 times as long attempting the same repair. Let's say you believe your time is worth $20hr (I would say all of ours is worth much more) and it takes you two hours to replace the springs yourself you have now invested $160-$240 in to your garage door spring repair. You took a serious risk to save $40-$60. In most circumstances this risk is not worth the return. 

Door Tech Garage Doors Phoenix suggests to ALWAYS call a professional overhead door company to perform your garage door repair in Phoenix.
