3 Signs it's time to call a garage door repair professional

When you first bought your home, you were ecstatic to have your own garage. Perhaps you previously lived in a home that didn't have a garage, or you rented an apartment where you had to share the garage with another tenant. Either way, you were thrilled to have a garage to call your own. 

However, maybe it wasn't long before your garage started acting strangely, and you couldn't quite seem to figure out how to fix it. If that sounds like you, we'd like to pinpoint some signs that indicate that it's time for you to contact a garage door repair professional.

Sign #1: Your door has a slow response time - When you press the button on your garage door remote, it might take a second or two for it to respond. That response time is completely normal. However, if it takes longer than that, or if it seems to experience delays during motion, it's probably time to have it checked out to make sure nothing is wrong. 

Sign #2: The door is very loud when opening and closing - You'd expect some sound when you open and close your garage door. However, if you're noticing that it's making more noise than it did a few months ago, something could be wrong with the spring, or even with the opener itself. 

Sign #3: The door comes off the tracks - In order for your garage door to operate properly, it needs to stay on the tracks at all time. When the door begins to sag, or when there's been some type of damage done to the door, it can easily become dislodged. If your door is no longer on the tracks, a professional can advise you as to how to fix it.
