Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions homeowners ask us:
How quickly can you fix my slow movement?
In most cases, we can diagnose and repair slow-moving garage doors the same day you call. Slow movement is typically caused by issues with the springs, tracks, or lubrication—all of which our technicians are equipped to handle on the spot. For Pollocksville and surrounding areas, we offer immediate dispatch during business hours. If you call before noon, we can often have your door operating smoothly by the end of the day.
What causes slow movement in garage doors?
Several factors can cause a garage door to move slowly: worn or weakening springs that can no longer support the door's weight, lack of proper lubrication on tracks and rollers, misaligned tracks creating friction, a failing or underpowered garage door opener, or temperature-related issues where cold weather thickens lubricants. During our inspection, we'll identify the exact cause and recommend the most cost-effective solution, whether that's a simple lubrication service or component replacement.
Do you offer financing for new traditional door installations?
Yes, we understand that a new garage door is a significant investment in your home. We offer flexible financing options to help make your new traditional raised panel steel door more affordable. Our financing plans include low monthly payments, competitive interest rates, and quick approval processes. We also offer seasonal promotions and discounts for seniors, veterans, and first-time customers. Contact us for a free quote and to discuss which financing option works best for your budget.
What is your service warranty?
We stand behind our work with a comprehensive 2-Year Warranty on all labor and services. Additionally, all parts we install come with manufacturer warranties, typically ranging from 5 to 25 years depending on the component. For new garage door installations, we offer our exclusive lifetime warranty guarantee on craftsmanship. If anything goes wrong with our work, we'll make it right—no questions asked.
How often should I have my garage door serviced?
We recommend professional maintenance at least once a year, ideally before winter when garage doors work hardest. However, if your door gets heavy use—such as in a home business or with multiple daily openings—twice-yearly service is advisable. Regular maintenance extends your door's lifespan by 50%, prevents costly emergency repairs, and ensures your family's safety. Our maintenance plan includes lubrication, spring tension adjustment, track alignment, and a complete safety inspection.
Do you service all garage door brands?
Absolutely! Our technicians are trained and certified to work on all major garage door brands including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Wayne Dalton, Amarr, Clopay, and more. Whether you have a traditional, contemporary, or custom door, we have the expertise and parts to keep it running perfectly. We also service both residential and light commercial garage doors.
