More than half of La Habra’s houses were built between the 1940s and ’70s, and a lot of them are still on their original torsion springs. Springs are rated for a set number of cycles — after decades of daily use, they simply give out. When one snaps, the door gets heavy fast and the opener can’t lift it.
What we do
We carry the common torsion and extension spring sizes on the truck, so most La Habra spring jobs are a single same-day visit. We replace the spring(s), rebalance the door, and check the cables and rollers while we’re in there.
Please don’t DIY a spring. They’re under extreme tension and cause serious injuries every year. This is genuinely a job for a licensed, insured pro.
How much does spring replacement cost in La Habra?
It depends on your door and spring size. Call and we’ll give you a straight number before we roll — no surprises.
Can you do it same-day?
Most days, yes — we keep common springs on the truck.
Should I replace one spring or both?
If your door has two and one broke, the other is the same age. We’ll give you the honest tradeoff on the phone.
My opener still hums — is it the opener or the spring?
Usually the spring. If it hums but won’t lift, the door’s too heavy because the spring can’t counterbalance it.
