· Kitsilano Garage Doors
A broken spring is the #1 reason a door stops working — and the one job you shouldn't DIY. We replace springs and cables safely, usually the same day.
Every job is a fixed, upfront price — confirmed before we start, never after. Replacing springs as a matched pair is usually the smart call, so the second one doesn't snap on you a few months later.

The flat-rate price we quote is the price you pay — agreed before we start, never after. No upselling on the truck, no surprises on the invoice; if we ever spot something genuinely worth fixing, you decide.
Torsion springs do the heavy lifting every time your door moves. They're under enormous tension and wear out after thousands of cycles — and faster in Kitsilano's salt air. Call us if you notice:
We carry common spring sizes, so most repairs are completed in a single visit.
Safety first. Torsion springs store enough energy to cause serious injury. Spring replacement is genuinely not a DIY job — leave the door closed and let a trained technician handle it.
Most residential torsion-spring replacements fall in a predictable range depending on door size and whether one or both springs are replaced. We quote a fixed price on-site before any work — no surprises. Replacing springs in pairs is usually wise, as both have the same wear.
Usually the same day. A snapped spring leaves a door too heavy to lift safely, so we prioritise these calls across Kitsilano, Fairview and Point Grey.
Salt-laden coastal air accelerates corrosion, and rust pits in the steel become stress points. We fit galvanised springs and can apply a protective coating to extend their life in West-Side conditions.
Please don't. A door with a broken spring can slam shut and is dangerous to operate. Leave it closed and avoid using the opener — forcing it can damage the motor.
Yes. We regularly service original timber doors on character homes and can source or fabricate hardware to keep them working without compromising their look.
