DIY Garage Door Repair and Why It’s a Bad Idea!

When you get a problem with your garage door you may be tempted to try and fix it yourself. We all consult YouTube!

However, DIY repair can be difficult and dangerous.

Garage doors are heavy and if you don’t know what you are doing the door can actually fall off, causing personal injury or property damage. The door in the above image led to a hospital visit. Crushed fingers and bruises are common.

The springs and cables are under a lot of tension and it’s really not worth it. Howard knows what he is doing after over 30 years’ experience! And we are insured.

Honestly, it’s not worth the risk. Do your own garage door maintenance, that’s a great idea, and will save you money, but not repairs. It’s not worth it.

Call a professional.
