This means the springs in these homes are chronically over-stressed and fail at rates higher than comparable homes. If you've replaced your spring twice in the last 10 years, the root cause is likely an undersized spring, not just bad luck. We right-size the replacement to your door's actual weight.

Common Garage Door Problems in Benson

In Benson, the most common emergency calls we receive are for broken torsion springs — especially in January and February when temperatures drop below 0°F. Metal contracts sharply in extreme cold, and springs that are near the end of their 10,000–20,000 cycle lifespan snap under the added stress.

The attached or detached single-car configuration dominant in this area means most homes have extension spring systems that may be well past their typical 15-year lifespan. Homeowners near Benson Theatre frequently call us after the first hard freeze of the season.

From a Benson Homeowner

I'd replaced my garage door spring twice in 8 years and kept wondering why. The tech from this company was the first one who actually weighed the door and told me I'd been getting undersized springs put in. Got the right spring this time — that was 3 years ago and no issues since.
