What we repair

Common garage door problems in Kent homes

If your door is not working the way it should, one of these is usually the reason. Tell us what you are seeing and we will explain what is likely involved before anyone is dispatched.

01

Broken garage door springs

A sharp bang from the garage and a door that suddenly will not lift usually means a torsion or extension spring has snapped. Springs carry the weight of the door, so the opener cannot do the job alone.

What we do: We check spring type, size and door weight, then replace with springs matched to your door.

02

Damaged or frayed cables

Cables pull the door up evenly on both sides. Once a cable frays or snaps, the door hangs crooked and can drop or bind — continuing to run the opener makes it worse.

What we do: We inspect both cables and the drums, and replace them as a matched pair.

03

Door off its tracks

A door that has jumped the track is a safety issue, not just an inconvenience. It can fall, and it will not travel properly until it is realigned.

What we do: We realign the door, check the track for bends and replace damaged rollers or hinges.

04

Malfunctioning openers

Motor runs but the door does not move, the door reverses straight away, remotes will not sync, or the unit is dead after a power surge. Opener faults are often a worn gear, a logic board, or a safety sensor out of alignment.

What we do: We diagnose the opener and tell you whether a repair or a replacement is the better value.

05

Worn rollers and hinges

Worn or cracked rollers make the door drag, rattle and run rough. Left alone, that extra friction wears the rest of the hardware and shortens the life of your opener.

What we do: We replace worn rollers and hinges and adjust the door so it runs quietly again.

06

Noisy or stuck doors

Grinding, squealing or a door that stops halfway is usually binding, dry hardware, or a door that is out of balance. A properly balanced door opens with little effort by hand.

What we do: We lubricate and balance the system, then test a full open and close cycle with you there.

Questions before you book?

(206) 558-5680

Call for current availability. If we cannot help with your door, we will tell you.

A real diagnosis, not a guess

We look at the whole door system — springs, cables, rollers, track, opener and sensors — because the visible fault is not always the only problem.

Plain answers about what failed

You hear what broke, why it broke, and what happens if it is left alone. No jargon and no pressure to decide on the call.

Options before work begins

Repair and replacement are both explained when both are realistic, with the cost of each in writing so you can choose.

Parts matched to your door

Springs, cables and rollers are selected for your door's size, weight and track configuration rather than whatever is quickest to fit.

Safe handling of tensioned parts

Springs and cables are under heavy load. The work is done with the correct tools and procedures — this is not a job to attempt yourself.

Pricing & estimates

How garage door repair pricing works

We do not publish prices we cannot stand behind. Every repair is quoted in writing after your door has been inspected, so the number you approve is the number you pay.

01

Written, itemized estimate

Parts, labor and any applicable fee or sales tax are listed on one estimate you approve before work starts.

02

Diagnosis first

Pricing follows the inspection. Two doors with the same symptom can need different parts, so we do not quote blind.

03

You decide, either way

If the repair is not worth it, we explain the replacement option and its cost instead of pushing the first one.

What affects the price

  • Door size, weight and number of springs
  • Condition of cables, drums, track and rollers
  • Whether the opener needs repair or replacement
  • Parts, labor, any service fee, and applicable sales tax

Ask about any diagnostic or service-call fee when you call — it is stated before we schedule, and shown on your written estimate.

Questions

Garage door repair FAQs — Kent, WA

The questions homeowners ask before booking a repair.

Yes. American Standard Garage Doors LLC is based in Kent and works on residential garage doors throughout Kent and the surrounding South King County area. Call and tell us where you are and what the door is doing.

No. Do not run the opener or try to force the door up. With a broken spring the door is extremely heavy and can come down unexpectedly. Call us and we will explain what the repair involves and what to do in the meantime.

It depends on the part, the door, and what we find during the inspection. We inspect the door first, then give you a written, itemized estimate before any work starts, so you approve the number before we begin.

Ask when you call and we will tell you before anything is scheduled — including any diagnostic or service-call fee. Any such fee is shown on the written estimate along with parts, labor, and applicable sales tax.

Availability changes day to day, so we tell you honestly what is open when you call rather than quoting a window we cannot keep. Call for current availability.

Both are options we discuss. If a repair will get the door working safely and reliably, we say so. If the door is beyond economical repair, we explain why and price the replacement alongside it.

Major residential opener and door brands, including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie and Craftsman, along with both torsion and extension spring systems and the track hardware that goes with them.

Call us. A door stuck open is a security concern, so we will advise on securing it right away and get you onto the schedule as soon as we have availability.
