Maintenance Tips
After we complete a garage door repair in Ottawa you don’t want us to come back next year to fix it again, we want our work to last for a long time. That’s why it’s important to maintain the system to make sure that it will stay working reliably and safely in the long run. Regular maintenance not only extends the life of your garage door but also helps prevent future breakdowns and costly repairs or replacements.
Here are some simple yet effective maintenance tips you can follow:
1. Keep the Tracks Clean and Aligned
Over time, dirt, grime, and debris builds up, making your garage door not feel as smooth anymore. Give your tracks a quick wipe down about every month while also checking for any signs of misalignment.
2. Lubricate Moving Parts
Apply a silicone-based lubricant to rollers, hinges, and the opener rail every few months. The lubricant makes it so there’s less resistance and friction, reducing wear while keeping your garage door smooth and quiet.
3. Test the Auto-Reverse Safety Feature
Your garage door should reverse automatically if the sensors detect something in the way. Place an item like a 2×4 on the ground and close the door. If it doesn’t reverse, contact us right away as this is a critical safety feature.
4. Take a Look at Your Springs and Cables
Check for signs of wear, rust, or fraying on both the torsion springs and cables. These parts are constantly under high tension so do not try to repair or replace them, leave it to our trained professionals.
5. Tighten Hardware Periodically
Using your garage door causes a lot of vibrations which will loosen nuts and bolts over time. That’s why it’s important to check and tighten them down at least twice a year.
6. Check Weatherstripping and Seals
Make sure the bottom seal and side weatherstripping are properly sealed without any gaps or tears in them. This improves energy efficiency, keeps out pests, and protects your garage from the elements.
7. Listen for Unusual Noises
Some garage doors are loud, but it’s not supposed to squeak, grind, or rattle when you use it. These are usually signs that something’s wrong. Don’t ignore them, catching issues early can prevent more serious damage and even costly repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my garage door slamming shut?
A garage door that slams shut is often caused by an issue with the garage door opener’s settings, spring tension, or safety sensors. If the door closes too quickly or there’s no resistance, it’s a safety hazard and can cause damage over time. Worn-out springs or misaligned tracks can also contribute to this problem.
Why is my garage door stuck half open?
If your garage door gets stuck halfway, it could be due to:
- Misaligned or damaged tracks
- Broken or loose cables
- Faulty rollers
- Debris in the path
This issue not only disrupts daily use but can also pose a safety hazard. Our technicians are trained to quickly diagnose and resolve these issues, getting your door back to normal safely, and efficiently.
What is the average lifespan of a garage door?
A well-maintained garage door can last anywhere from 15 to 30 years, depending on the type of door and how much it’s used. Regular maintenance and repairs can help extend its life. If your door is starting to show signs of wear, it might be time for a checkup to keep it working smoothly.
How to know if a garage door spring is broken?
A broken spring is usually pretty easy to spot. If your door isn’t moving or seems very heavy to lift, that’s a sign the spring might be broken. You may also hear a loud snapping sound when the spring breaks. If you think you have a broken spring, don’t try to fix it yourself, springs are under a lot of tension, and are dangerous. Let one of our professionals help you out!
Why is my garage door not closing and going back up?
If your garage door starts closing and then goes back up, it could be due to a few different issues. Often, it’s a safety sensor problem, where the sensors are misaligned or blocked by something. Other reasons include issues with the tracks, springs, or even the opener itself. Our team can take a look and fix it quickly so your door works properly again.
How much does it cost to repair a garage door?
Garage door repair costs in Ottawa can vary, depending on the issue. Our goal is to always provide you a high quality repair while keeping it affordable, so our garage door repair services start at $120.
Is it worth repairing an old garage door or should I replace it?
That depends on the condition and age of the door. If the damage is minor, like a broken spring, worn rollers, or misaligned tracks, repairing can be the most cost-effective option. But if your garage door is over 15–20 years old, needs frequent fixing, or has structural damage, it makes more sense to invest in a new door.
Why does my garage door make loud noises when opening or closing?
A noisy garage door can be caused by several issues, including loose hardware, worn-out rollers, dry hinges, or a misaligned track. In some cases, the noise could be coming from the opener itself, especially if it’s an older chain-driven model. Regular lubrication and maintenance can reduce noise, but if the sounds are grinding, screeching, or popping, it could be a sign that a part is failing.
How do I fix a garage door that’s off track?
If your garage door has come off its tracks, it’s best to not use it until it’s repaired, forcing it can bend the tracks or damage the door panels. An off-track door usually happens because of a broken cable, impact with the door, or worn rollers. This kind of repair often requires safely releasing tension from the springs, realigning the tracks, and checking for hidden damage. Because of the safety risks involved, you should not do a DIY fix and it is recommended to get help from one of our professionals.
