Broken Garage Door Spring Repair
A broken spring leaves your door stuck and dangerous. We respond fast to get you back up and running safely.
(773) 801-9492A broken garage door spring is one of the most common emergency calls we get, and one of the most dangerous to ignore. When a spring snaps, the door loses its counterbalance, becomes extremely heavy, and can fall without warning.
Martinez Construction provides immediate, same-day broken spring repair across the Chicago area, with fast response for urgent, after-hours situations. We carry replacement springs on our trucks so we can fix it on the first visit.
What to do when a spring breaks
- •Stop using the door: don't try to force it open with the opener.
- •Don't attempt to lift the door manually; it may be far heavier than usual.
- •Keep kids and pets away from the door until it's repaired.
- •Call a professional: broken springs are not a safe DIY fix.
Fast, safe, same-day repair
Our technicians safely release any remaining tension, replace the failed spring (and usually its pair), and rebalance the door so your opener isn't overworked. We test everything before we leave so you know it's safe.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I still open my door with one broken spring?
You shouldn't. Operating the door with a broken spring puts dangerous strain on the opener and cables and can cause the door to fall. Call for repair instead.
Do you carry replacement springs with you?
Yes: we stock common torsion and extension springs on our trucks, so the large majority of broken-spring calls are resolved same-day.
