When it's time for a pro

Things people in Dallas often describe:

  • Door won't open or close
  • Loud bang and door won't lift (often a spring)
  • Opener runs but door doesn't move

Know your Dallas house

Summer highs above 100 degrees happen most years. The Trinity River runs between Downtown and Oak Cliff.

Lake Highlands and North Dallas filled in mostly with 1960s and 1970s ranch homes. Attached and detached garages both show up here, and doors range from decades-old wood to newer insulated steel. White Rock Lake is a large park in East Dallas.

Temperature swings loosen hardware over time, and a yearly tune-up keeps rollers and springs in shape. Spring hailstorms regularly damage roofs across the city.

Local rules

Texas has no statewide license for garage door work, so check with your city about permits. Spring and cable work is dangerous because of the tension involved, so leave it to a trained tech rather than trying it yourself.

Who runs what: Dallas Water Utilities for water, Dallas Water Utilities' Central and Southside wastewater plants for wastewater and the City of Dallas Development Services department for permits. Expansive clay soil is common, and foundation movement is a frequent issue. The February 2021 winter storm burst pipes in many Dallas homes.

What happens after you call

  1. Phone in, or fill out the short form and describe what's wrong.
  2. An outside garage door company covering Dallas picks it up.
  3. The pro reaches out to set a time and explain pricing.

Before the visit

Move cars and anything stored near the door out of the way before the visit.

If an HOA manages your building, find out whether they need notice first.

What people ask us

My opener hums but the door doesn't move. Why?

A broken spring, a disengaged trolley or a stripped gear are common causes. Don't keep pressing the button. Pull the emergency release only if the door is fully closed, since a broken spring can let it drop.

What should I tell the company?

Describe what the door is doing, the opener brand if you know it and whether you heard a bang. If you know the door's approximate age or brand, that helps too.

What makes Dallas a little different for garage door repair?

Swiss Avenue in East Dallas is a historic district of large early 1900s homes. Dallas is the largest city in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Oak Cliff and Kessler Park have many 1920s and 1930s homes. Share what you know about your home when you book.

Do you cover Bishop Arts and Pleasant Grove?

We look for independent pros across Dallas, including Bishop Arts, Kessler Park, Uptown and Pleasant Grove, and ZIP codes 75051, 75201, 75202, 75203, 75204 and others. If nobody's available, we'll tell you. If you're close to a ZIP code line, mention your cross street when you call.

Can I add smart features to my opener?

Many openers support add-on Wi-Fi modules, or a newer opener can be installed. Check that your phone and home network are compatible before you buy any add-on.

Write down any error codes, noises or smells. Details like that speed things up.
