Garage Door Repair for Olivet homes and businesses
Most garage door faults come down to six parts: springs, cables, rollers, hinges, the opener and the track. We diagnose which one failed, quote the fix before we start, and carry the common parts on the van so the majority of calls are finished in a single visit.
We work on everything from twenty-year-old single-skin builder doors to new insulated steel and carriage-house units across Olivet. That range matters, because it means we can tell you honestly when a repair is the sensible option and when you are better off putting the money toward a door that won't need us again next winter.

The technician put down a mat before working on the concrete and swept up the metal filings. Small thing, but I noticed.

Marianne O.Garage door repair questions, answered
What's the most common garage door repair?
Broken torsion springs, by a wide margin. After that it is worn rollers, frayed or snapped cables, stripped opener drive gears and misaligned safety sensors. Between them those five faults account for the large majority of calls we take.
Can you fix a garage door that's off its track?
Yes, and it is important not to run the opener again in the meantime, because that bends the track permanently and turns a straightforward job into an expensive one. A door normally comes off track because a cable, roller or hinge failed first, so we correct that underlying fault as well as reseating the door.
How long does a typical garage door repair take?
Most repairs are done inside one to two hours on site. Spring replacement on a standard double door runs about an hour and a half, roller sets around an hour, opener gear kits about an hour, and sensor faults often under thirty minutes.
My garage door closes then immediately opens again. Why?
That is the safety reversal doing its job. Either the photo-eye sensors are misaligned or obstructed, or the close-force setting on the opener is too sensitive, or something in the track is physically stopping the door. Check the sensors first: both lights should be steady, not blinking. If they look fine, it is usually a force adjustment.
Can you replace a broken garage door spring the same day in Olivet?
Usually yes. Standard torsion springs for residential doors ride on the van, so most Olivet spring calls are completed on the first visit. Oversized, high-cycle or unusual commercial springs may need ordering, in which case we secure the door safely and return as soon as the part lands.
What brands of garage door opener do you work on?
All the common ones: LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, Sommer, Overhead Door, Marantec and Wayne Dalton, plus commercial operators. If your unit predates 1993 it has no photo-eye safety sensors, and we will recommend replacement on safety grounds rather than repairing it.
