At Walpole Garage Doors, we understand that a broken spring is an emergency—your car is likely trapped in the garage! That's why we offer 30-minute response time for spring repairs. In most cases, we can have a technician at your home within an hour of your call.
Our service trucks are fully stocked with springs in various sizes and strengths, so we can typically complete the repair in a single visit. A standard spring replacement takes 1-2 hours, depending on whether one or both springs need replacement.
We recommend replacing both springs at the same time, even if only one has broken. Springs have a limited lifespan (typically 7-10 years or 10,000 cycles), and if one has failed, the other is likely near the end of its life too. Replacing both ensures balanced operation and prevents a second service call in the near future.
Our spring repairs come with a 3-Year warranty on parts and labor. We use high-quality springs rated for 25,000+ cycles—significantly longer than the industry standard. Call 1-802-858-4143 for immediate spring repair service.
