Same-Day Double Spring Replacement — Kempsville, Virginia Beach
The situation
"I woke up, pressed the button, heard a loud crack and the door wouldn't move. I had a meeting at 10 — I needed this fixed now."
Our diagnosis
Both torsion springs were 9 years old. One had snapped about 4 inches from the left winding cone; the other had visible rust pitting and 2 loose coils — a matter of weeks from failure itself.
What we did
Replaced both springs with a 20,000-cycle galvanized pair (a step up from the builder-grade 10k that came on the door). Re-tensioned to spec, lubricated the cables, and balanced the door to hold at 3 feet with no drift.
Time on site
90 minutes on site, including warranty paperwork.
Final price
$310 complete — $15 under the phone quote because a cable replacement she'd braced for wasn't needed.
"David came out the same afternoon, replaced both torsion springs, tuned the opener, and was gone inside 90 minutes. Quiet as new. Price was exactly what he quoted on the phone — which is rarer than it should be."
