Garage Door Garage Door Broken Spring Repair Orlovista, FL
Our garage door broken spring repair service covers all of Orlovista: Timberleaf, Carver Shores, West Colonial and Washington Shores. Set in Florida's humid subtropical region, these doors face frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals, storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, and salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore, and we plan every repair around it.
Garage doors in Orange County live with hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. For Orlovista that means watching for frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals, storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, and salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore; we factor it into every repair and every new-door spec.
Orlovista homeowners usually call us about one of a few things: moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, and mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors. We diagnose the real cause — not just the symptom — before quoting a flat rate.
A broken garage door spring is one of the most common — and most disruptive — failures on a residential garage door. The failure itself is typically sudden: a loud bang from the garage, often mistaken for a gunshot or a transformer blowing. After the bang, the door becomes nearly impossible to lift by hand and the opener strains and refuses to move it. Cars get trapped inside, household routines disrupt, and the homeowner needs immediate service. Our broken-spring response averages under 90 minutes from call to on-site nationwide.
Every broken-spring visit follows the same protocol. Diagnose the failure (which spring, extent of any collateral damage), present a flat-rate quote (standard spring vs. 30,000-cycle upgrade), replace the spring(s), inspect cables and drums for accelerated wear (cables often need replacement alongside springs after a long service life), recalibrate door balance, and re-program the opener's travel and force limits to match the new spring tension. Most visits complete in 60–90 minutes.
We strongly recommend replacing both springs on dual-spring doors. The unbroken second spring is statistically days or weeks from failing — it has the same cycle history as the broken one. Replacing both costs less than two separate dispatches and properly re-balances the system.
Snapped torsion spring makes a distinct crack that sounds like a gunshot. Inspect for a 2-inch gap between coils on the spring above the door.
Door won't open with the remote
Modern openers refuse to lift the door without spring assistance. Failure to lift is a strong indicator of spring failure.
Door hard or impossible to lift by hand
Disconnect the opener and try lifting. A door with a broken spring is roughly 1.5–2× as heavy to lift, often impossible solo.
Visible coil gap or hanging spring fragment
Walk into the garage and look at the spring shaft above the door. A gap between coils or visibly broken section confirms spring failure.
Opener motor strains, door barely moves
If the opener tries and the door inches up but fails to fully open, the spring has either snapped or lost critical tension.
Common causes & what we fix
Cycle fatigue end-of-life
Builder-grade springs hit their cycle rating around 7–10 years of typical use. Failure is sudden but predictable on a curve.
Single-spring on heavy door
Single-spring installs on doors that should have dual springs see faster fatigue. Common in older builder installs.
Coastal corrosion
Salt-air pitting weakens uncoated springs. Coastal homes can see springs fail at 60% of cycle rating.
Missing maintenance
Dry, un-lubricated springs fatigue faster. Annual lubrication during a tune-up materially extends life.
Cold weather brittleness
Cold mornings can be the trigger for a fatigued spring to snap. The failure was coming anyway; cold tipped it over.

Yes.

Same licensed, insured crews and 10-year workmanship guarantee county-wide.
Orlovista sits in hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. That is hard on a door — frequent thunderstorms that drive rain into tracks and seals, storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, and salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, and mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors. We size springs and seals for Florida's humid subtropical region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
Yes if your door has dual springs. The unbroken spring has the same cycle history and is days to weeks from failing. Replacing both costs less than two separate visits and properly re-balances the door.
Worth it for most households. A modest amount more than standard, 3× the lifespan, and we back it for the life of the original homeowner.
We strongly discourage it. The door is heavy and unbalanced — lifting it manually risks injury. If you must (e.g., to remove a car), get two people, lift slowly, and prop securely. Wait for repair if at all possible.
Average response is 78 minutes in cities where we keep a local crew. Sub-60 minute response is common in dense coverage areas.
