Door won't open, won't close, or is making a noise you have never heard before.
Most repairs finished in one visitA broken torsion or extension spring is the single most common garage door failure and the one you should never try to handle yourself.
Springs replaced in pairs, same dayOpeners fail in predictable ways: gears strip, logic boards die, safety sensors drift out of line.
Repair first, replace only if it is worth itWhen a lift cable snaps or jumps the drum, the door drops on one side and comes off its track.
Off-track doors re-set and re-balancedA garage door stuck open is an open door to your house.

Our technicians work out of vehicles rather than a single shop, which is how we keep same-day appointments across the Washington suburbs of Montgomery County. As well as Glen Echo we regularly cover the towns below.
Emergency calls are taken live, not logged for the morning. A door stuck open is a security problem and we treat it that way.
Torsion springs, cables, rollers, hinges, sensors and openers ride with the technician, so most visits are a single visit.
You get a flat number for the whole job before any work begins. If the price changes, it is because you asked for something else.
A stripped gear does not need a new opener. We fix what can be fixed and say so plainly when replacement is the better buy.
Spring went at 5am, I called at 5:15 and the truck was here before 8. He showed me the broken coil, gave me the price, and it was done in under an hour.
Marcus D.Glen Echo, MarylandTwo broken extension springs and a bent track. Fixed in one visit, no return trip, no extra charges tacked on.
Victor H.Glen Echo, MarylandQuoted three companies for a new insulated door. These guys were the only ones who measured properly and the only ones whose price did not move at the end.
Dan W.Glen Echo, MarylandUsually, yes. Our vans carry torsion springs, cables, rollers, hinges, sensors and common openers, so the majority of Glen Echo repairs are finished on the first visit without ordering parts.
All of the common ones: Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, Overhead Door, Raynor, CHI, LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman and Sommer, plus plenty of older doors nobody makes any more.
If the panels are sound and only the hardware has failed, repair is almost always the better buy. Once sections are cracked, rusted through or the door is past twenty years of hard use, replacement usually costs less over the next five years. We will tell you which it is.
It depends on what broke. A tune-up is the cheapest visit we sell, spring and cable work sits in the middle, and opener or panel replacement is higher. You get one flat written price for your specific door before any work starts.
We run a 24 hour service and quote the whole job as one flat price before we start. You will know the number for a Sunday night call before anybody picks up a tool.
Most Glen Echo calls are booked for the same day, and emergency jobs are usually inside a few hours. Ring (866) 651-0832 and we will give you a real arrival window on the call, not a vague promise of some time this week.
