Signs your spring is broken
- A bang like a gunshot. A torsion spring holds enough tension to lift the whole door. When it snaps, the sound can carry through the house, often when nobody is touching the door.
- A gap in the coil. Look at the spring on the bar above the closed door. A broken torsion spring shows a clear gap of a few inches between two sections of coil.
- The door lifts a few inches, then stops. The opener isn’t built to lift the full weight. Without the spring, it strains for a moment, then stops or reverses.
- The door suddenly feels very heavy. Springs do the lifting, not you or the opener. With a broken spring, a double door can weigh well over 100 pounds.
- Loose or hanging cables. Lift cables go slack when spring tension is lost. They can jump off the drums at the ends of the bar and tangle.
If the door is open when a spring breaks, don’t pull the red release cord. The door can drop hard without spring tension.

How much does garage door spring repair cost in Houston?
It depends on the spring type and size, whether you replace one spring or both, and the time of day. Ask for the total price, including parts, labor and any service call fee, before you agree to the work. Ask for it in writing if you can.
Should both springs be replaced?
If your door has two springs, most technicians replace both. They were installed together and have the same number of cycles, so the second one is usually close behind.
