Why two repairs of the same name cost different amounts
Which part has gone
Swapping a spring is not the same job as re-winding a cable or replacing an opener board, and the parts alone differ before labour is counted. The repair itself is described on the garage door repair page; this guide is about what it costs.
Size and weight of the door
A double sectional carries heavier springs and longer tracks than a single roller, and a high-clearance door for a boat or caravan more again. The weight of the door, not its colour, is what drives the parts.
Salt from the estuary and the ocean
On canal and beachfront homes, salt gets into drums, brackets and track fixings years before it reaches inland suburbs. When a rusted bolt has to be cut off before the broken part can come out, the job takes longer.
Damage that followed the first fault
Running the opener against a broken spring or a slack cable is how one failed part becomes three — a bent track, a cracked section, a strained motor. If the door will not open, stop pressing the button.
When the work has to happen
Inside our published hours you pay the list price. A visit outside them, or one that has to jump the queue, adds a flat $500 — once, not as a multiplier.
A door that sat unused
Holiday homes and doors that have not moved for weeks often have seized rollers and a flat remote battery on top of the fault you called about. We price those extras separately and tell you before fitting them.
Four repair calls and where they usually land
A bang from the garage, then a door too heavy to lift
Almost always a torsion spring. It is $450 for the one spring or $600 for the pair, and the spring repair visit includes a full service either way.
The door lifts crooked and jams on one side
A cable has slipped off its drum or snapped. One side sits at the bottom of the $280–$550 range; both sides, or a rusted drum that has to be replaced, push it toward the top.
The opener hums but the door does not move
Often stripped gears or a failed board, repaired for $380–$490. If the opener is old and parts are scarce, a new one at $770–$990 can be the better spend, and we lay out both.
Grinding, then a door hanging out of its track
Worn rollers usually started it. Re-hanging the door is $440–$770, depending on how far it dropped and whether a track has bent.
When a repair stops being worth it
Most doors around Mandurah are worth repairing: one failed part on a sound door is the cheapest outcome. The sums change when several things are failing at once, and the new garage door cost guide shows what replacing it would cost instead.
Repair is usually better when
- The door, tracks and frame are straight and solid
- One part has failed — a spring, a cable, a roller, a sensor
- Parts for that brand and model are still easy to get
- The repair leaves the door balanced, quiet and safe to run
Replacement may be better when
- Several panels are dented, rusted through or delaminating
- Repairs are coming round every few months
- The opener and the door are both near the end at the same time
- You want insulation, a quieter door or a different style anyway
How your repair gets priced
Tell us what happened
A bang, a grinding noise, a door stuck halfway — what you heard and saw narrows the likely part before we arrive.
Send a photo if you can
One shot of the springs above the door, or of the panel or track, lets us bring the right part the first time.
We inspect and name the price
At the door we confirm the cause and give you the figure from the garage door price list before starting. You decide whether we go ahead.
We fix it and test it
The repair is done, the balance checked and the safety-reverse tested before we leave. The invoice matches what you agreed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most repairs land between $165 and $550–$1,100. The common ones: a broken spring $450 (or $600 for a pair), a cable $280–$550, an opener repair $380–$490 and a door off its track $440–$770. All of those include GST, and the exact figure is agreed on site before work starts.
A broken torsion spring, by a distance. Springs are rated for a set number of open-and-close cycles, so a door used several times a day reaches the end sooner. It costs $450 for one spring, and our spring repair visit includes a full service of the door.
When only one part has gone and the door itself is sound, fixing it wins easily — even the dearest common repair, a new panel at up to $1,100, is well under the cost of a new door. Replacement starts to make sense when the panels themselves are rusted or damaged and several parts are wearing out together.
Because we already have the door's tension off and the hardware in our hands. Folding the $165 service into the $450 and $600 spring prices means the rollers, hinges, cables and opener settings get checked on the same visit, with no second charge.
A flat $500 is added to the normal job price for work outside our published hours or a call that cannot wait. It is added once, never multiplied, and you hear about it before we set off.
Not if a spring or cable has gone. The opener ends up lifting the full weight of the door, which strains the motor and can bend tracks or crack a section — turning one repair into several. Leave it closed, or if it is stuck open, call us; our page on a broken spring or cable explains what is safe to do meanwhile.
