Signs You Need a New Garage Door
While repairs can extend door life, these signs indicate it's time to consider replacement:
Age Over 15-20 Years
Older doors lack modern safety features, insulation, and security technology
Frequent Repairs Needed
Multiple repairs in recent years indicate the door is nearing end of life
Severe Damage
Major panel damage, warping, or structural issues make replacement more economical than repair
Poor Energy Efficiency
Garage is extremely hot or cold, driving up energy costs due to poor insulation
Outdated Appearance
Door style no longer matches your home or neighborhood aesthetics
Safety Concerns
Door lacks modern safety sensors, auto-reverse, or has become dangerous to operate

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a garage door installation take?
Complete installation typically takes 4-8 hours depending on door size, style complexity, and whether we're removing an old door. Most single-car installations are completed in 4-6 hours. Double-car or custom doors may take a full day. We complete everything in one visit.
Should I repair or replace my garage door?
If your door is under 10 years old and needs minor repairs, repair usually makes sense. For doors over 15 years old, or when repair costs exceed 50% of replacement cost, new installation offers better value plus modern features, better insulation, and improved safety.
What's the best garage door material?
Steel is the most popular choice for its durability, low maintenance, and value. Aluminum is ideal for modern designs and coastal areas. Wood offers classic beauty but requires maintenance. Composite gives wood appearance without upkeep. We'll recommend the best material for your climate, budget, and style.
Do I need an insulated garage door?
If your garage is attached, has living space above it, or you use it as workspace, insulation is worth the investment. Insulated doors (R-value 12-18) reduce energy costs, operate more quietly, and are more durable. For detached garages used only for parking, non-insulated doors work fine.
Can you match my existing garage door style?
In most cases, yes. We work with multiple manufacturers offering hundreds of styles and colors. Bring us a photo or model number and we'll find a match or recommend similar options. For custom or very old doors, we may suggest coordinating alternatives.
What garage door brands do you recommend?
We install and recommend Clopay (industry leader), Amarr (excellent value), Wayne Dalton (innovation), and C.H.I. (quality construction). Each brand offers different strengths. During consultation, we'll explain options and help you choose the best brand for your needs and budget.
Do new garage doors come with a warranty?
Yes. Warranty varies by manufacturer and door model. Most steel doors include limited lifetime warranties on sections and 1-5 year warranties on hardware and springs. We provide warranty details for each door option during consultation.
Will a new garage door increase my home value?
Absolutely. Garage door replacement ranks among the top ROI home improvements, typically returning 90-95% of cost at resale according to Remodeling Magazine. Plus, it dramatically improves curb appeal - garage doors are up to 40% of your home's street-facing facade.
Can you install a garage door opener at the same time?
Yes! We offer complete packages including new door and opener installation. This ensures perfect compatibility and allows us to configure everything together. We install all major opener brands including LiftMaster, Chamberlain, and Genie with smart features available.
