Although garage door operators do break or have parts wear out, the most common problem we come across is a "bad installation." At least 50% of all repairs are related to the original installation. It is not uncommon for us to get to a repair and just "redo" the entire installation. Installer error accounts for many of the repairs we are called out to.

We offer the full spectrum of repairs on all the common garage door operators. If your existing operator is under 12 years old, we can usually complete the repair in a fairly cost-effective manner. If it's an older unit, sometimes it's better purchase new one(CityScape has a full 1 year warranty on labor for a new install and also you get the manufacturer's parts warranty as well). Often times, when a repair is needed, it can just be the door is out of adjustment and it's become too difficult for the unit to lift. Remember the garage door and operator are a system....they both have to be installed correctly to function well and problem free!

Whatever the problem may be, give us a call and we can go over it on the phone, or set up a time for us a time to come out and service it!
