"Initial rep was great and informative. Felt comfortable with initial sale. Hardly had any contact from customer service except for the payments. There were several delays that we were not informed about unless we called to ask. Took 7 months before they showed up to begin project. Only 1 person was sent to build steps. Took a week. Hard worked, hardly took a break. Had to call again to see when they would come to pour patio. Never knew when they were coming, they just showed up. Hardly spoke with the homeowners. Inspection paperwork was just left on porch. Additional paperwork that is "required by the County" had to be completed by homeowner and taken to Court house to be notarized and filed and also provide a copy back to Long Fence. Time sensitive materials which added to homeowners to-do list. Gave this contract to LF on the surface of their history and appearance of a 'good local company' but should have stayed with original contactors in VA. Puddle of water forms when it rains"

NorthCraft Builders is a family owned and operated business providing Decks, Porches, Sunrooms, and Interior Remodeling services to Northern Virginia and D.C. Our company goal is to provide the highest quality service to our clients. We believe that quality control begins with listening to our clients desires and using our experience and knowledge to help make your vision become a reality.

"We have trusted NorthCraft with at least 5 major projects, including a screened-in porch (now our favorite part of our home), a full bathroom re-model, and an entire basement renovation following a flood in July 2019. Speaking from extensive experience with this company, I can attest to the *outstanding professionalism* demonstrated by every single employee. They have incredibly high standards for their work. They maintain an immaculate work space and are respectful and polite. The owner, Jeff Kelly, is attentive and responsive; when I called him, stressed and exhausted after the flood had damaged our home, he arranged to have his team begin the renovation within a week. Similarly, he expedited installation of a gorgeous new front door just in time for a major family event. NorthCraft executes consistently excellent work at reasonable prices. Each project has lasted well and added value and enjoyment to our home. NorthCraft is a MUST-CALL for an estimate for any home renovation."

FAQs for garage door spring repair projects in Richmond, VA

Garage door springs last for an estimated number of cycles over a defined period. Extension springs last 8,000 to 15,000 cycles, or seven to 12 years, while torsion springs last 10,000 to 20,000 cycles, or eight to 15 years. Regular maintenance, balanced usage, and professional tuneups can extend their service life.

A skilled technician can replace two garage door springs on a standard door within 30 minutes to one hour. However, the repair time increases for conversion between spring types or when servicing a multi-door system. Every spring is installed with precision to preserve balance and safety, and a professional will test the door after a repair or replacement.

If one garage door spring breaks, you should replace both springs because balanced tension is essential for safe operation of the door. Replacing both springs ensures the door remains level and prevents additional stress on the remaining spring. Most doors are designed with paired springs, and using mismatched components compromises safety. A professional technician will advise replacing both springs to keep the door working properly and safely.

The three most common reasons that garage doors break include wear and tear, rust, and improper maintenance. Rusted spring parts can lead to the coils degrading faster than they should. In addition, not following a maintenance schedule or getting regular tuneups can lead to quicker wear and tear.

The best way to make your garage door springs last longer is by having them maintained by a garage door specialist. This will help catch issues early, and the specialist will also spray the springs with silicone-based lubricant to keep rust at bay. During the maintenance service, the tech will make sure the door is properly balanced to ensure the springs have the right amount of tension.

It is unsafe to manually open your garage door when a spring is broken. A damaged spring causes an unbalanced door that can move suddenly and dangerously. Do not attempt to operate the door yourself. A broken spring compromises the system’s balance and can lead to severe injury or further damage. Professional repair technicians are equipped to safely handle the door, replace the faulty spring, and secure the system to avoid hazards.
