"The torsion spring on my garage door broke and the cables came unwound from the cable drum. Out of four places that I contacted, Thunder was one of two that didn't require a trip fee for getting an estimate. The other contractor would give an estimate for the labor, but not the parts. And he left in a huff when I said that I was only interested in an estimate that day. Dean from Thunder quoted me $550 to replace the spring, cables and cable drums. When I said that I was not going to have work done that day, he said that he could try to get the price down if I was willing to have him do the work right then. I would have said no, but since I canceled a scheduled estimate later in the day (because of a $73 trip fee), I was curious how he would bring the price down. Dean said that he could replace just the spring and shaft, and even though the cable drums were old, he would re-spool the cables and make them work with the new shaft instead of replacing them. The new price was 350. I was very happy with the price point, the quality of the work, and the communication."

Local family owned business since 2003. 18 employees- no subcontractors used. Award winning. Additional contact names - Stanley Prosser, Kimberly Prosser. SK Services Inc dba Precision Door Service. Award wining.
"We are extremely happy with Precision Garage Doors’ work to repair our double-wide garage door. The door was installed 10 years ago by Precision. It had gotten off its tracks and was stuck open the evening before we were leaving on vacation. My call was answered by a polite human (!) who managed to schedule us early the following morning. The technicians arrived on schedule, explained what was needed clearly, replaced worn parts, and had the door sorted out quickly and professionally. Also fantastic was that the door was under their lifetime warrantee, so the cost for the repair was minimal. We highly recommend Precision Garage Doors Tigard."

Garage door costs range somewhat broadly, depending on the type you choose. However, you’ll also need to factor in labor costs, which vary from state to state and between pros.
A chain driven operator costs between $150 - $250. For a belt driven operator it is usually $160 - $450. A screw-driven operator is between $250-$500.
To keep garage door opener repair costs down, you should check that the whole apparatus is working normally on a regular basis. This means making sure that the tracks of your door are greased and fully operational, and that the door itself is in good condition.
Installing a new garage door opener runs from $250 to $500 at least. If your repair costs are close in cost to that range or if your garage door is 10 to 15 years old, you should probably replace it instead of repair.
However, it’s a better idea to fix your garage door opener if it’s less than eight years old or if repair costs are less than replacing.
Garage door openers usually last between 10 and 15 years. However, several factors contribute to how long your garage door opener can last. If you schedule regular inspections and practice proper care, you can maximize your garage door opener’s lifespan, saving money in the long run. As a general rule, practice the same care for your garage door opener as you would the door itself.
These tell-tale signs indicate your garage door is going bad, including:
Not closing or opening at all
The door reversing when you try to open and/or close it
Inconsistent opening and closing; more noise than usual (grinding, scraping, or banging)
Sticking or stalling when you try to open or close it
If you experience one or more of these signs, it’s time to call a professional garage door repair service.
