Garage Door Broken Spring Repair for Fairview homeowners is shaped by where they live — Tennessee's humid subtropical region, where damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, and summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers drive most failures.
Fairview, TN is shaped by hot, humid summers and short, mild winters, with frequent storms and moisture that lingers in the air most of the year. We've learned which parts last in Tennessee's humid subtropical region, because damp garages that pit galvanized parts over time, intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, and summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers take a steady toll on springs, tracks, and seals.
Nine out of ten Fairview calls trace back to swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors, moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, and corroded springs and cables in the humid air. We pinpoint which one it is before quoting a cent.
A broken garage door spring is one of the most common — and most disruptive — failures on a residential garage door. The failure itself is typically sudden: a loud bang from the garage, often mistaken for a gunshot or a transformer blowing. After the bang, the door becomes nearly impossible to lift by hand and the opener strains and refuses to move it. Cars get trapped inside, household routines disrupt, and the homeowner needs immediate service. Our broken-spring response averages under 90 minutes from call to on-site nationwide.
Every broken-spring visit follows the same protocol. Diagnose the failure (which spring, extent of any collateral damage), present a flat-rate quote (standard spring vs. 30,000-cycle upgrade), replace the spring(s), inspect cables and drums for accelerated wear (cables often need replacement alongside springs after a long service life), recalibrate door balance, and re-program the opener's travel and force limits to match the new spring tension. Most visits complete in 60–90 minutes.
We strongly recommend replacing both springs on dual-spring doors. The unbroken second spring is statistically days or weeks from failing — it has the same cycle history as the broken one. Replacing both costs less than two separate dispatches and properly re-balances the system.
Snapped torsion spring makes a distinct crack that sounds like a gunshot. Inspect for a 2-inch gap between coils on the spring above the door.
Door won't open with the remote
Modern openers refuse to lift the door without spring assistance. Failure to lift is a strong indicator of spring failure.
Door hard or impossible to lift by hand
Disconnect the opener and try lifting. A door with a broken spring is roughly 1.5–2× as heavy to lift, often impossible solo.
Visible coil gap or hanging spring fragment
Walk into the garage and look at the spring shaft above the door. A gap between coils or visibly broken section confirms spring failure.
Opener motor strains, door barely moves
If the opener tries and the door inches up but fails to fully open, the spring has either snapped or lost critical tension.
Common causes & what we fix
Cycle fatigue end-of-life
Builder-grade springs hit their cycle rating around 7–10 years of typical use. Failure is sudden but predictable on a curve.
Single-spring on heavy door
Single-spring installs on doors that should have dual springs see faster fatigue. Common in older builder installs.
Coastal corrosion
Salt-air pitting weakens uncoated springs. Coastal homes can see springs fail at 60% of cycle rating.
Missing maintenance
Dry, un-lubricated springs fatigue faster. Annual lubrication during a tune-up materially extends life.
Cold weather brittleness
Cold mornings can be the trigger for a fatigued spring to snap. The failure was coming anyway; cold tipped it over.

Yes. Williamson County, Tennessee, takes in Fairview and the communities around it, and we work the whole footprint: Fairview plus nearby Kingston Springs, Pegram, White Bluff, and Burns. Same licensed, insured crews and 10-year workmanship guarantee county-wide.
Fairview runs a mixed-age housing stock (median build year 1996), roughly 27% pre-1980, so we see both first-generation doors and aging replacements.
We strongly discourage it. The door is heavy and unbalanced — lifting it manually risks injury. If you must (e.g., to remove a car), get two people, lift slowly, and prop securely. Wait for repair if at all possible.
Worth it for most households. A modest amount more than standard, 3× the lifespan, and we back it for the life of the original homeowner.
Yes if your door has dual springs. The unbroken spring has the same cycle history and is days to weeks from failing. Replacing both costs less than two separate visits and properly re-balances the door.
Quoted flat-rate per spring by size and standard vs. high-cycle. Cable replacement, when needed, is added to the written quote. Dual-spring replacement with cables is quoted as one flat price.
