In today’s digital arena, “do it yourself” or (DYI) projects have gained momentum in the popularity of online tutorials.
While several problems you might encounter with your garage door may have an easy fix you can tend to yourself, other problems should never be attempted without the expertise of a professional.
Some simple, easy repairs may be accomplished by a homeowner who is handy. These repairs might include tightening decorative door hardware, replacing weather stripping, or lubricating the door tracks.
Other, serious repairs call for an expert to prevent a serious injury to you, the homeowner. With a garage door being the largest (and probably the heaviest) moving part of your home, trying to fix serious problems can result not only in injury but in some cases death!
Repair-related issues like securing a detached door, replacing cables, rollers, or drums, swapping out electric openers, or the replacement of broken or loose springs require a professional service tech to give your door expert attention and to get your busy life “back on track”.
