Loud bang. Door will not lift. Do not run the opener. Same-day torsion and extension spring replacement.
Frayed lift cable, cable off the drum, door sitting low on one side. Stop using the door.
Opener hums, remotes dead, sensors blinking, wall button dead. We separate spring failure from opener failure.
Door stuck shut with the car inside, or stuck open overnight. Request emergency service by phone.
A garage door can weigh 150-300+ pounds. The springs carry that weight. A broken spring, frayed cable, or off-track panel can drop the door or wreck the opener if you keep using it. Leave the door down. Keep kids and pets away from the opening. Call 435-773-8856.
St. George heat, UV, and red dust shorten spring life and dry out rollers and cables. That is normal wear here in Washington County, not a reason to DIY the torsion bar.

This is a local, phone first garage door repair service for St. George, Washington, Ivins, Santa Clara, and Hurricane. The work is springs, cables, openers, off-track doors, and after-hours repair when you request it. New doors come up only when the old door is not worth another part.
When you call or text 435-773-8856, you describe the door and we tell you what it sounds like, whether it is urgent, and how the job is quoted. Estimates are free. The repair is quoted before any work starts. Springs of the same age get replaced as a pair, and we tell you when a new door is the honest next step. If we cannot get there today, we say so.
A loud bang from the garage, a door that will not lift or feels extremely heavy, a door that is crooked, or an opener that hums and does not move the door. Look at the torsion tube above the door: a gap in the spring coil means it snapped. On extension-spring doors, a spring hanging off the track or a loose safety cable is the giveaway.
No. The spring carries the weight of the door. If you use the opener on a broken spring you can burn out the motor, snap cables, or drop the door. Disconnect the opener and leave the door down until a technician replaces the spring.
Call 435-773-8856 for a free estimate. Cost depends on spring type, door weight, and whether cables failed with it. We'll quote after we see the door.
If the opener motor runs but the door barely moves, or you heard a bang, it is usually the spring, not the opener. If the opener is silent, the remotes are dead, or the wall button does nothing while the door still lifts by hand, it is more likely the opener, power, or sensors. When in doubt, stop using the door and call.
Same-day spring, cable, and opener repair is the goal when you call early and parts match the door. Evenings, weekends, and stacked storm/heat days can push a job. Call 435-773-8856 with the symptom and city so we can tell you what is realistic today. More in our same-day or wait guide.
Tell us what the door is doing. Every door is quoted on its own, before any work starts. How we quote, call for a free estimate
