What Affects the Price?

Several factors can influence the final cost of your garage door spring repair:

  • Number of Springs: Some doors operate with one spring; others require two for balance.

  • Door Weight & Size: Heavier, insulated, or oversized doors need stronger (or double) springs.

  • Upgrades: High-cycle springs cost more but can last up to 3x longer.

Warning Signs Your Springs Need Replacement

  • Loud snap or bang from your garage

  • Garage Door feels extremely heavy or won’t open

  • Gaps in the spring coil

  • Door jerks or slams shut

If you notice any of these signs, stop using your opener and call a technician immediately — broken springs can be dangerous to handle without proper tools.

Why Springs Break More Often in Saskatoon

Cold winters in Saskatoon are a major culprit. Metal contracts in freezing temperatures, making springs brittle and more likely to snap — especially if they’re nearing the end of their life cycle (typically 10,000 cycles or 7–10 years).
