What itactually costs
Published ranges for Broward County, not a discount badge. You get the number on the phone before a truck leaves the shop.
Repair price ranges
Parts and labour included. Where you land inside a range depends on door weight, whether a second component went at the same time, and the hour you call.
| Repair | Typical range | What moves the price |
|---|---|---|
| Broken spring, single | $215 – $470 | Door weight and spring cycle rating |
| Broken springs, pair | $370 – $690 | Standard practice once one has gone |
| Cable replacement | $175 – $380 | Whether the door also needs re-tracking |
| Off-track door | $175 – $380 | Whether track sections are bent beyond dressing |
| Roller set | $105 – $230 | Steel versus sealed nylon |
| Safety sensor repair | $115 – $200 | Realignment versus a new sensor pair |
| Opener repair | $155 – $410 | Gear kit, logic board or full motor |
| Remote or keypad | $90 – $175 | Reprogramming versus new hardware |
| Full tune-up | $105 – $230 | Single or double door |
| Emergency dispatch | $165 – $490 | Out-of-hours premium quoted before we roll |
The trick this trade is known for
The pattern is always the same: an advertised service call at twenty-nine or forty-nine dollars, a technician who finds your springs are "the wrong size for this door", and an invoice several times what a spring replacement should cost.
It works because you are under pressure. The car is trapped, the day is ruined, and comparing three quotes at seven in the morning is not realistic.
The defence is knowing the number before you call. That is what this page is for, and it is why the ranges above are wide enough to be honest rather than narrow enough to be bait.
Questions about pricing
Why publish prices when almost nobody else does?
Because the most common complaint about this trade is the twenty-nine dollar visit that becomes an eight hundred dollar invoice. Publishing ranges costs us a few price-shoppers and saves everyone the driveway argument.
Is there a service call fee?
There is a diagnostic fee for the visit and it is credited against the repair if you go ahead. We quote it on the phone before dispatching, never afterwards.
What pushes a repair to the top of its range?
Door width and weight, whether a second component failed at the same time, higher-cycle parts, and out-of-hours dispatch. We tell you which of those apply before we come out.
