FAQ

What El Cajon, CA Customers Ask Us Most

This almost always means one lift cable or spring has failed while the other side is still holding weight.

Both cables typically get replaced together to avoid a near-term repeat call.

We treat cable failures as priority calls given the safety risk involved.

We check the drum groove condition whenever a cable keeps coming off, since replacing just the cable won't fix a bad drum.

Cost varies with door size and whether one or both cables and drums need attention.

A snapped-cable call usually resolves in under two hours on-site.
