Garage Door Spring Replacement & Opener Installation
Existing torsion spring has fractured (right side). Left-side spring shows 60–70% wear — replacement recommended at same visit. Existing 15-year-old chain-drive opener is functional but lacks auto-reverse compliance per current UL 325 safety standards. Client requested opener upgrade during initial call.
Replace both torsion springs (pair, 0.250 wire, 2-inch inside diameter, 26-inch length) Install new belt-drive opener — LiftMaster 87504-267 (Wi-Fi enabled, battery backup, wall-panel included) Program two remotes and MyQ app on client's phone Test and calibrate safety sensors and auto-reverse function Haul and dispose of old opener unit Lubricate rollers, hinges, and tracks
Torsion spring pair (parts + installation): $295 LiftMaster 87504-267 opener (hardware): $285 Opener installation and programming: $140 Old unit haul-away: $35 Safety sensor check and calibration: included Total: $755 50% deposit due at scheduling. Balance due at job completion.
Torsion springs: 1-year parts warranty. Labor: 90-day warranty on all work performed. LiftMaster opener: 3-year manufacturer warranty on motor and electronics; 1-year on accessories. Scheduled for Friday between 8am and 11am — tech will call 30 minutes before arrival. Panel dent noted on second panel from bottom (left side): does not affect operation. Repair quote available on request ($185–$220 depending on damage depth).

Create Your Free AccountQuote springs in pairs, not singles. Replacing one torsion spring when the other is five years old is false economy — the second one breaks in three months and you're back for a free service call. Put both springs on the proposal with a clear explanation. Most homeowners go for it.
List opener model numbers and features in the proposal. Homeowners comparison-shop openers online. If you just write 'new opener installed: $450,' they'll Google the unit and think your labor is the whole number. Break out hardware, installation, and haul-away separately so they see what they're actually paying for.
Separate panel repair from panel replacement in your pricing. A dented panel can sometimes be hammered back and repainted. A creased panel with broken welds cannot. Walk the client through which situation they have before you quote, then put the finding in writing so you're not renegotiating on the day.
Always include a safety sensor test and adjustment in every service call. If springs snap or panels buckle after you leave because the safety reversal wasn't working, you own that liability. Test, document the result, and note it in the proposal even if it's listed as 'included at no charge.'
Clarify the warranty structure by component. Springs typically carry a 1-year parts warranty. Openers often have a 3-year manufacturer warranty you can point to. Labor warranties are your call. List each one explicitly — clients remember verbal promises differently than technicians do.
