Garage door spring just broke!

[sniper7]

Anybody got a recommendation or want to fix it (paid of course)? I'm normally all for doing things myself but I have bad luck with springy things so I don't touch big ones that can rip my arm off.
would love to get it tomorrow if possible as we are having a bday party tomorrow night. I'm home tomorrow am til 9 gone for a few hours and home again around 2

its a newer home 2009 build 2 car garage door.

I've replaced mine twice. It's really not that big of a deal if you watch a few videos and pay attention to what you're doing. The old spring shouldn't be under tension anymore since it broke.

Happened to me in early August. Efficiency Garage Door took care of me very well. A busted spring isn't anything to be taken lightly, if you're not comfortable after watching the videos I'd call a pro. It cost me $170, guy had it done in about 30 minutes and with a spring rated for an additional 6k rotations than the one that broke.

Ankmar took care of me in less than 24 hours. Think is was $200. It's one of those projects that was worth it to me to leave to the experts.

We use Ankmar for residential and Vortex for commercial. Both usually complete within 24 hrs.

I like the Original Over Head Door company . The local operation here in C Springs does a lot to support youth groups and they have excellent service. I personally wouldn't mess with the spring -- the old one will be heavy as hell to bring down and coiling up the new one stores a lot of energy -- not a good situation if you don't know what you're doing.

Yeah I'm not messing with it myself. I think Ankmar installed this door I'll call them and see what they say, found a couple other places online as well locally so hopefully somebody can get it done tomorrow

This.

My last adventure was a couple years ago.

I'm considering using them to replace the garage door/motor sometime soon as well.
