Repair your garage door if the problem is a spring, cable, roller, opener or one damaged section and the rest of the door is sound. Replace it if several panels are dented, cracked or rusted, the door is uninsulated under a living space, or repairs keep adding up. A good garage door company should tell you honestly which makes more sense.
Usually worth repairing
- Broken torsion or extension springs
- Frayed or snapped cables
- Worn or noisy rollers and hinges
- A door that's off track
- Opener or sensor problems
- One damaged section, if a matching section is available
Signs it's time to replace
- Several dented, cracked or rusted panels
- Rotting wood or delaminating panels
- No insulation on a door under a bedroom or on a heated garage
- Sections for your model are no longer made
- You're updating the house or getting ready to sell

Can a garage door be painted?
Many steel garage doors can be painted with the right exterior paint after cleaning and priming. Check the manufacturer's instructions first, because some finishes and warranties have specific requirements.
