The typical home in Watertown was built in 1947, and about 9 in 10 were built before 1990. If the opener in one of those garages has never been replaced, check for the two small safety sensors near the floor. Openers made since 1993 must reverse when something is in the door's path (federal rule 16 CFR 1211), and photo-eye sensors are how nearly all of them do it. An opener with none is usually older than the rule and worth replacing.
Standard garage door springs are commonly rated for about 10,000 open-and-close cycles. At four cycles a day that is about seven years, so a door installed before 2019 that still has its original springs has usually passed that rating.
About half of Watertown's homes are rented, so we also take calls from landlords and property managers, and the written price goes to whoever is paying.

"I highly recommend Eric, we had him fix our garage door few months ago, recently we were having some issues with it. I called Eric on the weekend and he immediately answered the phone, and came within an hour to our place to fix it. I was extremely impressed about how responsive and thorough professional Eric is."
"Eric was able to help me out on a super cold Monday holiday recently. He was able to diagnose my issue and get my garage door working again. Price was fair and he was very good at providing some insight into things to keep an eye on moving forward. I'll definitely keep him on speed dial for whatever I run into next."
"Our technician Eric came on time gave a more fair price then we were previously quoted from another company and did the job quickly and thoroughly and now our door is working better then ever (even got rid of that annoying clicking noise we used to have)."
Watertown is about 30 minutes (16 miles) from our Maynard base. That is the road time between town centers with no traffic, not a promise about the day's traffic. We serve Watertown on scheduled visits and emergency calls.
The same as anywhere else we serve. Most repairs run $150-$850. Spring replacement is $325-$750, cable repair $200-$400, opener repair $195-$450. The town does not change the price. On a scheduled visit the written estimate is free, and you pay only for work you agree to. Emergency calls are $300 minimum, which covers the visit and the repair up to $300; a bigger repair costs the same as it would scheduled.
A single door install is typically 3-4 hours start to finish; double doors run 4-6 hours. That includes removing your old door, installing the new one (with insulation if specified), setting up or transferring your opener, balancing the springs, and hauling the old door away at no extra charge.
Yes. We handle commercial overhead doors, rolling steel grilles, sectional commercial doors, and loading bay openers. Typical jobs run $900 to $15,000 depending on door type and size, with an exact written quote before any work begins. Calls are answered 7am to 7pm, Monday to Sunday. Same-day service when the schedule allows. Outside these hours, leave a message for a call back first thing.
Cash, check, all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, Amex, Discover), and Sunbit financing. Payment is due on completion. No deposit required for repairs; new-door installations typically require a 50% deposit when materials are ordered.
Whether your door is stuck or you need an estimate for a new install, call, text, or request service online. Call for urgent repairs and to confirm the next available appointment.
