Cable, roller and track repairs in Salford: what to expect
Why do rollers wear?
Nylon and steel rollers wear with use and dirt. Worn rollers make the door noisy and rough, and broken rollers can let a section leave the track.
Can these parts be replaced without a new door?
Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.

What does a cable or roller repair cost in Salford?
Guide price: £120–£280 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.
You will know the visit price before we book. Any parts or extra work are quoted and agreed with you first.
What should you do until the engineer arrives in Salford?
Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.
