Cable, roller and track repairs in Dunoon: what to expect
What does a snapped or slack cable look like?

Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.

What does a cable or roller repair cost in Dunoon?
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.
This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.
What should you do until the engineer arrives in Dunoon?
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.

Questions from Dunoon customers
How much does it cost to replace garage door cables?
As a guide, a cable replacement visit is around £120–£280, depending on the door and what else needs attention.

No. Clean them and keep them dry. Light lubricant goes on hinges, roller bearings and springs, not the inside of the tracks.
