Garage door motor replacement and upgrades in Swindon: common questions

Is it the motor or the door?

A motor that strains, stops or reverses is often struggling with an unbalanced door, a broken spring or a sticking roller. We check the door first, because a new motor on a faulty door will fail again.

Can I get app control?

Many current operators offer app control through a module or built-in Wi-Fi. We can fit and set it up as part of the job.

What does a new garage door motor cost in Swindon?

Guide price: £450–£850 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.

Safety points for Swindon customers

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.

Operators normally run from a switched fused spur; adding one to an existing circuit is not notifiable in England, but a new circuit falls under Part P.
