At GD – Master Ltd., we provide expert garage door spring replacement in St. Albert. Broken or worn springs can make your door unsafe or hard to use. Our team ensures fast, safe repairs to keep your garage door working smoothly.
Garage door spring replacement is not a DIY job. Springs are under high tension, and installing them the wrong way can cause serious injury. Always trust a trained professional to handle the job safely.
Garage door springs are important because they support the weight of the door, making it easy to open and close. If the spring is broken or worn out, your door may stop working properly, or even become dangerous to use.
Replacing springs depends on the type, size, and weight of your door. In St. Albert, here’s what you can expect to pay:
1 Torsion Spring — $225 + Gst (Supplied & Installed)
2 Torsion Springs — $349 +Gst (Supplied & Installed)
Quotes are applicable for residential torsion springs only, with a maximum garage door height of 8 feet. Any unforeseen repairs and/or parts will be charged extra if required.
Garage door springs store energy to help lift and lower your door. Torsion springs, which sit above the door, twist to create torque. This torque balances the door’s weight. When the spring breaks, your opener can’t lift the door properly—and it can become dangerous. Contact Us for Spring Replacement in St. Albert

Loose or Tangled Cables
Springs work with cables. If your cables are hanging loose or off the drum, the spring may have failed.
Loud “Bang” Sound
Many people hear a loud snap or pop when the spring breaks. This is caused by the sudden release of tension.
