Garage Door Maintenance in Toronto & the GTA
Prevent Costly Repairs with Routine Garage Door Care
Your garage door is one of the largest moving parts in your home. Like any system that gets daily use, it needs regular care to stay safe, quiet, and reliable. At TBC Garage Doors, we provide expert garage door maintenance in Toronto and the GTA to help you avoid breakdowns and extend the life of your system.
Whether your door is brand new or starting to show signs of wear, seasonal maintenance is a smart, affordable way to protect your investment.


Why Garage Door Maintenance Matters
Garage doors are made up of many moving parts. Over time, bolts loosen, rollers wear down, and springs can stretch or weaken. These small issues can lead to bigger problems, especially during cold Toronto winters when materials expand and contract more dramatically.
Regular maintenance helps:
- Catch worn parts before they fail
- Reduce noise and vibration
- Keep your door properly balanced
- Prevent strain on your opener
- Improve insulation and energy efficiency
- Maintain your safety sensors and auto-reverse features
What’s Included in a TBC Maintenance Visit
During a typical maintenance appointment, our technicians will:
Inspect springs, cables, rollers, and hinges for signs of wear
Lubricate all moving parts to reduce friction and noise
Tighten hardware and adjust alignment
Test door balance and spring tension
Check opener function, including sensors and remotes
Inspect seals and weatherstripping
We also give you a full update on your system's condition so you know what to expect in the months ahead.
When Should You Schedule Maintenance
Most residential garage doors benefit from maintenance once a year. If your garage door is used multiple times a day or acts as your main entrance, we may recommend checking it every six months.
Many homeowners prefer a fall tune-up to get ready for winter, while others schedule spring service to check for any cold-weather wear.

Garage Door Maintenance FAQs
Is maintenance really necessary if my door is working fine?
Yes. Many issues are hidden until something breaks. Routine maintenance helps prevent sudden failures and keeps everything running smoothly.
How long does a typical maintenance visit take?
Most maintenance appointments take under an hour. If we find something that needs repair, we’ll explain the issue and provide a quote before doing any extra work.
Can you check the opener during the same visit?
Yes. Our maintenance service includes a full opener inspection. We test the motor, remotes, safety sensors, and auto-reverse settings.
Will this help with a loud or rattling door?
Yes. Noises are often caused by dry rollers or loose hardware. Our tune-up includes full lubrication and alignment to reduce or eliminate these sounds.
What if my door already has an issue? Should I book a repair instead?
If you’ve noticed a specific problem, it’s better to start with a repair visit. However, if the issue is minor, we may be able to address it during your maintenance check.
