Question: How much does it cost to have the extension springs on my garage door replaced?
Answer: $225. This is an estimate to replace both extension springs on a 7 foot tall, single wide residential garage door that weighs between 70 and 130 pounds.

Garage doors weighing more than 130 pounds, in my opinion, should be on torsion, not extension springs. I do extension to torsion conversions for those doors. One piece doors.
