Garage door repair in Baltimore

baltimore skyline

If you’re lucky enough to have a garage, there are a few common issues you might experience with your door. The most frequent services for garage door repair in Baltimore include:

  • Spring repair - springs balance the weight of the door, allowing it to open
  • Panel replacement - the actual door itself
  • Cable replacement - cables pull the garage door open

The Maryland Department of Labor, Licensing & Regulation considers garage door repairs to be “home improvements,” which means contractors need a license to perform them. You can search DLLR’s database to make sure a company has an active license before you hire them. To get a license, a Baltimore garage door repair company must carry $50,000 of liability insurance and pass a licensing exam.

Prices and permits for garage door repair in Baltimore

The average cost to repair a garage door in Baltimore is about $275, with most repairs running between $170 and $400. The exact cost of your project will depend on the time it takes to repair and the price of parts needed. Some companies charge extra if they have to travel outside of their service area or for emergency service outside of normal business hours.

Baltimore does not require a permit to repair or replace the door in an existing garage. However, if you’re expanding the size of your garage or building a new garage, you will need to apply for a permit.

For those living in historic districts, special rules apply for modifications to your property. Visit the Baltimore Historical and Architectural Preservation website to see if your house is in such a district and find out what guidelines you’ll need to follow.
