Swain Garage Doors | Denver Metro
Straight Numbers,
Posted Up Front.
Spring replacement, cables, openers and rollers are priced right here, with no franchise markup built in. You know the range before you call, and we confirm the total in person before any work starts.
Pricing
Clear Prices. No Zip Code Markup.
Some companies quote based on the neighborhood, the vehicle in the driveway, or how the house looks from the street. That's not how this works. The prices posted here are what we charge: every customer, every job, every time.
More complex work, combination failures, structural issues, custom installs, gets a full on-site assessment with a written cost breakdown before anything starts. You approve the number, then work begins.
The estimate is always free. No trip fee, no obligation.

How It Works
What Happens at the Estimate
There's no pressure, no upsell script, and no invoice surprises. Here's the actual process.
We Diagnose the Actual Problem
Diagnosis comes before any recommendation. We won't push a full hardware rebuild if your door needs a sensor alignment. The diagnosis drives the recommendation, not a sales target.
You Get a Clear Number
After the assessment, you get a straight price. Not a range that might go up. A number. If there's any complexity that affects cost, it gets explained before you decide.
You Approve. Then We Start.
No work starts until you've seen the price and said yes. If the job changes mid-repair, something discovered once the door is apart, you get a new number and a new approval before it continues.
Common Scenarios
What Your Situation Likely Costs
The most common repair scenarios across the Denver metro, with realistic cost ranges that match what you'll actually be quoted.
Spring Snapped Overnight
Your door worked fine yesterday and won't move today. A loud bang the night before is a dead giveaway. Both springs are replaced together: when one goes, the other is close behind.
Opener Stopped Working
Door won't respond to the remote or wall button. Could be the motor, the logic board, or something as simple as a sensor misalignment. We diagnose first. Repair starts at $159, replacement from $799.
Door Off Track or Stuck Open
A door stuck open is a security issue. Off-track doors can become a safety hazard if forced. Most off-track situations are a same-day fix: rollers reset, track inspected and adjusted, hardware checked.
Annual Tune-Up Before Something Breaks
If your door is 8+ years old and hasn't been serviced, the 21-Point Inspection is the most cost-effective thing you can do. Springs, cables, rollers, tracks, opener force settings, and safety sensors: all checked, lubed, and adjusted.
FAQ
Pricing Questions
Answers to what people actually ask before they call.
Do you charge for the estimate?
No. The estimate is always free. We come out, look at the door, and give you a price. If you decide not to move forward, there's no trip fee and no invoice. That's just how Swain Garage Doors works.
How accurate are the "from" prices on the table?
They're realistic starting points for standard residential configurations. We always recommend replacing springs in pairs: when one breaks, the other is typically near the end of its life too. Pair replacement with high-cycle springs starts at $499. Single spring replacement is available but not something we push; you'd likely be back within months for the second one. If your door is taller, uses heavier springs, or needs additional hardware, the price reflects that. Either way you get the exact number before we start.
Can the price change after work starts?
It can only change with your approval. If we open up a door and discover something additional that needs to be addressed, we stop, tell you what we found, and give you a new number. Work on that item doesn't start until you say yes.
Another company quoted me significantly more. Why the difference?
A few reasons. Some companies quote worst-case scenarios and then "find" that not everything needs to be replaced. Some add markup layers that don't exist in an owner-operator model. And some companies lead with upsells rather than diagnosis. If you've gotten a quote that seems high, we'll give you a second opinion at no charge.
Do you offer any guarantees on the work?
Yes. Parts come with manufacturer warranties and labor is warranted as well. If something we installed or repaired fails due to workmanship, we come back and handle it. Call the same number and we handle it.
Why do you post your prices when most garage door companies won't?
Because most of them can't. Their pricing depends on what they think they can get out of you that day. Ours doesn't. We post ranges because we're confident in them, and because you deserve to know the ballpark before anyone shows up at your house. You'll still get a full breakdown before any work starts, but you won't walk in blind.
