Garage Door Garage Door Opener Repair Wellington, FL
We run garage door opener repair across Lakeview South, Lakeview North, Lakefield West and Laurel Estates and the wider Palm Beach County area — quick turnaround when you call early, flat-rate always, and guaranteed for ten years.
Ask any Wellington tech and they'll tell you the climate decides what fails. Consistently warm, muggy weather with abundant rainfall, high humidity, and corrosive salt air near the coast brings constant humidity that swells wood doors and rusts steel hardware, year-round salt-marine air that corrodes springs, cables, and fasteners, and storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, year after year.
Run down the service log for Wellington and the same repairs repeat: moisture-tripped openers and sensors, corroded bottom brackets on older coastal doors, salt-pitted spring coils that fail early near the coast, and mildew and rust on shaded, low hardware. We carry every part needed to close them out in one trip.
Garage door opener repair covers a wide range of failure modes — from a $25 capacitor swap that takes 20 minutes to a full logic board replacement that takes an hour. Our techs diagnose to the component level rather than recommending opener replacement as the default. A 6-year-old LiftMaster with a worn gear assembly is almost always worth repairing; the same model at 14 years old with three different failure points is usually worth replacing.
Trucks stock the most common parts for the major brands: LiftMaster logic boards (Security+ 2.0), Genie circuit boards, capacitors in standard microfarad ratings, nylon and bronze gear assemblies, travel limit switches, and replacement wall consoles. The 96% first-call fix rate applies to opener repair too — most issues are diagnosed and resolved in the same visit.
Every opener repair includes a full operational check after the fix: force settings re-calibrated to the door weight, travel limits set so the door fully opens and fully closes without straining, photo-eyes re-aligned and tested for auto-reverse, and remote/keypad pairing verified. If you've been living with a finicky opener for months, the post-repair calibration is often a noticeable improvement on its own.
Classic capacitor failure — the motor wants to start but can't develop the torque. Fix is usually $89–$129 in parts and 30 minutes of labor on a Wellington call.
Opener runs but stops partway
Travel limit drift or a tired gear assembly. Re-programming travel limits is free in the diagnostic across Palm Beach County; gear replacement is $149–$249.
Remote works sometimes, not others
Logic board going intermittent, or a coding battery low in the remote. We diagnose both during the Wellington visit.
Door reverses immediately when closing
Photo-eye misalignment or force setting drift. Photo-eye realignment is part of every Lakeview South, Lakeview North, Lakefield West diagnostic; force re-calibration is included in any repair.
Wall console unresponsive
Could be the console, the wiring, or the logic board. We bring all three replacements on the truck and isolate the actual cause at your Wellington home.
Common causes & what we fix
Power surge
The single most common cause of catastrophic opener failure we see in Wellington. A $25 surge protector at the receptacle would have prevented most of these calls.
Capacitor age
Electrolytic capacitors dry out over 7–10 years. The motor still works fine; the start capacitor just can't kick it over — a routine Palm Beach County fix.
Gear wear
Nylon worm gears in chain-drive and screw-drive openers wear out predictably around 12–15 years. A $149 gear swap extends opener life another 5+ years, and it's one of the most common Wellington repairs.
Logic board failure
Boards fail from surges, heat, and age. LiftMaster boards run $189–$249; Genie similar. Often worth replacing on a 6–10 year old opener; rarely worth it past 14 years. We stock boards on every Lakeview South, Lakeview North, Lakefield West truck.
Travel limit drift
Cables stretch slightly over time, changing the door's travel distance. Re-programming the opener's travel limits is a frequent Wellington maintenance fix.
