For annual tune-up around Boring, the details that matter are local: heavy rainfall and fog that rust steel hardware fast, moss and rot on shaded, north-facing doors, and standing damp that corrodes the lowest hardware first. Our crews stock corrosion-resistant parts built for exactly those conditions.
Boring sits in Oregon's cool, wet Pacific coast — a cool, wet maritime climate — abundant rainfall, frequent fog, and damp, salt-tinged onshore wind much of the year. That puts real stress on garage door hardware: we routinely see heavy rainfall and fog that rust steel hardware fast, moss and rot on shaded, north-facing doors, and standing damp that corrodes the lowest hardware first, and we fit parts rated to handle it.
From Boring and the surrounding area, the issues Boring customers describe are typically corroded tracks and rollers near the coast, corroded hinges seized by constant damp, rust-seized springs and cables in the wet climate, and moisture-faulted openers and sensors. We quote flat-rate, fix it in one trip, and back the work for 10 years.
Annual tune-ups extend garage door life by roughly 30% and catch the small problems that turn into emergencies. The math is straightforward: a $99 tune-up that detects a worn cable adds five minutes of work, while the same cable snapping at 6 a.m. on a Tuesday is a $400 emergency call. Our 23-point inspection covers every wear surface on the door — springs, cables, drums, rollers, hinges, bearing plates, tracks, brackets, opener gear and chain/belt — plus the safety systems (photo-eyes, auto-reverse).
Every tune-up includes a written report listing every component checked, its current condition (Good / Watch / Action), and an estimate for any flagged items. We don't pressure-sell tune-ups; if your door is in great shape and only needs lubrication, the report will say so and you'll be on your way. Most homes go 3–5 years on a tune-up cadence with no other service required.
Tune-ups are also the right call before listing a home. We provide a signed inspection report that homeowners share with prospective buyers — eliminating one common inspection-period negotiation. The same report works for insurance audits and rental-property compliance.
Annual is the recommended cadence, but homes in coastal corrosion zones or heavy-use households (multiple drivers, 4+ cycles/day) benefit from semi-annual service.
Door is noticeably louder than last year
Increasing noise is the earliest sign of bearing, roller, or hinge wear. Lubrication and adjustment at this stage prevents the underlying components from failing.
Visible rust or pitting on springs/cables
Surface rust on springs and cables means corrosion has already started weakening the wire. A tune-up catches this before the part snaps.
Opener strains on cold mornings
Cold weather thickens lubricants and stresses opener motors. A tune-up with fresh lubrication restores winter performance.
Pre-listing inspection prep
A signed tune-up report from a licensed contractor preempts buyer-inspection negotiations on the garage door — a small but consistent win on home sales.
Common causes & what we fix
Lubrication degradation
Factory grease on springs, hinges, and bearings dries out over 12–18 months. Re-lubrication restores quiet operation and slows wear.
Track fastener loosening
Vibration over thousands of cycles backs off track bracket screws. Annual re-torque keeps the track stable and the door tracking straight.
Photo-eye drift
Sensor brackets shift slightly with temperature cycling. Misaligned eyes cause refuse-to-close behavior. Annual realignment keeps the safety system in spec.
Cable fraying
Cables wear slowly from drum contact. Annual inspection catches fraying years before snap, allowing scheduled replacement instead of emergency dispatch.
Roller bearing wear
Steel rollers wear out their bearings on a slow curve. Annual inspection flags the bad ones for proactive replacement during a planned visit.

Frequently asked about annual tune-up
Top questions homeowners searching for Annual Tune-Up near me ask us:
How does the climate in Boring, OR affect my garage door?
Local weather drives most of the repairs we run in Boring: with cool and heavy rainfall and fog that rust steel hardware fast, moss and rot on shaded, north-facing doors, and standing damp that corrodes the lowest hardware first, the common failure modes are corroded tracks and rollers near the coast, corroded hinges seized by constant damp, rust-seized springs and cables in the wet climate, and moisture-faulted openers and sensors. Our Boring trucks stock the parts those conditions wear out first, so most jobs are a single visit.
What's the most common garage door problem in Boring?
In Boring it is usually corroded tracks and rollers near the coast — and because the area has mostly suburban single-family homes with attached garages, alongside pockets of older in-town housing, we also see a lot of corroded hinges seized by constant damp. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.
How long does a tune-up take?
Most tune-ups run 60–90 minutes. Heavily neglected doors (10+ years without service) may take 2 hours to fully lubricate and adjust.
Can you do tune-ups on commercial doors?
Yes — high-cycle commercial doors benefit even more from scheduled maintenance, often quarterly or semi-annually. Ask about service contracts.
Are tune-ups worth it on a brand-new door?
The first year usually doesn't require service, but a tune-up at the 18-month mark catches builder-install shortcuts (under-torqued brackets, missing lubrication) before they become problems.
Do I have to be home?
We prefer you're home so we can walk through the report and any findings together, but it's not strictly required. Many homeowners book tune-ups while they're at work and we leave the written report on the workbench.
