When one lift cable slips off its drum or snaps, that side of the door drops and the door hangs at an angle. A crooked Kingwood garage door is unsafe to operate and should be inspected promptly.
Look at the cables running down each side of the door. Fraying, kinks, or a fully snapped cable means it's failing. Gulf Coast humidity around Kingwood rusts cables from the inside out.
A cable that's come off its drum binds the door so it won't lift, jams partway, or moves unevenly. Forcing it risks pulling the door off-track.
Loose cable coiling up at the bottom means it has lost tension or jumped the drum. The door's weight is no longer properly supported.
Same-day service available. Free estimates, upfront pricing, licensed & insured.
(281) 906-4783Our Kingwood technician secures the door, then inspects both cables, the drums, and the springs — cable failures and spring problems often go together.
We replace cables in matched pairs with the correct gauge for your door's weight, and reseat them properly on the drums.
Drums and bearings are checked and the spring tension is verified so the new cables aren't immediately stressed.
We balance and test the door by hand, confirm even travel, and lubricate the moving parts.
Cable replacement in Kingwood typically runs $100-$150 for a matched pair, which is the standard repair.

Most Kingwood, TX cable jobs run $135-$185 fully installed (both sides done together for safety). Service call $49 — credited to the repair. Lemus publishes the price before any work starts.
Always both. When one cable fails, the second is usually within months — replacing only one creates an unbalanced door that strains the opener and may snap the second cable. Both sides matched for length and age.
Most cables fail from age (frayed strands), spring imbalance pulling extra load to one side, or a sudden over-extension when the door hit something. Lemus inspects all three causes during repair so the new cable doesn't fail for the same reason.
60-75 minutes for most Kingwood jobs including a balance check before we leave. We carry the standard Kingwood, TX-spec cable sizes on the truck so no parts run is needed.
