Repair for every major opener brand — LiftMaster, Genie, Chamberlain, Craftsman, Sommer, Marantec. Logic board, gear, capacitor, and travel-limit issues diagnosed and fixed in one visit.
In West, every garage door opener repair starts with the local picture — a warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware. We choose hardware that survives Texas's humid subtropical region, not whatever's cheapest on the shelf.
Climate is half the story for a garage door in McLennan County. Given a warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware, West doors wrestle with intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, and salt-tinged coastal air that accelerates rust near the shore.
In our experience around West, the repairs that come up most are degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, swollen, sticking wood doors in summer humidity, pitted galvanized hardware on older doors, and moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms. We'll show you exactly what failed and why before we touch a tool.
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 West call.
Opener runs but stops partway
Travel limit drift or a tired gear assembly. Re-programming travel limits is free in the diagnostic across McLennan 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 West visit.
Door reverses immediately when closing
Photo-eye misalignment or force setting drift. Photo-eye realignment is part of every 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 West home.
Common causes & what we fix
Power surge
The single most common cause of catastrophic opener failure we see in West. 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 McLennan 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 West 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 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 West maintenance fix.
