Your right make that 1/2 ton which is what is considered what is needed for a two car garage.

I think you mean 1/2 HORSEPOWER.

Scott is the one to call.

I hate to say this but garage door service is one of those things were some companies rip people off all the time. They know you are stuck and will pretty much do anything to get your garage door fixed ASAP.

I often hear someone tell me their spring broke and they called XYZ company who came the same day and not only changed the springs but the door rails and cables and several other things at a huge cost. They also convinced them to pay extra for their "special heavy duty" springs. In my experience, I've never seen the need for the rails to be replaced unless they were damaged. This is why you need a reputable company and you have to be calm and careful.

For springs, use Ryan McCull. If you have other issues he can't address he will refer you to Scott. Between the two, you will get only what you need done at a fair price.
