We know Dunwoody’s garages because we work on them every week. The 1970s-1990s brick colonials along Chamblee-Dunwoody Road, the split-levels off Womack Road, the attached two-car garages in Kingsley and Vermack, all of it. Marcus Deller, our owner, built this business on a simple rule: photograph the failed part before quoting the replacement. You see what we see. Then you decide.

Why Servo Garage Doors Marietta Is Dunwoody’s Preferred Garage Door Repair Company

We’re independently owned and operated under The Haven Standard, not a franchise. That matters because the standard holds us to something a corporate playbook doesn’t: documented proof on every job. Since 2015, we’ve made right more than 18,000 garage doors across metro Atlanta, every single one with a written price before work started and a photo record when the technician left.

Dunwoody homeowners tend to research before they call. They read the three-star reviews, they want the price range on the page, and they walk away from anyone who leads with urgency. So we don’t do urgency theatre. We name the price, we show the failed component, and we let the paperwork make the case. When a Dunwoody customer calls us from Perimeter Center or the Dunwoody Village area, a live person answers, not a recording. That’s 24/7, including holidays.

Our Garage Door Repair team arrives in uniform, background-checked, with a named technician and an on-the-way text before we pull up. You’ll know who’s coming and when. Then we walk the job with you, measure, photograph, and quote. No callback window. No “we’ll see when we get there.”

Our Garage Door Repair Services in Dunwoody

Spring Repair

Spring repair in Dunwoody runs $180-$340 and accounts for the majority of our calls. Torsion springs on 1970s-1990s doors were typically rated for 10,000 cycles. That’s roughly fifteen years of normal use. When they snap, they fail all at once. If your Dunwoody colonial has its original springs, they’re running on borrowed time even if the door still opens. We carry high-cycle replacement springs rated for 25,000 cycles or more, which makes sense if you plan to stay in the house.

Panel Replacement

Panel replacement in Dunwoody costs $250-$500 per panel. What complicates it here, and almost nowhere else in metro Atlanta, is your HOA. Georgetown, Kingsley, and much of the Vermack corridor mandate carriage-house styles with approved color palettes. Before we order a single panel, we check the architectural guidelines. Marcus’s founding rule, now codified as Clause 4 of The Haven Standard, requires that we photograph the failed component before quoting a replacement. In Dunwoody, we add an extra step: we verify the HOA-approved color and style so you don’t get a second trip or a violation letter in the mail.

Cable Repair

Cable repair in Dunwoody runs $130-$250. Cables fail for predictable reasons here: corrosion from our summer humidity, stretching from years of tension, or fraying after a spring breaks and the door drops unevenly. A frayed cable is a lead-up to a dangerous failure. If you can see individual wire strands breaking at the drum, stop using the door and call us. We replace cables in pairs, because the second cable has endured the same stress and is usually within weeks of failing itself.

Track Realignment

Track realignment in Dunwoody costs $120-$240. Older homes here often have tracks that have pulled slightly off vertical over decades of use, especially where the door is attached to a garage with no floor drain. Late-winter ice events cause the bottom seal to freeze to the concrete apron, and the opener strains against that bond. The result: a bent or bowed track. We straighten, reinforce, and when needed, re-anchor the track to the framing. No door should rattle or bind when the rollers pass through the curve.

Roller Replacement

Roller replacement runs $110-$220 in Dunwoody. The nylon rollers in 1980s-era sectional doors wear down until the wheel loses its circumference and the door starts grinding against the track. We recommend replacing all rollers at once, not one at a time, because the remaining originals will fail in sequence and you’ll pay for a separate dispatch each time.

Sensor Calibration

Sensor calibration runs $120-$320 as part of an opener repair, or less if it’s a straightforward alignment. If your door reverses when it shouldn’t, or won’t close at all, the photo-eye sensors near the floor are usually the culprit. In Dunwoody’s older attached garages, humidity and decades of vibration knock these units subtly out of alignment, and the symptom looks identical to a logic board failure. We diagnose before we quote.

Trusted Brands We Service in Dunwoody

We stock parts and service doors from Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, and Craftsman, along with the rest of the major brands. That’s deliberate. Dunwoody’s housing stock skews older, and those original Clopay sectionals and Wayne Dalton Pans from the 1980s don’t accept modern generic hardware without modification. We keep legacy brackets, hinges, and spring cones on the truck, which means fewer Dunwoody customers wait days for a part to ship. If your door is a brand we don’t see often, we can still get the parts. But the old stuff, the stuff your 1992 colonial still has, we probably have on hand.

Common Garage Door Repair Problems We See in Dunwoody Homes

• Snapped torsion springs on original 1970s-1990s doors. Most of these springs were rated for 10,000 cycles, and Dunwoody’s attached two-car garages see daily use from commuters. When the spring goes, the door won’t lift, and you should not attempt to force it or wind a new spring yourself. High-tension springs can cause serious injury. Call us at (470) 486-7771.
• Frozen bottom seals to concrete aprons. Dunwoody’s late-winter ice events hit attached garages hard because many of these 1970s and 1980s builds don’t have floor drains or proper slope away from the door. Melt water collects, freezes, and the seal tears when the opener yanks the door up. We replace seals and, where possible, recommend a minor apron adjustment to reduce repeat failures.
• Non-standard rough openings. The 1970s-1990s build era in Dunwoody produced varied rough-opening dimensions, often 8’6″ or narrower than today’s standard 9-foot panels. A modern off-the-shelf panel won’t always fit without trimming or custom sizing. We measure first, always.
• HOA-required door styles clashing with repairs. If a panel needs replacement and your HOA mandates a sandstone carriage-house color, showing up with a white Amarr panel is a violation waiting to happen. We check the HOA’s approved spec sheet before we order anything, and we’ll handle the submittal paperwork for you.
