Something wrong with your garage door opener? You’re not the only one. We’ve had quite a few calls lately from folks in Heritage Park, West Ranch, and even right off FM 2351. Whether it’s a noisy motor, a remote that’s lost its mind, or a door that just won’t budge — we know how frustrating that can be, especially when you’re just trying to get to work or pick up the kids from school.
We’re 24/7 Garage Doors Inc — your local crew that shows up when your opener decides to stop working at the worst possible time.
Why Your Garage Door Opener Is Acting Up
Let’s be real — most people don’t think about their garage door opener until it breaks. One day it’s fine, the next it’s making weird grinding sounds or ignoring the remote like it doesn’t know you anymore.
Some of the most common problems we see in Friendswood homes:
- The motor’s humming but nothing moves
Usually means the gear’s stripped or the chain’s loose. - Remote or keypad isn’t working
Could be dead batteries, sure — but more often it’s wiring or signal issues. - Door starts to open, then shuts itself
We’ve seen this a bunch in Forest Bend and Windsor Estates — sensors might be out of alignment or the logic board is on its last leg. - Garage light flickers or doesn’t come on
More than just an annoyance — this can be a sign the unit’s starting to fail.
We’ve worked on openers from LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman, and others. Doesn’t matter if it’s a chain drive, belt drive, or screw drive — we’ve fixed them all.
A Real Story From West Ranch
Last month, we got a late-night call from a couple in West Ranch. They were coming home from dinner and their garage door wouldn’t open — totally stuck halfway. Their car was full of groceries (and melting ice cream), and they had no way in.
We showed up within the hour, found a broken safety sensor, swapped it out, re-tuned the opener, and got the door working again in under 45 minutes. They were so relieved, they sent us a thank-you card — and yes, we helped save the ice cream.
This kind of thing happens more than you think.
We’re Local. Like, Really Local.
Our trucks are rolling through Friendswood every day. If you’re near Friendswood Lakes, Sunmeadow, or even close to Clear Brook High School, chances are we’ve already done work on your street.
Because we live and work in the area, we understand what homes in Friendswood need. The humidity, the temperature swings, the salty air — all that wears on garage components over time. And not every opener is built for Texas weather.
That’s why we only install and repair parts that hold up in this climate.
What You Can Expect When You Call Us
When your garage door opener quits, here’s what happens when you call 24/7 Garage Doors Inc:
- A real person answers. No waiting on hold or confusing phone trees.
- We ask a few quick questions. What’s going on, what type of opener you have, etc.
- We schedule your repair — fast. Same-day appointments available, even weekends.
- Our tech shows up with everything they need. Tools, parts, and the know-how.
- You get a working opener again — without the headache.
Our goal is to fix it right the first time. If it’s not worth fixing, we’ll tell you straight up and give you options for a replacement opener — no pressure, no upsell games.
Quick Troubleshooting Before You Call
Here are a few simple things you can check before picking up the phone:
- Try the wall button and the remote. If neither work, it’s probably a power issue.
- Check the safety sensors. Are they blinking? Dirty? Blocked? Wipe them off and try again.
- Listen to the motor. If it sounds like it’s straining, stop using it — you don’t want to burn it out.
- Pull the red emergency cord. See if you can open the door manually. If not, the issue may be with the door, not the opener.
Still stuck? Don’t stress. We’ll get it sorted.
Common Repairs We Handle Daily
These are some of the garage door opener problems we fix every week in Friendswood:
- Stripped opener gears
- Loose or broken chains/belts
- Worn-out logic boards
- Broken limit switches
- Fried capacitors or motors

Should You Repair or Replace Your Opener?
If your opener is more than 10–12 years old and keeps acting up, it might be time for a new one.
We’ll always try to repair if we can. But sometimes it’s just not worth sinking more money into a worn-out motor or outdated tech.
New openers have a ton of useful features:
- Built-in Wi-Fi and smartphone control
- Battery backup (great during power outages)
- Quiet belt drive systems (your neighbors will thank you)
- Improved security and rolling-code tech
We’ll walk you through the options and help you choose something that fits your home, your budget, and your lifestyle.
