23-point inspection: spring tension, cable wear, roller condition, photo-eye alignment, opener gear health, and full lubrication. Extends door life 30%.
Tice annual tune-up, done by a crew that works this area daily. We see storm-driven water and debris in the tracks, moisture-tripped openers and sensors, salt-pitted spring coils that fail early near the coast, and mildew and rust on shaded, low hardware most often here, and we carry the parts to resolve them on the first visit.
We spec every Tice job for the environment it lives in. Given a hot, humid tropical climate — warm temperatures year-round, heavy rain, salt-laden air, and a long storm season, the failure modes we plan around are storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, mildew and corrosion on shaded, low hardware, and constant humidity that swells wood doors and rusts steel hardware — and we carry the corrosion-resistant parts to match.
The calls we get most in Tice are storm-driven water and debris in the tracks, moisture-tripped openers and sensors, salt-pitted spring coils that fail early near the coast, and mildew and rust on shaded, low hardware. Each is something our trucks are stocked to fix on the first visit — no waiting on parts.
Annual tune-ups extend garage door life by roughly 30% and catch the small problems that turn into emergencies. The math is straightforward: a $99 tune-up that detects a worn cable adds five minutes of work, while the same cable snapping at 6 a.m. on a Tuesday is a $400 emergency call. Our 23-point inspection covers every wear surface on the door — springs, cables, drums, rollers, hinges, bearing plates, tracks, brackets, opener gear and chain/belt — plus the safety systems (photo-eyes, auto-reverse).
Every tune-up includes a written report listing every component checked, its current condition (Good / Watch / Action), and an estimate for any flagged items. We don't pressure-sell tune-ups; if your door is in great shape and only needs lubrication, the report will say so and you'll be on your way. Most homes go 3–5 years on a tune-up cadence with no other service required.
Tune-ups are also the right call before listing a home. We provide a signed inspection report that homeowners share with prospective buyers — eliminating one common inspection-period negotiation. The same report works for insurance audits and rental-property compliance.
Annual is the recommended cadence, but homes in coastal corrosion zones or heavy-use households (multiple drivers, 4+ cycles/day) benefit from semi-annual service.
Door is noticeably louder than last year
Increasing noise is the earliest sign of bearing, roller, or hinge wear. Lubrication and adjustment at this stage prevents the underlying components from failing.
Visible rust or pitting on springs/cables
Surface rust on springs and cables means corrosion has already started weakening the wire. A tune-up catches this before the part snaps.
Opener strains on cold mornings
Cold weather thickens lubricants and stresses opener motors. A tune-up with fresh lubrication restores winter performance.
Pre-listing inspection prep
A signed tune-up report from a licensed contractor preempts buyer-inspection negotiations on the garage door — a small but consistent win on home sales.
Common causes & what we fix
Lubrication degradation
Factory grease on springs, hinges, and bearings dries out over 12–18 months. Re-lubrication restores quiet operation and slows wear.
Track fastener loosening
Vibration over thousands of cycles backs off track bracket screws. Annual re-torque keeps the track stable and the door tracking straight.
Photo-eye drift
Sensor brackets shift slightly with temperature cycling. Misaligned eyes cause refuse-to-close behavior. Annual realignment keeps the safety system in spec.
Cable fraying
Cables wear slowly from drum contact. Annual inspection catches fraying years before snap, allowing scheduled replacement instead of emergency dispatch.
Roller bearing wear
Steel rollers wear out their bearings on a slow curve. Annual inspection flags the bad ones for proactive replacement during a planned visit.

Frequently asked about annual tune-up
Top questions homeowners searching for Annual Tune-Up near me ask us:
Census data puts 81% of Tice homes at pre-1980 construction (median build year 1967) — old enough that many garages still run their original springs, opener, and seals, all long past rated life.
Tice sits in a hot, humid tropical climate — warm temperatures year-round, heavy rain, salt-laden air, and a long storm season. That is hard on a door — storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, mildew and corrosion on shaded, low hardware, and constant humidity that swells wood doors and rusts steel hardware all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are storm-driven water and debris in the tracks, moisture-tripped openers and sensors, salt-pitted spring coils that fail early near the coast, and mildew and rust on shaded, low hardware. We size springs and seals for Florida's tropical climate conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
Most tune-ups run 60–90 minutes. Heavily neglected doors (10+ years without service) may take 2 hours to fully lubricate and adjust.
Yes — high-cycle commercial doors benefit even more from scheduled maintenance, often quarterly or semi-annually. Ask about service contracts.
We prefer you're home so we can walk through the report and any findings together, but it's not strictly required. Many homeowners book tune-ups while they're at work and we leave the written report on the workbench.
