When to Replace vs Repair Your Garage Door
Not every problem needs a brand-new door. Here is how to tell the difference.
Replace When
- Multiple panels are cracked, dented, or warped beyond repair
- The door is 15 to 20+ years old and showing wear throughout
- Rust has spread across the lower section or through the steel skin
- Your energy bills are high and the door has no insulation
- The door style no longer matches your home after a renovation
- Repeated repairs are costing more than a new door over time
Repair When
- Only one or two panels are damaged and the rest are solid
- A spring, cable, or roller has failed but the door itself is fine
- The opener stopped working but the door moves smoothly by hand
- A section of weatherstripping has torn or come loose
- The track is slightly bent but has not caused panel damage
- The door is under 10 years old and structurally sound

What Homeowners Say About Our Door Installations
I've enjoyed my new garage door + motor for about a month now. I spoke with a number of companies but Isaac @ IGD was the only one who presented me with real options to creatively maximize the clearance in my garage with a low ceiling height. This included mounting the motor all the way in the back of my garage and modifying the j-arm. Fran in the office has been wonderful to partner with and made sure everything from appointments to payments went smoothly. Worth noting that not all the creative details made it to install day, but a quick call helped sort things out and get the install back on track. I appreciate Isaac and Fran's attentiveness to helping me achieve my goals with replacing my garage door.
See it on GoogleThis company was professional from the start. Ashley answered the phone, answered my questions and provided additional information. She was pleasant and efficient. When I called back to schedule and Ashley not available, Fran picked up where Ashley left off and immediately got me on the schedule for next morning. Again pleasant and efficient, neither of them wasting my time. Just like I was told Sheffi called me in the morning to give me estimated time of arrival and then arrived on time. He very simply explained what he could do to repair my garage door, gave me a flat rate for labor and a flat rate for the parts. He made the repairs efficiently, showed me what he did, we tested the door and all was fine. It is a very old door and system and he gave me tips on how to make it last longer. I would contract with any of these Sheffi, Ashley and Fran again, they are who I am going to call when I need repairs or a new door. And they were the lowest price of 3 estimates. Sheffi was respectful and did not try to hard sell me. He only said he has the parts if I want to do it now. 1st estimate from another company was 35% higher, and the service person reduced the price 2 times trying to hard sell me after I told him that I was going to get another estimate. This guy was not professional at all. I basically had to tell him to leave. Then he called me and reduced the price again, almost 50% from where he started. Not doing business with them. 2nd estimate from a different company was also 35% higher than Instant Garage Door Repair-IGD. The service person was professional but didn't really seem to care if he got the work or not. I would give this experience with IGD 10 stars and would refer friends and family to them, and definitely use them again. Thank you to Sheffi, Ashley and Fran
See it on GoogleGrant was great! I have an old garage door that was off its rails. I didnโt want to buy a new door so he had to use his experience and expertise to get it to work again - so it could last a little longer. He really knew what he was doing and I really appreciate it. Thank you!

Frequently Asked Questions
Buying a new garage door is a big decision. These are the questions our installation customers ask most often.
01 How much does a new garage door cost in Renton?
Most residential garage doors cost between $800 and $3,500 installed, depending on size, material, and insulation. A basic single-car steel door starts around $800 to $1,200. A double-car insulated steel door typically runs $1,500 to $2,800. Custom wood or carriage-style doors can go higher. We provide a detailed written quote before any work begins.
02 How long does garage door installation take?
A standard replacement takes 3 to 5 hours. New construction installs can take a full day if framing or track modifications are needed. Most homeowners have a fully working door by the end of the appointment. We schedule installations in the morning so you are not left without a garage overnight.
03 What brands do you install?
We install doors from Clopay, Amarr, Wayne Dalton, CHI, and Northwest Door. Each brand offers different styles, insulation levels, and price points. We will walk you through the options and help you pick the best fit for your home and budget.
04 Do you remove and dispose of the old door?
Yes. Every replacement includes removal and disposal of the old door, tracks, and hardware. There is no extra charge for hauling away the old materials. We leave your garage clean and ready to use.
05 What is the difference between insulated and non-insulated garage doors?
Insulated doors have a layer of polyurethane or polystyrene foam between two steel panels. They keep your garage 10 to 20 degrees warmer in winter, reduce street noise, and feel more solid. Non-insulated single-layer doors are lighter and less expensive but offer no thermal protection. For attached garages in Renton, we recommend insulated doors for energy savings alone.
06 Can I change the size or style of my garage door opening?
Yes, but it depends on your garage structure. Widening or raising the opening requires framing work, new header beams, and sometimes electrical adjustments. We assess the feasibility during a free on-site consultation. Converting a single-car to a double-car opening is possible in some cases but involves more extensive structural work.
07 What warranty comes with a new garage door?
Every door we install comes with the manufacturer warranty, which varies by brand and model. Our labor is backed by a long-term warranty and 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. If anything is not right after installation, we come back and fix it at no extra cost.
