Spring and Cable Repair Services in Burnaby
Spring replacements in Burnaby come up frequently because of the relentless moisture. Even on North Burnaby's hillside, where homes sometimes see light snow, the bigger issue is rain - springs that aren't maintained with regular lubrication corrode faster than most homeowners expect. In the dense residential neighborhoods of Capitol Hill and Deer Lake, we regularly find springs on mid-1980s and 1990s homes that are well past their service life. We complete most Burnaby spring replacements in one visit and always inspect cables and drums at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely. In Burnaby's coastal climate, unlubricated springs develop surface corrosion that creates micro-pits in the steel. Each pit becomes a stress point, and over time the spring snaps well before reaching its rated cycle count.
It's not unusual for low-use doors, but those springs are well past their safe service life regardless of how they look. Springs lose tension over time even without cycling, and a 40-year-old spring in Burnaby's humid climate is a failure waiting to happen.
A light spray of silicone-based lubricant twice a year helps significantly in Burnaby's damp climate. Avoid WD-40, which is a solvent and not a lubricant. Apply it to the coils in spring and fall, and wipe away any excess.
