Garage Door Business Cash Flow Breakdown 💰🔧

A lot of people see garage doors as “just repairs” — but when you look at the numbers, it’s one of the most profitable service businesses you can run. Here’s a simple breakdown:

🛠️ Common Jobs & Average Ticket

Spring Replacement: $300–$600
Opener Install: $500–$900
Full Door Replacement: $1,500–$5,000+
Quick Service Call (cables, rollers, sensors): $150–$250

💵 Typical Costs

Springs: $40–$80 each
Openers: $200–$350
Doors: $700–$1,200 (basic)
Hardware/Travel: $20–$40 per job

📊 Profit Margins

Service/Repair: 60–80%
Openers: 40–50%
Doors: 30–40% (but bigger tickets = bigger cash flow)

👉 The crazy part? With just 2–3 jobs a day, you can easily do $1,000+ revenue daily — even as a solo operator. Scale it up with a helper or tech and the numbers multiply fast.

🚀 In upcoming posts I’ll break down:

Startup costs (what tools + parts you actually need).
Marketing that brings in leads consistently.
How to systemize so you’re not stuck on every job.

💬 Question for you guys: Which breakdown do you want me to go deeper into first — startup costs or marketing/lead gen?
