Gaithersburg, MD · Garage Door Service
Panel replacement for Gaithersburg homes built 1948-2015, where cold winters and aging steel sections crack, dent, and warp. Straight answers on cost and repair vs. replace.

We don't quote a number until we've seen the door. Panel replacement cost depends on whether your door is a common steel section still made by the original manufacturer or an older design that's been discontinued, and on how many panels are damaged versus just one. A single bottom panel on a door from the 1980s-90s stock that makes up most of this area's housing is usually a straightforward swap if the matching panel is still in production. Doors from the earlier end of the build range, back toward 1948, are a different story - some of those panel profiles haven't been manufactured in years, and we're stuck sourcing used stock or moving you to a full door replacement instead of a patch job.
The honest limitation here: we won't sell you a single new panel on a door where the rest of the sections are faded a different shade or dented from the same impact. Mismatched panels look worse than the damage did, and a lot of customers regret that choice a year later. If your door was built anywhere near the median year for this area - 1980 - ask us about panel availability before you commit, because that's the window where parts get harder to match.
