Garage Door Garage Door Motor Replacement Indian Springs, NV
We run garage door motor replacement across Indian Springs and the surrounding area and the wider Clark County area — quick turnaround when you call early, flat-rate always, and guaranteed for ten years.
Indian Springs sits in Nevada's arid desert region — a harsh desert climate of brutally hot summers, mild winters, and relentless sun with wind-driven grit. That puts real stress on garage door hardware: we routinely see relentless UV that cracks weatherstripping and gaskets, extreme low humidity that dries out hinge and track lubrication, and extreme thermal cycling that loosens every fastener, and we fit parts rated to handle it.
Across Indian Springs and the surrounding area, what brings Indian Springs homeowners to us is UV-cracked bottom seals letting dust into the garage, prematurely fatigued springs from extreme heat-soak, dust-blinded photo-eye safety sensors, and openers straining and overheating in superheated garages — and we resolve it without a second visit.
Motor replacement is the right move when the opener's motor or gear assembly has failed but the rest of the unit (logic board, rail, sensors, remotes, wall console) is still in good shape. On a 6–9 year old LiftMaster or Genie, motor or gear replacement is typically 40–60% the cost of a full opener swap and gives you another 8–10 years of life. We carry motor and gear assemblies for the major brands and most models from the last 12 years.
Sizing matters. A motor sized for a light non-insulated 8x7 door will burn out fast on a heavy insulated 16x7. We size replacements by measured door weight: 1/2 HP for light residential, 3/4 HP for standard insulated, 1.25 HPS for heavy insulated or oversized doors. If the original opener was under-sized, we recommend an upgrade rather than matching the underspec original.
After motor replacement, we re-program travel limits, re-calibrate force settings, and verify auto-reverse on an obstruction test. The full visit takes 90–120 minutes including these checks. We include a 2-year parts and labor warranty on the motor replacement.

Common causes & what we fix
Capacitor age
Start capacitors dry out over 7–10 years and stop providing torque to the motor. Often misdiagnosed as motor failure. $25–$89 capacitor swap usually fixes.
Gear assembly wear
Nylon worm gears strip after years of cycles. The gear, not the motor, is failing — gear replacement is much cheaper than motor replacement.
Motor winding burnout
Genuine motor failure from over-load on heavy doors or sustained operation against an obstructed door. Replacement is the fix.
Power surges
Grid events damage motor electronics. Surge protection prevents the most common failures.
Bearing failure
Motor bearings fail at 12–15 years on average. Replacement is possible but often makes more sense as full motor swap.
