What is actually in a garage door quote?
Four things make up a replacement quote: door, hardware and frame, labour, and disposal. Because the door itself is 50 to 65% of the cost, the spread between quotes is usually specification, not price-gouging, so insist that make, model, size, finish, hardware and warranty are all on paper before anyone orders anything.
Per-type pricing, honestly assessed
| Job | Typical price |

| Up and over, £700 to £1,400 fitted | Steel canopy or retractable; timber and GRP at the top |
| Insulated roller, £900 to £1,800 fitted | Foam-filled twin-wall aluminium slats; usually electric |
| Sectional, £1,200 to £2,500 fitted | 40mm-plus insulated panels for integral garages |

| Spring or cable repair, £90 to £180 | Always replaced in pairs on one-piece doors |
The extras that move quotes
Size: doubles cost roughly 40 to 60% more than singles. Non-standard openings need frame work. Woodgrain laminates, glazed panels, premium colours and battery backup all add. Coastal or exposed plots justify corrosion-resistant hardware, worth the small premium.
