Report
I called these folks as they installed the door, problem is the door catches and goes back up. The repair guy says its a sensor problem. So he greases the door hinges collects his fee, the door still catches and doesn't always go down. Yes the firm is punctual and yes the service person was nice, the fact is the door is still broken. So now I need a firm that listens to the owner and can fix my problem, not one that comes in and does the ole maintenance trick and collects a fee.

Report
Bought our house in 2020. The garage door opener failed. The technician identified the problem immediately (belt drive and pulley) and fixed it. He also showed me how to lubricate the garage door, something that probably had not been done in the 20 years since it was installed (by Roy North). Scheduling was also well done. I got a date, they called early in the day to gave me a 2 hour window. The technician arrived on time. They have been in the business for 50 years. It shows. Excellent service.

Work was performed on time as promised. Installers were professional and efficient. I did require a warranty visit due to a board failure and they were prompt in getting out to remedy the issue. Highly recommend them.

One of the few efficient operations left in 2022! Efficient appointment, efficient technician (Tyler) and efficient repair and new hardware. Showed up right on time and completed the job in less than a half an hour. I highly recommend this company for anyone in need of a garage door or repair.

Report
Purchased a smart opener from them and while installation went fine, I was advised it was my responsibility to connect to WiFi since they were not responsible to do so. Have tried repeatedly to connect however nothing has worked to date. Called them for guidance but they have no one onboard to help so they gave me phone number to call manufacturer. As is too frequently the case almost impossible to get a live voice without waiting on phone for 20 minutes. (Their estimated waiting time.) Opener still not fully working and the experience has been very disappointing.
