Austin Garage Door Insulation

Recent Review: Perfectly, Rusty the technician was on-time, courteous and professional. He got everything done (and more) quickly and efficiently and I was very happy with the work he did. In fact, he called out an energy wasting issue with the door insulation that I wouldn't have noticed and we have scheduled to have that work carried out next week with the same company. Highly recommended.

Recent Review: Dave was very professional, explained all of the options and the rationale for his recommendations, and was prompt in providing a bid. The work was scheduled and a few days later, the garage technician, Darrell, came out to the house and the work was done quickly, quietly and with no hassles. I'd definitely recommend Cowart if you want to deal with a professional organization and don't mind paying a little more money for a hassle free transaction.

Recent Review: Doors did not come on time and when they did they were not the doors we ordered. They expedited the shipment of the correct doors. Except for the delay, the job was done well and we are very happy with the doors.

Recent Review: Great service, on time, job completed to my satisfaction.

Recent Review: We bought the Angie's deal for garage door insulation. Todd called us back the same day to make arrangements to do the work. He came out within the next couple of days & did the work. He also did an inspection to determine where we could improve the flow of heat from our house. He told us we could use 14 soffit vents & an attic tent to improve circulation. We considered the offer overnight & told him the next day we would allow the recommended work. Todd is very friendly & he seems to know his stuff. He was always punctual, & happy. He was very professional & quick. The only minor complaint we have is he didn't sweep up his mess in the back yard after cutting the soffit vents. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others, & in fact I already have recommended him to my neighbor.

Recent Review: Overall, a pleasing and satifactory experience. Both owners, Mike and Amory provided good advice to enable us to make an informed decision on our purchase. Would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Recent Review: This was a fine job and I have no complaints. The work was done quickly and efficiently. The garage door works like a dream. I would say that Lowe's people are very skillful. They came on time and they were professional, neat, and courteous.

Recent Review: Wow! Great response! I called and left a message at 7a and was called back within the hour, and had Victor at my home exactly when promised. He was very polite, professional and completed the garage door spring repair in about 30 minutes. The price was very reasonable for two springs and service time. I will definitely use them again.

Recent Review: They explained all the options to us, we were very happy with their service.

Recent Review: The work was completed promptly and on time. The guys even added auto closing hinges to our side gates to protect our dog from escaping (at no charge)! We are very pleased with the work and look forward to using Green Igloo in the future when we decide to purchase new windows and doors.

Recent Review: They had worked on my garage door/opener in the past. Last year my opener's hardware failed and it caused my garage door to start to rip on the upper panel. That was the first time I had them come out and they replaced my opener and braced my garage door. When my door started sounding funny again I called them out, it was easy because they put a sticker near the opener button. This time it was apparent that whole garage door needed to be replaced. The technician(Subino) temporary braced my garage door and warned me that I needed to replace it sooner rather than later. He didn't charge me for the bracing or the service visit. Since I had never priced or replaced a garage door before I called a couple of companies, including my go to Costco. My last garage door was the builder level door, that ripped after 15 years, this time I wanted double steal insulated garage door. All Area Overhead door's price was the cheapest by far, with exactly what I wanted. They were able to install my new garage door the next day! Everything was smooth and as expected. The technician even moved the bracing from my last door to my new door. (This would help with wind resistance, not really needed but there is no harm in having them on my new door. Every experience I have had with All Area Overhead has been a great one.

Recent Review: The guys from Handyman Connection, Chris and MIles, arrived on time. They worked very hard and completed the work quickly and efficiently, despite the oppressive heat. They were very knowledgable and friendly, too. We were very happy with both the quality and cost of the work they did. I will definitely call Handyman Connection again, when I need work done.

Recent Review: The drain stopped up in our upstairs HVAC unit, the service tech showed us that the heating unit was around 18 yrs old, rusty and would probably not make it through the winter. We knew the units were old and decided to replace both the Heating & AC units with high efficiency units ($6,443). The salesman seemed knowledgable about HVAC systems, energy efficient measures that his company performed and he was up to date on rebates & tax credits for energy efficient improvements. He explained that if we added insulation ($965) & building/duct sealing ($1,453) we would qualify for additional rebates from the utility company & tax credits that would help offset the cost. We agreed because it seemed like we would receive rebates for improvements that would save $$ on our utilities & they were able to get us 0% interest for 12 months. The process took longer than we thought the estimate was provided on 11/3/11 The units were installed on 11/28/11 and the insulation & building/duct sealing was done the following week on 12/7/11 with final inspection on 12/20/11. We understand that part of the delay was because the city inspector had to come out before the work was started & again after all work was complete. We received $200 rebate from Lennox in December, however as of 1/18/12 we are still waiting for the other rebates. Do look over the paperwork & ask lots of questions make sure you understand costs & rebates. Looking back we should have asked more questions & looked at the paperwork more closely. I've gone over the paperwork several times & I'm not sure how much we will be receiving in rebates & from where. Do make sure they are replacing only the equipment you want replaced. We should have noticed that they included a new thermostat, the one they removed was programmable, easier to use & less than 2 yrs old. Don't spend money on things you can do yourself. We also could have used the $1453 towards the cost of replacing our single pane windows instead of paying someone to replace door insulation & seal ductwork. Live and learn I guess. All in all the people we dealt with were courteous and professional the units are working great I'll find out this summer if spending all this money is going to pay off in reduced utility bills.
