I called Garage Door Specialists and they dispatched a technician within half an hour. He arrived, asked about the situation, looked at the broken door and track, and quoted it. I agreed to the price, and he went to work. He untangled the loose cables, re-threaded them, loosened and re-tensioned the springs, and had the door back in the track within thirty minutes. He then straightened the track that had pulled out from the wall and used longer bolts than the originals to secure it. Finally, he lubricated all of the moving parts and tested the door.
It is now working more smoothly and quietly than before it broke. The repair was accomplished quickly, professionally, and properly within a couple of hours from the time I called. The price paid was the price quoted. We're quite happy with this company and would use them again.
The installer, Justin, arrived on time, professionally dressed and in a clearly marked company vehicle. Upon surveying the project, the installer advised me that there was going to be a slight problem with the install. Because of the distance between the top of the garage door and the mounting location of the door opener, the opener was going to have to be shortened in order to fit and operate correctly. This was going to incur an additional $50 in labor, bringing the total to $375.
Fortunately, a neighbor with the same floorplan had mentioned the problem to me prior to getting this service done and I had already anticipated that I would have to be flexible with the price of the install.
The installation went perfectly with the end result being a garage door that now opens and closes automatically.
The installer went above and beyond by also adjusting and lubing both garage doors AND he also took the time to adjust the garage door opener that had already been installed on the other door. The installer also took the time to show me the critical areas needing lubrication and also how to adjust the tension on the chain drive openers should they need adjusting in the future.
I would definitely use Garage Door Specialists again.

I called on a Friday morning hoping to schedule a visit sometime the next week, and they were able to come the same day.
Justin quickly diagnosed the cause and proceeded to make necessary repairs. He also checked and lubricated the rollers, adjusted spring tension. The end bearings on the pulleys were worn, causing slack tension, so I approved replacement of these and the door functioned well. I pointed out two roller brackets that had been modified by the prior owner with wood shims. He repositioned and remounted these so they would be secure, and adjusted them as well. I also requested replacement of the bottom gasket, as it had been gnawed by an animal at some point in the past. Throughout the process Justin was working efficiently and quickly, having the correct tools and parts on hand.
