Donald came out from J.B. Matthews, Co. (now Southern Dock Products).(407- 656-1289) He was prompt, efficient, professional and personable. My door works fine. The company was recommended to me by a friend.
Description of Work: The garage door would not open. The springs were replaced. It works very quietly now--no more loud squeaks, like it had for months.

I thought everything was fine until I had the springs replaced two days ago and discovered that in 2011 they installed springs dated 2006. Consequently, the springs didn't last as long as they should have. I can only think that they sold me used springs. They offered to replace the springs at a discount. Their "discounted" price was more than they originally charged for the springs.

Excellent, on time, professional, clean and explained clearly what needed to be done and why. This was covered by a home warranty so I don't know their cost but I would use this company again even at my cost.

They were prompt, courteous, and professional. We would definitely use them again, with our without home warranty.
Description of Work: We had issues with the garage door not going down as it should. JB Matthews is the company our home warranty company sent for the repair. (The amount listed above is our deductible. I'm not sure what the actual charge would be.) On the first visit the garage door operated perfectly so the repairman set up a situation where , when the situation reoccured, we could help determine what the problem was. He also called the Genie factory to discuss possible issues. When the problem reoccurred we called, they came out immediately and repaired the unit.

Called because remote was not consistantly opening garage door. I had tried two other companies who were unable to fix the problem. Precision charged a service fee and was unable to fix the problem. The technician advised that I would probably need to replace the garage door opener if what he did didn't work. The second tech could find no solution either. He did not charge me. So I decided to replace the battery in the remote unit, but the garage door still did not did not respond or got stuck part way during opening or closing. I then called the company that originally installed the garage door opener, J. B.Matthews. Rather than spend $100 for someone to come out and investigate the problem and come up with a solution, it was suggested that I reset the codes. By following procedures I printed on line for the model of garage door opener I have, I was able to reset the codes on my own. The problem seems to be corrected. I will definately call JB Matthews back should the problem return. I appreciate their honesty in allowing me to problem shoot and correctly fix the remote without assuming what the problem was or unnecesarily billing a service fee.
Description of Work: Adjusting and cleaning sensors. Cleaning rust and dust from springs, chains and other exposed parts.

I have been using JB Matthews since 2001. Today, I was stunned and disappointed with the level of service I received. I spoke with Robert around 5:23 a.m. this morning regarding a nonfunctional garage door opener (off track-moves but does not open). Robert who was prompt and had good customer service, informed me that there would be an after hours fee for a Saturday call that would include paying for the driver's transportation to my home. I explained that I needed to leave my home by 9:30 this morning and he said okay. Robert called at 7:24 to informed me that he was trying to locate a tech because one tech was on weekend drill this weekend. He asked if the tech had contacted me yet and I responded, no. At 7:32 a.m. the tech (Chuck) called to inform me that he lives in Green Cove Springs and it would take about 1.5 hours to get to me and 1.5 hours for him to return home, which would cost me at least $425 to place the garage door opener back on track. I declined this service as I considered this price to be outrageous. Thank God for Angie's List! I was able to locate another company who was very professional, has an "A" rating, called me back within 5 minutes and who was available to come out today.
Description of Work: I contacted JB Matthews regarding my garage door opener. After the tech contacted me, informed me about the amount of time if would take him to arrive and the estimated price (but will cost at least $425) I decided I would select another company.

Great experience, we have used there services again at another property.
Description of Work: Garage door was stuck in a half open position. Technician came out to and accessed the situation. Since the repair cost was over the normal service/trip charge the technician called me and explained the situation. One of the door springs were broken and the second one was in bad shape. He recommended replacing them both at the same time. Since this is a rental property we had to consult with the owner but he elected to replace both springs.

Service was prompt. However, the serviceman forgot to set some kind of button before he left, and the door became unreliable within a few weeks. However, when I called about the problem, they returned free of charge and fixed the problem promptly.
Description of Work: My door opener needed repair. I thought the remote was broken, but it turned out to be the sensor on the opener. The service man identified the problem and fixed it.

Salesman came to home location, viewed damaged door, then sought to contact manufacturer to obtain 2 new panels as replacement for damaged panels. He was informed that this model door has been discontinued. He had brochure for another manufacturer who makes similar style, (recesses slightly deeper than original design, otherwise identical). Salesman, advised me to save spring and undamaged panels from old door. After color check, placed an order for new door. Approximately, 9 days later, he called to say new door has arrived when can he setup installation? The next day, subcontractor, Monahan Overhead Doors (904-217-0445), arrives with new door and proceeds to remove old unit and install new door. The whole job took approximately 3 hours. He cleaned up after himself and removed damaged panels and unused hardware. All in all a painless, but somewhat costly experience (my fault, not theirs).
Description of Work: Replace garage door (damaged when homeowner backed into it [attention diverted by jogger who appeared unexpectedly]). Contacted this contractor because the firm designated as distributor for manufacturer of exsisting garage door & since only bottom two panels affected, sought to minimize cost by replacing only them. Unfortunately, manufacturer no longer produces this style door so had to replace entire unit with another manufacturer's door which is almost identical in appearence. (Live in townhome community, and must maintain appearence consistent with other units [HOA requirements]).

We had one of the springs break (the other one was replaced in 2004). Due to various reasons, JB Mathews replaces both springs at the same time. The technician arrived as scheduled and not only replaced both of the springs but also lubed and checked everything else associated with the door.

The work was done in two steps. On the first day one fellow did mechanical things, and determined that the opener unit was shot and had to be replaced. He notified the home office, On the next day, another fellow came and replaced said unit.
Description of Work: The garage door tracks had to be straightened out, the springs had to be reloaded, the tension wires replaced, and the automatic opener unit replaced.

I went to a couple Home Centers to see what they could recommend and got nowhere. I spoke with a rep from the company at the Orlando Home Show. No pressure to replace the door (though I asked for a quote and it was much more reasonable than the Home Centers as well). I decided to repair the door for now since the cost wasn't bad; $100. The appointment was scheduled a day or two after my call, and completed quickly and courteously. I would definitely recommend them and plan to use them to replace my garage door within a year.

WE SELECTED THIS COMPANY AFTER WE HAD UNSUCCESSFULLY ORDERED A MORE COSTLY AND INFERIOR PRODUCT. THANKFULLY, WE FOUND THIS COMPANY IN THE YELLOW PAGES AFTER GETTING VARIOUS ESTIMATES. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THEIR SERVICE. UPON OUR REQUEST, THEY HAD SOMEONE COME TO GIVE US AN ESTIMATE. THE GARAGE DOOR WAS INSTALLED WITHIN THREE WEEKS OF OUR ORDER. IT WAS AMAZING TO SEE HOW ONE INDIVIDUAL COULD PUT IT ALL TOGETHER IN JUST ONE MORNING! THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS ALSO BEEN VERY RECEPTIVE TO OUR QUESTIONS.
