They are quick and efficient and were courteous. Took maybe an hour and a half to replace the opener. I wish the keypad was included even if it wasn't "standard," as I found some cheaper ones online than the $45, but that's alright.
I would definitely use them again and recommend. Thanks for your service.
He came over very promptly and fixed the door. When looking at the invoice, we realized that our contact number was wrong. So the provider did try to call us, but had the wrong number. In the end, it wasn't that big of a deal--he provided the services at what we considered a good price.
We would use this company again.
Six-month follow-up:
A month after the door was installed, it had trouble opening...just like our previous door. So they didn't fix the problem, even though we have a beautiful new door. I tried to explain to them that we still had a problem, but they didn't seem to understand, and kept saying "the door and the opener are two different systems." I realize that, but when I call for help in getting my garage door open, I need help with the system, not just components.
Anyway, we asked for someone to come over and diagnose the actual problem, which turned out to be one of the sensors. They came over unannounced, replaced them, and never told us. A few weeks later we got a bill for $160. When I called to address this ninja-fix, they didn't understand why I was annoyed with the situation. Eventually, I was given a partial refund.
Now that Spring is here, we painted the doors and replaced the trim...except one piece of trim was missing - the large strip above the double-size door. I dropped by to see if I could pick it up, and they didn't have it, but said they would get one to me later that week. The week came and went, and nothing happened. So I went by again, they took my information again, and said they would be by with it in a couple of days. Nothing, again.
My wife called in, and they seemed to have no recollection of my request. So she tried to set up another drop-off. They said that they would call her the next day (yesterday) to schedule the drop-off. No call; still waiting, but you get the idea.
UPDATE: They came by about a week later after another call. Did a lot of work for free, and did a decent job.
Needless to say, they do great with hardware, but their communication and customer service need a ton of work.
"Mr (member name removed) called for a service call about a problem with door , we were there with in 2 hours and resolved problem after trying to tell him how to fix it himself over the phone , Mr (member name removed) had bumped his safety photo beams some how and knocked them out of line , our normal service call is $87.00 . We were there a very short time , but cheaper then electrician ($125.) Freestate Doors Cost just to go out to a job cost us between $50.00 and $60.00 dollars.( Trucks, tools, Insurance, overhead, payroll and taxes) I am sorry about his dissatisfaction ,but happy we were able to fix his door. Some people just can't be satisfied. If Mr (member name removed) would of contacted us, we would of been happy to adjust his bill to his satisfaction, but some people have trouble complaining face to face. But please see our other reviews, you will notice that we go up and beyond customer satisfaction. Scott Weatherwax President Freestate Doors Inc"
