"Thank you so much for the review, however I think you may have clicked on the wrong company. We are located in Staten Island and do not service the Chappaqua area. I am sure the company you did business with would love to have this nice review Happy Holidays Andrew"

We have no problem with the price, nor quality of the materials or workmanship.  The reasons we lowered the grade are as follows:
1. We were told when we received the original estimate that the work would be performed in about 3 weeks from that date.  It actually took over a month to get the appt. and we were never given an explanation nor an apology for the delay.
2. There was a relatively simple question regarding whether or not we were entitled to a discount through Angie's List that could have been resolved in one phone call.  Instead, it took four phone calls over the period of a week to get resolved.
3.  This is the main and most serious issue.   When the appointment was scheduled and confirmed, we were told that the technician would be arriving between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM.  When he hadn't shown up by 1:00, my wife, who had been waiting all morning for him, had to call the company to find out what what happening.  She was told that the technician was having a problem with his first job, and it was taking longer than anticipated.  The appointment was rescheduled  two more times later that day, and each time when the technician had not showed up within the time frame, it was my wife who AGAIN had to call the company to find out what was happening.   By this time, it would now be well after 3:00 before the technician would even get to our house, and since we were told that it could take 5 hours or even longer to complete, it seemed obvious to us that the job would have to be rescheduled for another day.  However, it was only after a rather vehement protest on our part, were we able to get the company to agree to reschedule.

"Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for taking the time out to give an honest review of your experience with our Company. Our goal is always to deliver what we promise in every way and it is obvious that we fell short of these goals. First I would like to apologize for having a less than great experience and based on your review overall everything was as you expected, but we obviously fell short and this helps us fix any problems with our protocols. 1. Generally when a Door is ordered an install date is held based on the Factories written delivery date. In some cases as in yours the Factory falls short of their goals as well and we don't get product delivered on time. in your case we were delayed a week. 2. As far as your a Angie's list Discount is concerned, ALL Angie's list members receive the same discount and this should have been communicated to you on the very first phone call. 3. Last and most important when we schedule an installation we realize you have made time in your day to receive us. In rare cases an installation may become more difficult or complicated than expected and all our Technicians have been trained to make sure when the installation is complete that it is perfect no matter how long it takes. This obviously impacts the second job when this happens and again this was in your case. Please know that the delay was because of our deep convictions in our quality and workmanship. Over all I know you are happy with the quality and workmanship of your new garage door but that is only part of the job, our customer service fell very short of our goals and for this please accept my sincere apologies. Training is a continued process at Christie Overhead door so when we don't reach our goals we take that opportunity to review, discuss and repair these issues. As the President I feel a personal obligation to you experience with our Company so please contact me if you ever need anything at all Sincerely Andrew Cimmino President"

Everything was great with that.  I chose them through Angie?s List.  They were just very nice to deal with.  They were prompt.  They returned my calls.  They were just pleasant to deal with.  They did a great job.  

They did a wonderful job.  I can't compare their prices to others but I guess it's compatible.  The quality in terms of the product is very good, very nice and it's beautiful.  They were very prompt.  they called me when they were coming.  They called me when they were on their way.  They were very good to deal with.  I had a minor issue which was no big deal and they just came back and took care of it so it was no problem.   They were great to deal with and even the office staff was wonderful.

Was in and out in less than fifteen minutes.  It was the outlet that was broken that the opener has originally been plugged into.
Response from Christie Overhead Door
"Thank you for the review and I understand your confusion. There was no way for you to know there was an Electrical problem with your outlet unless you called in a Professional. Our service charge is $75.00 plus tax so your actual payment was $81.66 to have a professionally trained Technician come out to your home and diagnose your real problem without taking advantage of you. Please copy and paste this link I am providing you of some dishonest Companies that were not happy collecting a Service fee. [hyperlink removed] Happy Holidays and thank you for using Christie Overhead Door Andrew"

"Thank you for the review, One of the many challenges we face is making security and storm Shutters blend with a Beautiful residential home like yours without being an eye sore. When open our Security shutters just melt into the façade of the house and when closed they provide great security and storm protection. Best Andrew"

"thank you for using us, I understand your frustration when ordering replacement parts for older doors. Manufacturers don't always make these replacement sections readily available individually. This is frustrating to us as well because our hands are tied from delivering prompt service to our valued customers. When all is said and done we were able to keep your existing door in service and saved you from replacing the entire door. Best Andrew"

Andrew showed up to our meeting ontime and provided me with an estimate on the spot. The price was right and job was done within the promised time frame. Job was done professionally. I'm extremely satisfied with their job.

"Thank you for the review, I am glad you are satisfied with our services. As a consumer myself I often wish prices were lower than they are on electronic parts. We have endured rising costs of quality Manufacture direct replacement parts for quite some time and rather than using cheap inferior parts we want to be confident your Automatic opener is fixed right with original top quality parts. Thanks again for your business and enjoy the benefits of quality. Andrew"

I met with the owner, Andrew, who was prompt, courteous, and thorough. I also had two more estimates, one from a big box store and the other a major retailer who both offer home improvement services. Needless to say, Christies was not only the most professional but also offered the best price. The whole process took approximately 3 weeks from order date to installation. The installer took 3 hours and upon completion thoroughly explained all of the features of the new door and keyless entry. It is my understanding that this company not only installs new doors but does garage door and opener repairs as well. I would definitely recommend this company for any garage door repairs.

"Thank you for the great review, its important for us to make the entire process successful for our customers.

They were professional, courteous, quiet, and swift.  I don't remember the name of the person who did the work, but I liked that he took the time to explain his findings and recommendations as well as describe exactly what he was going to do and why.  He completed the work quickly and even went out of his way to clean the garage door seal, something not strictly listed in the service.  My door now operates faster, more quietly, and the garage is warmer because the seals were adjusted.


Response from Christie Overhead Door
"Thank you for the opportunity to provide your garage door with superior service. Our Technicians are trained to review the entire door so any issues can be resolved in one trip. We recognize that it is our responsibility as professionals to advise you of possible ways to increase the value of your Service call and actually being a Service provider instead of a "Parts changer" Thanks again for the great review"
