ADVANCE OVERHEAD GARAGE DOOR

Mike did an excellent job. Had him out years ago.

Great work, trusted his knowledge to do job correctly. Also helped fix garage door control panel wiring at no extra charge.

I called Mike in the morning and he was out the same afternoon to fix the broken spring and replace the second one. He was very nice and also professional, explained the situation, was up front with the costs, even gave a discount for the second door. Overall, I was very pleased with his work and the interactions with him. The cost shown was for two doors.

His previous repairs were just what I wanted, so I was sad to learn that he was not available for anything other than an estimate due to his medical break until April 2014. I will certainly call him again for future repairs (I need to replace some rollers, and the other door's spring is probably ready to break as well).

Great!!!

Mike was great. I would recommend him to anyone. He was on time and very professional. He was very thorough. He came the first time to install the keyless entry and to service the openers. After he did that, he found that I didn't have struts at the tops of the doors and my sensors were not aligned correctly. He came back on July 1 to do those jobs. He also programmed my garage door openers for my cars. You can't go wrong with Mike. Great Service!!

I don't disagree with his basic methodology for straightening the door.
But it was silly to yell at the homeowner.
He never finished the job.
Only one cable was replaced, although I was prepared to pay for both.
The upright was more-or-less straightened. (Although both uprights had "dimples" where his vice-grips were used to prevent the door from moving during the work. )
He never plugged in the opener and tested the door.
I straightened out the dimples in the uprights.
I replaced two wheels that seemed to have excessive play and I lubricated all moving parts.
One hinge was slightly bent, probably from the original cable failure.
As part of my wheel replacement work, I took it down and straightened it.
I mailed him a check for $125 because that was the agreed upon price for replacing the cable.
It is now six years later.
The door has not fallen down, nor have I had to replace any more wheels, although I do inspect and lubricate them seasonally.

I actually had Mike come back and replace the spring on the second door, we talked about it and he said the other spring would probably break within 1-3 years of the first one.
Make sure you allocate plenty of time, Mike is very thorough.
