Diamond Certified, Angie’s List, BBB and local support were the reasons I selected Precision Garage Door. Tina did a great job in following up with my wife and I and our installer was prompt, efficient and cleaned up after the installation. Also a great job!

One of the overhead springs holding our garage door broke, with the car locked in. Jerry from Precision Garage Door arrived the *same day* I called within just a few hours and fixed the problem quickly by replacing both the broken spring and the other one. Jerry was extremely friendly, gave me options, and answered all my questions. Beyond just fixing the problem, Jerry exceeded my expectations by giving the garage door a quick lube and now it operates much quieter. He also replaced the J connector with a more compact one which gives my low-ceiling garage greater clearance -- a nice little upgrade that a professional eye may spot immediately, while I didn't even know it's a possibility. Overall, Jerry not only the problem, but he also made the garage door work even better than it did before it broke. The only reason I give 4 rather than 5 stars is that the repair was overall rather pricey, at $520 (for 2 springs and a few smaller parts). I suppose this is a company pricing policy rather than Jerry's, but I think this is on the higher end of the price range for such a repair.

We called Precision about a problem with our garage door not closing at 3:30pm and they had someone at our house before 5pm the same day. Alex Kogan our technician was very responsible and professional in his assessment of the problem with our garage door. He took the time to explain to me what went wrong with the door and he was very careful to replace the springs (the problem with the door) with ones that would be appropriate for our heavy garage door. After the repair, Alex also made sure I understood what I need to do for maintenance on the door going forward to avoid the problem in the future. Great to have someone who cares so much about quality and a good customer experience. Thanks!!

My garage door Torsion Spring broke in 2004, I called Precision Garage Door to replace it. It was broken yesterday and I called again, immediately they send Mario to replace it again with 50% service call discount. Mario did an fantastic job in 1 hour and I only need to pay he labor cost of replacing the spring, as it was under 10 years warranty.

Brandon Brooks inspect the garage door opener and pointed out all the worn out parts. He suggested I install a new one. I was not surprised since the opener was at least 35 years old. He had one on the truck which he installed. He worked quickly and thoroughly. I love all the new features which Brandon explained to me.

This is an outstanding company! We have been a customer of Precision Door for almost 20 years, Startring with a door/opener purchase in 2000, and followed by a purchase of a replacement door/opener in 2015. We have used them for all required service calls as well. Our most recent service was excellent as always. Perfect scheduling. James W. our service technician was very professional who arrived on time, and performed the repair in the estimated time with the highest quality. They have my highest recommendation.

Technicians Mario & Erik called in advance of arrival and arrived when promised. Both were very professional and courteous making good recommendations after examining my 20 year old overhead door. They made the repairs and serviced all other moving parts. I was pleased with their work and courtesy. My only negative is the pricing of the parts needing replacement: (2) seven foot torsion cables $286 and (2) cable drums $196.56. This did include labor to install but still seemed somewhat expensive.

I called Precision because I couldn't open my garage door, and Gabriel came out within 90 minutes. He gave me a clear estimate of the work and the price and then he replaced the broken spring. He explained all his work to me and did a wonderful job! And he was friendly and nice as well. Definitely 5 stars for Gabriel and Precision.

James W. was the service technician who responded to my call for replacement of a broken spring. He was professional, took the time to inspect my garage door, and provided me with an overview of existing and potential problems Although I did not have him replace all of the components he identified that might need replacing at some future time there was NO pressure to have the suggested work done at this time. The replacement of door springs and cables was done quickly and efficiently in just over an hour. Overall, I am very pleased with James and his efficient and timely service.

Precision door is a excellent company to have your garage door done. Mario the technician did a fantastic job on the installation. He was very professional and new what he was doing. All the trades should have a technician like Mario and that is why I give Precision door a solid 5 star rating.

Jerry showed up on time and diagnosed why our garage door wouldn’t open. There were 3 problems with how our door had been installed. He then fixed them quickly and we were up and running. He also educated me on how to better maintain the doors — I learned a lot — and as an extra bonus he pointed out a mistake in how our fence was installed (totally unrelated to the garage door) that I could fix. He really went above and beyond!

The Pros: Answered the phone at 5am when I called. Very courteous on the phone, detailed, and immediately gave an acceptable window (10am-2pm). The Cons: Didn't call ahead of time despite telling me he would (minor). Coming near the end of the window (minor). Then the work was "You have to get all these things new", which included two springs, a roller, and two drums. The full cost was $1125 with installation. I then checked and found a new door, fully installed, from another company would be closr to $1300, and it would include an actual new door, springs, motor, and everything else. We ended up paying because our car was trapped in the garage before the guy arrived, and we didn't feel comfortable saying "No" after he started working. So, while prompt, if you can avoid calling them, you should.

We've had great service from James W and Precision Overhead Garage Door in the past, so when our garage door didn't work the evening of Thanksgiving we knew who to call. James and Mario were able to come early this afternoon, and pretty quickly ascertained that old Genie had breathed its last gasp (he reset the motherboard by unplugging the power for 20 seconds, and the motor started, but was struggling to lift the door). Amazing it lasted as long as it had...Within about an hour we had a new, modern LiftMaster with new rails, new safety lights, digital programmable keypad, back-up battery (CA requirement as of the 1st of the year), and LED lights. Amazingly quiet operation! James and Mario left the garage as neat as they had found it (no cars, just my motorcycle and a ton of boxes they had to remove and replace). Definitely, Precision is the company to call for all your garage door needs!

They sent the technician that day and I was grateful. And they did the good service but as I did not have time to compare service fees I was panicking for the price I paid for this unexpected situation. I was impressed with the owner Pat who has listened to my concern and took a look at my invoice and gave me a discount. More than the discount I was so grateful to be heard. I just saw this email and I can tell that they are conscientious. Ty!
