Your Garage Door Guys
Ali Karim19:15 16 Jul 19Great father and son team; excellent, fast service. Everything is explained simply and clearly, and only the necessary... work is explained and done. Reasonably priced. Highly recommended; will only use these guys from now on.read moreJules Stuart16:21 16 Jul 19As a homeowner, one of our highest priorities is to find repair & service businesses that do good work and can be... trusted. After 24 years in our previous home, we recently moved and are now faced with starting over again to find businesses that we can count on to maintain our new house. When our garage door recently stopped working, we were at a loss for a referral which is what we would normally do. However, we had seen advertising for 'Your Garage Door Guys' and called on them. Joel Lucas arrived at the scheduled time and immediately went to work fixing the door. What impressed us most was the time Joel spent after completing the servicing advising us on what we would need to do going forward with an opener that was not a very reliable brand/model. It would have been very easy for him to push for extra business right then, but instead, he advised that we get what we can from the opener while it still has life in it. He also advised us on servicing that should be performed to help it along (with no pressure to decide right then). Joel was courteous, professional, and told us that the repair that day was so minor, that there was no charge for that day’s servicing. The web site for 'Your Garage Door Guys' indicates that their business built its reputation on quality, and integrity. We can confirm that they definitely met and exceeded our expectations for quality and integrity, as well as for professionalism, knowledge, and courteousness. We will definitely be calling on them again and recommending them to others.read moreSteve and Carolyn Bender23:42 05 Jul 19I would recommend Joel Lucas as top notch -- he is dependable, thoughtful, and wants to please besides doing really... good work !

They even made some free adjustments to the rails when... they came out for the initial quote before I decided to use their services on an opener replacement. Will definitely use in the future and recommend to friends and family. I had the belt driven liftmaster installed and it's a huge difference in the lack of noise it makes compared to my previous screw driven opener. No complaints.read moreElijah Oliver17:42 10 May 19My door spring broke and went and asked on social media about a garage door company and was referred to these guys.... Called them up and spoke to Joel. He gave me a quote over the phone depending on how many springs I had which was a good price. I setup an appointment. He arrived a few minutes early. I showed him the door and since I noticed that I only have one spring and most doors I've seen have two I asked him the difference (pros and cons). He explained it very clearly and I decided to have it converted to two springs. He went to work and was finished in less than an hour including lubing the door and resetting pressure limits. He even lowered the sensors to make sure that they were to code. He charged me as quoted. Fast, Friendly and Prompt service at a good price! Thanks guys!read moreMatt Blue13:28 07 May 19These guys are Awesome!! They really did me a solid, worked with my schedule and did a great job. They were also very... reasonable on the price too.

After reading excellent reviews, I called a few places but... this one is by far the best. I got detailed information without fluff and without the usual salesman energy that we usually get when making a big purchase. Bill is the heart and soul of this operation. He is professional, thorough and set me at ease when I asked him questions and requested recommendations. His installation team was punctual and quick and my new garage door is just lovely. I am quite impressed and will recommend them to anyone who asks.read moreRobert R04:51 22 Apr 19Joel is awesome. He just fixed the garage door and it is working better than ever.

A garage door doesn’t just serve a utilitarian purpose; it also takes up the majority of your home’s façade. A report from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development states that around 80% of American homeowners have a garage in their home. As the average garage door continues to function well for the most part of its lifespan, many homeowners forget to conduct routine inspections of their garage doors to check if anything’s wrong.
Used almost every day, a faulty or malfunctioning garage door can be a major convenience. Not only that, it can become dangerous as well. A survey from the National Electronic Injury Surveillance System showed that around 13,000 people check in the hospital annually for garage door-related injuries.
Look out for these warning signs that indicate your garage door needs repairs.
The Door Isn’t Opening or Closing
This is an obvious sign: if your garage door refuses to open or close when you press the control buttons, then something’s wrong. There could be many reasons why your garage door might be failing to function properly; from some defect in the control panel to the door itself malfunctioning.
It’s Taking Too Long to Respond
A slow response time is another indicator that something’s amiss with your garage door. Ideally, the garage door should open or close within a few seconds after your command. It should also open and close smoothly, without any hitches or delays. If it’s being unusually slow to respond, get it checked.
Strange Noises
If your garage door is relatively old, some machine whirring noises are to be expected. However, if you hear any sort of grating, grinding, banging, rattling, straining, or any other unusual noise, it could be a sign of a defective garage door.
The Door Has Come Off the Tracks
Another obvious sign that something’s up with your garage door is when the door comes off the side tracks. A normally functioning garage door will operate within the sides of the garage door. But if it comes off, it’s time to call in a professional.
Some Sections are Sagging
Routine garage door maintenance includes conducting balancing checks on the door biannually. If some panels on your garage door are sagging, the door won’t be properly balanced. A sagging garage door could be a sign of something deeper. Get it checked to find out.
