I'm reluctant to "tag" a guy for lousy service who, to this point, has had an excellent performance record on Angie's List. Maybe there's a plausible explanation -- e.g., sick, on vacation, etc. But, if so, an appropriate change in his phone message wording would have been helpful.
Description of Work: I called Joel (602-494-6299) about 10 am on 2/9/11 and, with no answer, left a message as instructed with my name, phone number and a short message that I needed service on the single door for my 2-car garage -- occasional "new" noises/"groans" from the door while raising/lowering it. I again called Joel (602-494-6299) about 11:40 am on 2/10/11 and, again with no answer, left another message as instructed, referencing the previous day's call and my name, phone number and a comparable message. I never received a return call for my two messages.

I got him out of Angie's List. I thought he did excellent work. His name is Joel Pfisthner. His work was excellent and I would use him again. The garage door had broken lips from vandalism that occurred before I bought the house in 2006.The price of a new garage door depends on the kind of door you get. Replacing the circuit board cost $165.00 and the tax was about $10.00. The garage door was a 16 by 7 double steel insulated door. The price of that with tax was $954.00 and I used Angie's List discount, which was $50.00. The service was easy to arrange for. I think it's a one man company and the person seemed like an honest intelligent guy to me. The price is reasonable. I got cheaper guys, but I liked this guy and I believed in the quality of his work and his products. I didn't comparison shop so I can't rate the price. I opted to get a more expensive model garage door although I could have gotten a cheaper one. The idea of using him again was put to the test because they were separate jobs.
Description of Work: Advanced Garage Door Service replaced a circuit board in the lift master opener. They had installed a new garage door in December.

My garage door would not close and I didn't have time to deal with it, so called Advantage. Joel came out the same day, within a couple of hours. He determined that the sensors were misaligned, fixed that, then oiled the door and replaced the bulbs. Great experience, would absolutely recommend this company.

We came home Sunday evening and our garage door would not open, broken spring. I called Advanced that evening and left a message hoping I could be put earlier in line for Monday. Monday I waited until 9:30am and received no call so I had to call another company who came out later in the same day. Advanced Garage Door Service never did call back.

Call for service made Saturday, service call scheduled for Tuesday (Monday was a holiday). Repair was expected to be not unusual. Confirmed in that part replacement, re-attachment and adjustment took no more than 30 minutes. Garage door now operates better than prior to the breakage.

A tenant called us on this rental and said he could not lower garage door. We called Advanced Garage Door Service and it was nothing but a good experience. Fair price, fast response, and fix the door! And, a one year warranty on the work. Would use them again for sure.

I think this is probably the only time I have ever gotten out of a repair at less than I had feared! After I described my problem to Joe on the phone, he gave a diagnosis + estimate, and scheduled me for a service call the same day. He arrived promptly, found his diagnosis on a broken gear was spot-on, and made the repair in about 20 minutes.
Description of Work: Replaced a worn gear in the lift.

I was unable to open my garage door with the opener. I tried to lift it myself, to no avail. The owner answered the phone, I described the problem, he stated what it might be and told me he would be there within two hours. He arrived sooner, was quiet and well mannered, english speaking. the problem was exactly as he thought, a snapped spring which made it impossible to manually lift. Fixed quickly and without mess. He pointed out that I may soon need a new motorized opener as the motor was sounding "grinding" and gave me a reasonable price for that should I call him. I have had no problem with the door since. I will call him to install a new motor when the time comes.

Excellent service. Joey is extremely knowledgeable -- he immediately diagnosed the problem. He had it fixed in 20 minutes. He gave me advice on the maintenance of the door opener components. Our opener is nearing the end of its expected life. When it goes, Advanced Garage Door Svc. will install the next one.

I could not have asked for better responsiveness or better service. I would say that everyone in need of garage door service should make sure to try this company next time. You will not be disappointed.
Description of Work: Garage door spring broke on Wednesday night. I left a voice mail with Joel and by 8:30AM someone returned my call was set to come out in the next 2 hours. About 10:20 Joey arrived, changed both springs, made a few adjustments and the price was exactly $175 (with tax). He worked quickly and thoroughly, even answered a few questions I had each time I popped into the garage. Joey was very professional and gave me confidence that he knew exactly what he was doing.

I called after 5pm last night and left a voicemail asking if he could come out the next day. He returned my call an hour or two later and was able to set an appointment during the time I had requested. He quoted me $165 plus tax. The appt window was 1-3pm, and he called a bit after 1 to let me know he would be arriving closer to 3, which he did. He quickly assessed the problem and let me know it would only take about 30 minutes. He was done on time, the opener works great, he charged me what he had quoted, and everyone is happy.
Description of Work: Joel replaced both of my garage door springs. One was broken, but he said they usually fail around the same time, which makes sense, so I had him replace both.

I installed a pair of garage door openers last year but lately they have had trouble closing the doors completely. Joey came out and did a "tune-up" (my words) on the openers. Lubed the rollers and springs and pointed out other things that I could use and understand.

Called Advanced Door Service late on 4/7/10. Garage door had gone up halfway and stopped; there was only a hum. I had called another company earlier but they were 1 1/2 hrs late and had not called. Cancelled them after the office person hung up on me when I called to find out where they were and why they had not called me. Advanced Door was very responsive, said they would come out early evening if needed but there was a $45 extra charge. He asked if I had tried to manually work the door; I had not. I was able to get the door down manually and scheduled them to come the next day. I only had a 2 hr. window in between teaching my classes and they were there and fixed it, explaining everything and more. They were great!

I telephoned Joel, we set an appointment for him to look at our old garage door. He arrived on time and immediately discovered the problem with our old opener, gave us a quote on a new and better product, and scheduled installation for the next day. The next morning Tim arrived exactly as scheduled, installed the new opener, and explained its operation to us in detail.

One of our garage torsion springs broke while we were trying to open our garage door around 6:30PM. The garage door wouldn't raise so I got on Angies List and requested emergency garage door repair service companies with an A rating. I found Joel's company and I'm glad I did. I called and to my surprise he answered the phone. I explained what my problem was and he said he would come out within 2 hours and replace both torsion springs. Joel arrived around 8:15PM and replaced both torsion springs and had everything working properly by 8:45PM. I can see why Joel consistently receives such high ratings.

Joel is wonderful. We had had another company come out (one that we had used before and which has high marks here on angieslist.com) and the repairman had said we absolutely had to have a new door and a new opener. Joel knew right away on the phone that we needed a second opinion based on what we told him about what the other company had said. And he was right. We did not need a new door or a new opener, we just needed someone with the experience and wisdom to know how to repair what we had. We're are so grateful to Joel for saving us $1500!! Would highly recommend you check with Advanced Garage Door before getting any work done.
Description of Work: Gave us an estimate which was exactly how much we were charged and came back the next to fix it. Repaired garage door/opener by installing a new header bracket (the right one this time; previously someone had installed a bracket for a different brand of garage door opener than the one we have). He also adjusted and lubricated door and opener.
