My garage door started going up about 1 foot then falling back down. I disengaged it and tried to lift it manually but it wouldn't budge. I looked up and noticed that one of the springs was clearly broken. I resigned myself to missing my evening yoga class, but hoped I could free my car in time for work the next day. My neighbor gave me Dean's name. He came within an hour, replaced both springs in maybe a half hour/40 minutes and was done! I got out in time for yoga. I gave the B for price because the labor time was so short--but I don't know how much those big springs cost.
Description of Work: Replaced springs on two car garage door.

I Door works.
Description of Work: Some time you're not sure if you are getting screwed. Yesterday, garage door is stuck in down position and i can't budge it, so one car out,one car in. Lots of stuff to do next day so called this guy who had installed the door years ago, but did not ask for quote over phone(mistake). He showed up as planned early next day. Gave verbal estimate and then Installed two overhead springs with about 30 min labor, $285. Was I screwed? Not sure but I think so, but really needed the cars for a busy day.Screwed or not in San Diego

Dean installed the garage door approximately 14 years ago. Did a great job then and has provided excellent service at reasonable costs since that time. I would recommend him to anyone looking for his great service and fair prices.
Description of Work: Owner - Dean is an exceptional service provider who will come out on nights and weekends (if needed) with no extra charges and always fixes the problem.

The employees from Dlouhy Doors were extremely thorough and very helpful. I had a very complicated door to install. They spent about an hour to figure out how to do it the best way they could. They were very fast and efficient. They were very professional and well mannered. I have nothing but good things to say about them and I will definitely use them again.
Description of Work: I hired Dlouhy Doors to replace my garage door.

I told Dr. Kasiri about Angie's List and we needed to check it. I asked Dean Dlouhy if he was member, said he heard of it. I mentioned the horrible lubricating odor coming into the dental office from the garage. Dean said it was a citrus smell and shouldn't bother us. He seemed irritated I mentioned it to him, but the odor was very strong and the wind was blowing so we opened the front lobby doors to air out the place. In the afternoon after we tried to open the garage door and exit, the bracket came off the wall, was completely wobbly. Dr. Kasiri went and realigned the bracket, and put a screw in the bracket. Dean had not secured the bracket to the wall. Dr thinks it was unfair he charged him too much for simple lubricating, and he also charged him 3 times the amount to do the large garage door at his residence. He would not use him again and he is very upset. Dr Kasiri says he needs to call and apologize and refund some of his money.
Description of Work: My employer, Dr. Kasiri, called Dlouhy Doors because he did work previously for him in 2005, which was fair. He wanted him to come and fix his double garage opener which the spring had snapped. Dr. Kasiri called him on Sun, he came on Mon and looked at it, gave estimate of $600. Dr's wife called another company and they came the same day and changed both of the springs on the large garage door and they charged $200. He also made an appointment the same Sunday so he could look at the garage door opener at his office. One side of the rail brace wasn't connected to the wall and he wanted him to fix it and if the engine/motor needed to be replaced. He said the engine is okay, he would lubricate it, adjust it, and fix the bracket on one side of the wall. He charged $250 after he lubricated, and adjusted the door and he left. Dr had an appointment with someone else, got an estimate to adjust, lubricate, and change engine to 1 hp and fix bracket or any other loose screws, etc, for $350.

Excellent. Even though I did not actually do business with this company, I appreciated their honesty and their efforts to help me over the phone (They are also members of the San Diego BBB).
Description of Work: I called this company to request repair for my Chamberlain garage door opener, which wouldn't close except from the wall switch. The woman who answered the phone asked me a couple of questions about the door, and suggested I check the light beams and made sure they were parallel to the floor. She said she would gladly schedule a service call but suggested I try this first, which I did, and it worked. The garage door got "repaired" in less than a minute thanks to her suggestions.

Very professional, on time, explained everything he was doing, and very friendly. We originally called in late afternoon on the Saturday before Easter. We got a call back almost immediately, from someone (I believe Dean Dlouhy's wife, though I'm not sure) who was knowledgeable and helpful. They couldn't make it until Monday because of the Holiday, but were flexible about the time. As far as I can tell from other calls, the price was reasonable. He did try to sell us new springs and wheels as a preventive measure, which we don't think we needed, but I really don't know for sure.
Description of Work: A very heavy double, wood, sectional door had been making a lot of noise. We did not notice until too late that many of the nuts holding the hinges between the sections had come loose. We finally noticed when the hinges snapped opened and one of the sections bent. Dean Dlouhy realigned sections, lubricated, tightened bolts, put on new wheels, balanced, etc. We have a single and a double door (3 car garage), and he did both, though we only had new wheels put on the large door.
