Description of Work: On New Years Eve with a lot going on our garage door opener stopped working. I realized one of the springs on the door was broken. I picked Atkins from the phone book based on a number of reviews and left a message. They called back within the hour. I explained the problem. They apologized that they wouldn't be able to get there immediately and gave me a time in the afternoon. They came as promised, suggested replacing both springs since they were both similarly aged. I agreed. They took care of the problem and left a happy customer.

Excellent service. Highly recommended - see services performed for more detail.
Description of Work: Garage door at my home would stop and start working off and on and became really frustrating. Atkins came out and looked at the door, the motor, etc. and said he could not fix it and there was no charge. He said that the motor was bad and to contact the manufacturer. He even tried talking to the manufacturer and they were impossible to work with (Genie). He gave a few options for replacement and took care of the replacement and installation. I have nothing but positive things to say - polite, clean, professional, hard working, and honest. I would recommend this company highly to anyone looking for garage door work/repair/replacement. Wish all contractors were so easy to work with!

The garage door at my daughter's house came completely out of the tracks and was laying half-suspended on shelves in the garage. Of course, this happened on Memorial Day and I called a couple companies out of the yellow pages but didn't hear back from them. I called a guy who had worked on my door before and he referred me to Atkins. I called him and left a voicemail at 5:30 in the evening and he called me back 15 minutes later and told me he could be there at 6:15 to try and get it fixed. He arrived at 6:15 as stated and my daughter said he was very polite, as he was on the phone, and took the whole door apart and reassembled it and was done in about 90 minutes. My daughter said it operates much smoother than it ever did before. We really appreciate James being willing to come out in the evening on a Holiday, as well as being courteous and professional. He charged $75 which I thought was extremely reasonable for the job. I will not touch a garage door, as I don't know what I'm doing with the springs, adjustment, etc. It's nice to have a reliable company to call who won't rake you over the coals when it comes to pricing!
Description of Work: The garage door was completely off of the tracks on both sides and needed to be put back on the tracks as well as have the springs adjusted.

The owner/ worker came to my home the same day I called, provided a written estimate which was lower than his competitors, then returned at the exact time and date he said he would and installed the new garage door and removed the old one. He was pleasant, neat and clean, and everything happened as I hoped it would. I could not have been more satisfied.
Description of Work: Installed replacement garage door.

One of the torsion springs broke on my garage door. Some garage doors have one, mine has two. They are the large springs at the top of the door that allow the garage door opener to easily lift and close the garage door. When one or both of these break, the weight of the door is too much for the opener to lift the door. I checked on Angie's list before I called a company because I heard from a neighbor that had been charged too much for a similar repair. I called 2 of the companies listed and was impressed after Jim Atkins returned my call. He is pretty much a 1-man show so you may have to leave a message for him but it will be well worth your while. Jim promptly called me back and set an appointment for the next day. He was genuinely concerned if my car was trapped in the garage (it was not) and said he would have come the same day. Jim showed up as promised and quickly fixed my problem. I had him change both springs (only 1 was broken) since they were old. He have me a discount for the 2nd spring - $75 for one spring or $130 for both. Jim was very professional, repaired my garage door quickly, and then took a lot of time to lubricate and adjust the overall operation of my garage door, all at no extra charge. I highly recommend Atkins Garage Doors and will definitley use them again if the need should arise.
Description of Work: Replaced the 2 torsion springs on my garage door which required removing the old broken springs, installing the new springs, and adjusting overall operation of my garage door.

After a big lightning hit a few days ago several electronic things stopped working, including the garage door remote controls. Our garage door and opener are fairly new and I would have called the original inataller, but they were out of business. I called Atkins based on his rating here and he said he would be out the next afternoon. He came as promised, fixed the problem, and charged only $35 for a service call. He did not attempt to sell me something I didn't need. He simply fixed the problem quickly and professionally, charged a reasonable fee, and left. I couldn't be happier.
Description of Work: Reprogrammed remote controls.

Excellent! We could not have been more pleased!
Description of Work: We had the most pleasant experience with James Atkins; professional, informative and loves to leave customers happy. See our report card on Precision garage doors of Daytona Beach for the exact OPPOSITE experience. Atkins saved us from the mistakes Precision made. Only complaint is that he tends to be 20-30 minutes late.

He did a great job. He does his own work. He said that he didn't really do that much for me when he came out so he charged me a very low price for his services.
Description of Work: My garage door would not work. I called Adkins Garage Doors and a gentleman came out. He checked the system and determined that it had locked itself out and he reset the system. He also oiled the wheels and springs.
