I made an appointment for 9:30 am. The property address is a rental property. I was there from 9:00 am until 10:00 am. No one came. I called their main number and was told that they usually give a window time frame. But they had given me a definite time and I could not wait any longer. Therefore, I informed them that I was leaving.
Description of Work: Nothing - they did not keep the appointment.

I contacted Richard Cruz of American Doors concerning the problem that i was having with my garage door,and Richard responded in a very timely manner.Upon arrival Richard determined the cause of the problem,and was able to make the necessary repairs in a timely manner.Richard also suggested and performed some preventive maintenance for the chain mechanism which has made for a much better performance of the garage door.I found Richard to be a very professional,and pleasant,and would highly recommend American Doors.
Description of Work: I had a problem with my garage door not seating properly when the door closed,subsequently causing the door to raise once the door made contact with the ground.Also a metal piece of the frame has detached from the wood frame of the garage,causing the door to be unabled to be raised.

The service turned out pretty good, I had a tiny problem, which they resolved, they did a nice, professional job. They were on time and courteous. They did what they said they were going to do, they had to another service while they were out here, and they were equipped to do that, and I would say that it was a positive experience and I would use them again. I had purchased a big deal for the service. The price was very good. They were right here when they said they would be.

Additional services were added. During the conversation prices quoted to me were not in addition to the already prepaid cost, but would bring the total cost to what was quoted. As a result an additional $300 was collected when my understanding was that it would be approximately an additional $150 added to the prepaid amount already collected. When I phoned in my complaint to the office I was not satisfied with the conversation, professionalism nor the results. I can't remember the exact date, if that is critical I can search for the receipt an update that information later. I hesitated in giving a evaluation for some time due to the fact that it was not a good experience. The quality of the work was good, but feeling like I was taken advantage of was a horrible experience.
Description of Work: Fixed the garage door sealing at the bottom and tightened screws on the door , additional work sealed the door on the sides by adding rubber so no light or visible outdoor exposure was present.

Richard was a profession, from his demeanor to his work. I liked the way he showed me exactly the trouble with the parts that he had to replace.
Description of Work: He replaced two beams, lube on opener gear, sprayed WD 40 on all needed surfaces, fixed light on opener motor, and replaced one of the car openers, checked that all was working fine. He also gave info on proper upkeep.

Did the work I had already paid for with one of the specials....pointed out 2 other problems with my door..I had the repairs done but later thought I should have gotten another estimate as he charged an additional $220 for work that only took an additional 1/2 hour and a few small parts.

Response from American Doors LLC
The opener rail bracket was barely attached to the drywall and it was moving around. The original opener rail bracket was replaced with a larger one to handle the regular usage of the door and to keep it from coming loose from the wall. The garage door bracket was ripping away from the door. It was replaced with a full piece garage door bracket, one that goes from the top of the door to the bottom hinge. The outer garage door opener trolly had a rip of about an inch. The inner garage door opener trolly was completely worn on the right side. Both needed to be replaced in order to be able to ever use your emergency release to the opener. Without the trolly being repaired, if the emergency release were to be used, it would never be able to get reconnected for the opener to be used again. Since the opener was older, an inspection was completed on the gear for the opener and greased it. The repairs were explained with pricing prior to completing the work. Our company does not complete any job without approval from the customer. The following items, Garage door opener bracket, garage door bracket and inside and outside garage door trolly, inspection and greasing of opener gear were the additional items repaired. If you get a written quote for those additional items with labor at a better price than what was charged, American Doors will refund the difference.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It worked out fine. I would recommend them because the guy did a good job. He was friendly. I was happy with him. I don't have any comparison for the price but I was willing to pay what he had offered.
Description of Work: The purchase that I made which was $80 for the refurbishing, American Doors didn't do what I probably needed done but by getting them out, it helped because the spring was actually busted so he had to actually replace that. So I paid an additional amount aside from the deal.

It was an Angie's List Big Deal that I purchased. It was okay. He didn't come back though. He was supposed to give us an extra piece for the garage so the mice can't get in but that would have been an extra fee. I hope that guy is okay, he never bothered with us again. It's kind of hard for me to evaluate because I didn't know he placed them like that but seeing that he had to come to the house and do the work, I'd give him an A. I would consider hiring him again but he didn't get back to me and I don't know what happened.
Description of Work: I used American Doors because the garage door wasn't working properly. He got that working properly and put the keypad in.

The gentleman who answered the phone was really curteous and quite helpful and had my husband not chosen to go to another provider I would have most certainly used this company. His pricing was EXCELLENT (which I don't recall, but I do remember he was the most economical out of three company's contacted) and his availabilty was even better - he would have been able to install a garage opener the next day.

I contacted Rich due to great reviews on this list. I had two garage doors one of which stopped working altogether last year and the other would not stay closed while closing. He came out 4 days later on the agreed date and time. Not knowing what was wrong at all was a little scary for me as he could have charged me for unnecessary work or parts. He worked for two hours and was very thorough. Both doors have been working quieter and without incident for the last 3 weeks. I found his charges to be very fair and highly reccommend Rich to anyone who would like prompt, reasonable service on their garage doors.

This was the first time using them. I think he was just a middle of the road guy. Nothing I liked, nothing I disliked about them. He came out and did his job best I can recall. No issues.
Description of Work: I used a big deal purchase for American Doors. I think he put in some ball bearings, some coasters, and replaced one of the springs or one of the cables. He put insulation on the bottom of the door.

It went fine. He came and did the work and left, I didn't actually see him, but the door seems to be OK. He called me to arrange, and he said he was coming the next day and he did. He was punctual and he arrived when he said he would and actually I think he was a little earlier than he said he would. He seems to have done a good job.

The installer arrived on time and did not waste any time installing the new entry pad. Upon completion, he provided instructions on how to set up my code and walked me through the entire process. I asked whether he could provide a garage door opener and he was able to do so quickly and easily. He also gave me some tips on keeping my garage door working properly, suggesting that I spray the springs annually to keep them in good shape. Overall, things went very smoothly.
Description of Work: I purchased a coupon for $99 to have a keyless garage door opener installed. While he was there, the installer was also able to set up a new garage door opener for me. When I bought my new house, there was only one opener included. They only charged $55, which was very reasonable.

He came out and told me right away that he wouldn't be able to fix the problem, which was water coming in when it rains due to the floor pitch going down. He did stay and check a few things though, and fixed a few other things to make the big issue less of one. He was polite and courteous.

I took advantage of an Angies's list special. It called for a complete inspection of the system, a gear greasing and roller replacement if needed. Rich did much more, and the garage doors work perfectly. The additional cost was quite reasonable considering all he did. He was prompt, courteous and extremely professional. I plan to call him again if the need arises. I would highly recommend Rich and American Doors, Inc.
Description of Work: Rich inspected my garage doors and diagnosed several problems with the operation of my system. They were noisy, vibrated far too much and were out of alignment due to settling of the house over the years. He explained the problems to me and proceeded to walk me through needed repairs. He realigned one of the doors by moving the track slightly, he replaced the rubber seal on the bottom of the door, he eliminated the major squeaks in the system, and minimized the vibration. In addition, he inspected the garage door openers and was able to correct the problem I had with the light bulbs going out too frequently. He showed me how to do routine maintenance on the door springs and rollers if and when the squeak returns.

They contacted me and set up an appointment at my convenience. He showed up at the end of but within the 2 hour window that was promised. The garage door dates from 1995 and has never been professionally serviced. This guy is very knowledgeable. He did a thorough inspection and performed routine maintenance. He showed me everything he did, explained why he did it and what I should do in the future. I would definitely recommend him and would call again for anything I need done related to my garage door.

Rich was extremely punctual, professional, and friendly. The work was done quickly and well. I'm the type of person who likes to stand around and watch the service professionals I hire. Rich didn't seem to have a problem with that at all and almost seemed to welcome it. The only thing Rich did that I didn't agree with was using his teeth to strip some wires, but he assured me he had a good dentist. Overall great job. Opener works great. Rich not only took the time to explain thoroughly how the opener works with dos and don'ts, he also gave advice on maintenance and care of the overall garage door system.
