The spring on our center garage door snapped and we were without use of the door for a few days (in increasingly cold weather). We searched through Angie's List and came upon Crystal Overhead Door. Their many positive reviews made them an easy choice. I called and left a message with my details and received a prompt callback from Rick. He arranged to have someone come out and repair the door. I also spoke with Linda the day of the appointment. She was very helpful in verifying that all was on track and gave me an accurate assessment as to when to expect the technician (Mike). Mike called to let me know he was on the way, and even though he was fighting his way through a snowstorm, he arrived promptly and did a great job. Mike is professional, friendly and he even guided us as to which coupon to use, which saved us $40 off the $180. We would definitely use them again as well as recommend them to others. Great job!

It went well and the people were pretty decent. The installer was very good and the people were nice. I don't have any complaints. I would not probably use them again because we had a disagreement but that's okay because they did their job.

My garage door stopped working one evening. After checking Angie's List I called Crystal Overhead Door first thing the next morning. I was told that a repair person would be out between noon and 4:00. Mike called to let me know when he was on his way and he arrived around 1:00. He knew right away that the door needed a new gear and sprocket assembly. He completed the work in about 30 minutes, and the garage door works fine again. I'm happy with the work that Mike did and I'm pleased that they were able to come out the same day I called. I will definitely use this company again.

They came out the next day after my call. Honored the 50% off Service Call deal, which I got here on Angie's List. The service representative was knowledgeable and answered all my questions. He replaced the broken parts and gave our door a general tune-up. Everything was back in functional working condition in about 20 minutes.

The springs are broken on our door along with the rod needing to be replaced. The technician was very helpful stating the cost for everything and showing me other things that need to be serviced. He gave me an itemized list of what it would cost and told me it might be better to get a new door. He also said he could fix this all, but was very honest letting me know that it may break again due to the age of the door. Excellent service. Honest and we will use them again.

Response from Crystal Overhead Door Inc
It is a great value. We get price shopped all the time and sometimes loose work because some customers don't understand that value is more than just the "least expensive prices". We install high cycle springs. What is a high cycle spring, you might ask. The industry standard for torsion springs (which are the type mounted over the top of your door on a pipe or torsion shaft) is 10,000 cycles. Our springs are usually 20-30,000 cycles sometimes more. We are a better value than some other companies because you don't have to deal with springs that may only last a few years. The net result from using another company is a lot more expensive and a lot more inconvenience. You won't find a better value than from Crystal Overhead Door. Thank you for your business and review. We appreciate it.

Everything went smoothly, and they were very service- and customer-oriented. They thought that there was a chance that we would just need to replace the circuit breaker for our original garage door opener (which would be much less expensive) and tried this first before confirming that the entire garage door opener needed to be replaced.

Thank you for the review. I am not posting this info to be contradictory. I just don't want other potential clients to be scared of an 800.00 dollar price tag for a garage door opener. We installed springs on an emergency call as well as an opener install on a follow up visit after the circuit board replacement didn't work. Thank you again, we look forward to seeing you next time.

Fixed the spring but did not repair the plastic cog wheel that moves with the motor opener. Suggested a new motor and chain system due to the age of the unit. I personally replaced the plastic cogs and related assemblage myself after purchasing parts from a garage door service. I felt this could have been done on the spot instead of the sales pitch for new motor and installation charges. Good service overall yet I wound up opening the door manually for a month before I could find the time to do it myself.

Just a reminder. Your new garage door is like a vehicle, it needs maintenance like your car needs oil changes. The moving parts need lubricating and fasteners need tightening. It should be done before the winter sets in. We have maintenance packages available if you are not able to do this on your own. Thank you for the review!

Last week, my garage door came apart from the middle arm mechanism (not sure what that's called). I could only manually open and close it, which was a big pain!. Over the weekend, I called Crystal Overhead Inc. in a serious panic and they promptly called me the next business day. Within hours Tom was at my house. Tom is seriously one of the nicest servicemen I've ever had at my house. He took the time to explain everything wrong with my garage door and even educated me on how to maintain it. He was very friendly and very quick. He fixed my problem in under an hour and my garage door is as good as knew. This company is extremely reliable. I had such a positive experience I will only use them from now on and recommend them to all my friends! Thanks guys!

Exceeded my expectations. Will be sure to use them again in the future. I was going to use a local guy who fixed the door before but with the Angies List coupon I couldn't say no to calling Crystal. This is my second time using them. The first time they assembled my automatic door system in my main home. I will use them again in the future.
Description of Work: My garage door on my 3 flat rental home coil spool was a mess and the door wouldn't close. In Humboldt Park this is a problem. They called me 30 minutes prior to arriving as agreed, I met them there, they fixed it in 10 minutes and that was about it.

I am sorry if you feel you were over charged. Sometimes the technician might not have explained enough to your understanding. On record we received $120 and the break down includes: $49.99 Angie's list includes a 21 point inspection and lubing all moving parts. Replacing broken springs to have door function correctly would prevent stress on other parts and breakage in the future. The cost of the additional parts needed is not included, of which springs can range from $35 to $100 each depending on mechanical variables. Customer was charged $70.00 for 2 springs. The technician should have explained all of this and we do apologize if there was any miscommunication in servicing you.

The job went very well. I asked for the weather stripping replacement at the last minute, when the technician thought he was all finished, but he very kindly completed the task for me anyway.
Description of Work: We purchased a Big Deal for Crystal Overhead Door, but asked for additional services. We had Crystal iinstall a new outdoor keypad (great for kids to come and go without a key to lose), new weather stripping along the bottom of our double garage door, and a new opener unit for the door. Also, our door wasn't closing when the temperature was very low, and our technician fixed that problem. He may have performed other lubrication and/or tune-up services, but it was a while ago, and I don't remember exactly what the Big Deal included.

The contractor was incredibly responsive, right on time, and fixed our problem immediately. I expected to have to get an appointment to get a quote, get service some days from now, and then have a a sizable bill for the repairs. Rather the serviceman was at my house within 1.5 hours of my call, saw that I had a simple problem he could fix in about 3 minutes, and did not charge me for the visit. Incredibly nice people too.

I called Crystal Overhead Door after about 6 weeks of trouble with my existing opener, which would go up, but not down. The technician Tom called 15 minutes before he arrived. He rolled up, spent about 5 minutes inspecting the problematic door opener and explained that the worn out motor on my low-end retail unit was not worth fixing. He did a great job of explaining the overall door and system and how to perform preventive maintenance, etc. I elected to have him install a new Liftmaster unit, with new safety eyes, etc. The whole thing took about 90 minutes. I probably could have saved a few bucks by going to Home Depot and then hiring a service company to install, but based on other Angie's List reviews, I felt it was worth it to have it done by people who specialize in this type of thing. I would recommend Tom to anyone, and I would recommend Crystal Overhead Door to anyone. Very professional, seamless service -- and they spend time with you so you understand how not to encounter problems again.
