One of our garage doors would only open about 3' then stop. I tried my best to fix it, but had no luck. I found S&S here on Angie's, gave them a call and left a message. Gary called back the same day. He game out a couple of days later and adjusted some of the wheels/rollers (whatever they're called) and lubricated things. He left the bill and was on his way. All this was done without us having to be there which was fantastic! All-in-all it was one of the easiest home repair experiences I've had. No fuss, and excellent results!

Was able to arrange for service very quickly on a cold winter day. The repair was quick, efficient and less expensive than we thought it would be.

Gary is an affable man who got back to me right away, arrived at the time we agreed upon, quickly assessed the problem, replaced a part, left within 15 minutes and the price was right. Can't beat S&S Overhead Door.

When Gary initially came out to give a quote on replacing the doors, he freely helped troubleshoot some problems with door operations and he was also very down to earth and prompt with price quotes. Gary was very professional and did a great job of communicating what was needed, and promptly installing the doors once we ordered. Very pleased throughout.

This company is great! They came out the day after we called and had the job fixed within a half hour. This was especially nice of them to do (so fast) since the door couldn't open and it was for our elderly father. Very happy with their services!

Quick visit, total satisfaction, excellent price, would strongly recommend Gary to anyone in the area.
Description of Work: Gary came the day after we called. He installed a new key pad next to the kitchen door, and also diagnosed a new universal remote that I bought separately. It raised and lowered one door, but would not code for the other, although the door opener itself operated properly.

It went great! Gary was responsive, came out the day after I called to provide an estimate, he then ordered the door and a few days later installed it. The door looks great! Gary installed it while I was at work which made it very convenient. I would highly recommend Gary.

Gary was great. We had a very old garage door mechanism (20+ years). He came out a few years and adjusted the motor for free. When we recently had another issue with the door, we called him. He returned my call right away and came out the next day. He diagnosed the problem. We discussed a few options and their respective pricing -- he could fix the problem or we could put in a new mechanism. It was more cost effective to put in a new mechanism, which he did. All in all, it was a great experience. He was knowledgeable, prompt, and very nice. I would highly recommend him.

A!!! Very courteous and reliable. He had to call many times to reach me and was always pleasant and informative. Kept me up to date on the progress of the project. He had to deal with a blown fuse and resourcefully sought the aide of a neighbor rather than abandon the job. Came back at a later date when I had trouble (my fault, it turned out) with the door. Didn't charge me for extra visit.

I called and got the owner, Gary, who came out to repair a broken safety cable and spring on my electric garage door. He knew exactly what it was from my description over the phone and did the job for the initial quote. Door works fine and I'll use him again for any other garage door issues.

Our automatic garage door was making a loud noise and "catching" every time it closed. We called Gary and he came right over the next day. He fixed the problem and performed standard servicing: oiled both doors, tightened some bolts, and both doors now open and close nearly silently.

We originally thought we were going to need to replace both doors and hardware from the ground up; a job that was going to cost several thousand dollars. Other contractors were ready to replace everything sight unseen. Gary came over and insisted that we only needed to replace one motor and limited hardware for a total cost of $500.00. Seeing how much money he was saving us I insisted back that we should replace both motors and call it a day. He was prompt and reliable and a nice upbeat person to deal with. GREAT JOB!
Description of Work: Gary replaced two garage door motors and associated various hardware and electronics, added an exterior keypad, lubricated many parts.

He showed up on time, was very efficient and extremely reasonable in price for all of the problems he found and fixed. Our doors worked much better, are stable and safe, hang straight and don't squeak.
Description of Work: Garage door would not go up. He came out and discovered why (owner error), but also found some serious flaws in both garage doors that could have been potentially dangerous. One door did not have any springs pulling it up at all, and the other door's opener was hanging on, crookedly, by 1 screw. Both had always made a terrible noise when opening/closing, even after oiling them.
