SS White comes on time and does what they say they will do!
Description of Work: We backed through the bottom panel of our garage door and we had to remove it to get the car out. Al from SS white came at 7 AM sharp on Saturday, December 23, to fix it. I expected they would say we need a new panel, but Al fixed it with the existing materials. They are super12

One of my Raynor garage door's springs needed to be replaced. SS White came out within 48 hrs to review the work needed and subsequently came out again a week later after the parts arrived (had to be special ordered). The repair man even adjusted the price (lower) noting he needed less time to repair than originally quoted. I highly recommend them for their service (work) and customer service (nice people on the phone and in-person).

Our garage door broke over the weekend and we could not open it. I called the emergency line and the man who answered was terribly rude. His tone was forceful and he was definitely not eager to help us in any way. I hung up before even getting all the information. Being polite is essential to getting customer's business. We will be using someone else!
Description of Work: We did not select this provider because of the lack of professionalism.

I was extremely pleased with the service provided by the firm in installing my new garage door motor and system on January 28, 2016. The fellow who did it who I believe is named Bill, arrived on time at 7:00 am, did a very efficient job of installing it and allowed me to get to work on time. Bill also recalled that he had worked on this door in 1992! We have always used S.S. White since we moved in in 1988 and will do so in the future as well as recommend it to others. It speaks well of the company that they have retained such a great employee as Bill for so long.
Description of Work: Replaced a garage door motor and system and installing new system. Also identified a wire on door that was fraying and would eventually fail.

Everything went fine. S S White sends out the same technician every time I use them. As I am very deaf, I trust them enough to leave the garage door open for him to come in and do the work and he does a great job. The whole company is wonderful.

The technician (Al) arrived on time. Our Garage door had a mind of its own. There were times when the door would work properly. Then there were time when it would start to go down then it would go back up or it would go up stop then go back down. I checked the sensors (eye), cleaned them but it did not fix my problem. I then called S. S. White. Al was very knowledgeable and honest. He adjusted the force and oiled the door. I highly recommend S. S. White

Came out to provide an estimate within a couple of days of 1st contact by telephone. The estimator was also the technician who would later perform the installation and not just a salesperson. He knew exactly what to measure and how the products being sold actually worked. We decided on a door model, style, and color after which the estimator took detailed measurements. He noted the garage floor at the door was not perfectly level which might affect the weatherproofing. (In the end, it did not, but we appreciated the heads-up.) We provided a deposit and waited for the door to be built and delivered by the manufacturer. (They are custom-built based on the measurements.) I had not heard anything after approximately two months and called S.S. White's office. Turns out the doors had come in. The person on the phone apologized and we were scheduled for installation within 2 weeks. The installer arrived as expected (about 6:45am - he starts EARLY!). Surprisingly, only this one person completely disassembled our old door and installed the new one - including new tracks, opener, and sensors - in a little under 6 hours, which was exactly how much time he had estimated. He took his time to explain the door's operation (simple) as well as the maintenance procedures which would help ensure a long life. The door has operated flawlessly and looks GREAT. It is painted steel (with insulation) and requires minimal maintenance, unlike the old wooden door which was definitely showing its age. Overall, we are very happy with S.S. White and would use them again.
Description of Work: Replaced a 30+ year old wooden two-car garage door plus opener. (We found out later the original door had also been installed by S.S. White.)

He was knowledgable and Honest. I had called other places but they all immediately wanted to sell me a new garage door opener. I suspected that once they came out to look things over there would be a service fee which would be waived if a brought the garage door opener and I would then buy what I didn't need. I liked my service man and will use SS White from now on!!

Ordered new door approximately 6 weeks ago. Installation was exactly as described with new tracks, rollers and trim. New door works perfectly and is much lighter and quieter than old one. Installation time was about 6 hours including take down of old and install of new.

Original garage door opener malfunctioning on 25+ year old house. SS White was assigned to review situation by home warranty company. Repairman came on time and found that opener needed replacement. Also identified the fact that the opener had been improperly installed originally and that it was breaking the garage door and letting cold air in from the outside. Told me what kind of braces to buy at home depot to fix the problem and stabilize the door and installed them at time of new installation of opener at no extra charge. All in all very good service. I am very satisfied. Note that price was my price including deductible and cost of outside key pad. The rest was paid by the home warranty company.

Cable to our auto garage door snapped. Having been in our home only 2 years we did not know who to call. SS White installed the current door, however the previous owner installed the door opener. Called for service, they arrived first thing the next morning. Repair and adjustments were complete within 30 minutes. Technician was very knowledgeable and informative!! Door looks and sounds better than it ever has. Will call SS White anytime we need repairs in the future!!

They gave me the first available appointment which was one week away. I was able to leave the garage door unlocked so they could do the work and I didn't have to take off work to be there. They came when they said they would and did the repairs as agreed. I have used them for at least 15 years for both repairs and new garage doors. They have always been responsive, prompt and professional.

Service was great, I would use them again. Initially called to replace some old rusty/warped extension springs on garage door. The springs had to be special ordered, so on the first visit, he took the spring measurements and also repaired a damaged pulley. After the springs came in, he returned to install them as well as some safety cables, tightened all the nuts, and oiled everything down. Called again after about a month since we were having some issues with getting the door closed several times. He promptly returned, pointed out the laser was being tripped by some stray leaf caught on the base of the door. Quick and simple fix, no charge for this followup visit.
