They did a good job and it seems fine. There's a little confusion of getting back to us because the website told us that they will get a hold of us but that's not what they understood.
Description of Work: We needed a spring. They just found something that's needed to be replaced.

Terrible. the last straw was when the tech came out and told me they were more expensive because they were a better company, and I quote, "not like *&*$&." I wont mention the company he said as that is very unprofessional. Needless to say I called almost all the other angies list recommended contractors and ALL of them were half the price of the original estimate I was given.
Description of Work: I requested an estimate to replace my garage door torsion springs. The woman who answered the phone was very nice, and they were able to get my in for a same day appointment. The tech came out and I do have to say he was very nice. However the whole process was very unsettling. I informed the tech that I just wanted to make the door operational. I didn't care about any upgrades or anything. I had an idea of what a fair price was from past work done. 200-250 to replace the 2 torsion springs is fair. He was quoting me over 520ish plus tax for the two. I told him, that that was way more than an acceptable price and he said that that was a high end spring. I once again reminded him that I just wanted the door to work. I didn't need a 40 year warranty. Then the price magically went to about 400 plus tax. I told him again, that was almost double what I know a family member paid to get them fixed. He then said let me see what I can do, and no miraculously the price was 320 plus tax. I have no patience for slimy sales tricks and "higher end springs." As someone who was once in sales this is exactly the stigma which made me leave sales. I told him that I was going to get more estimates and I would hold off, and he told me he then had to charge me for a service call. I asked how much was that, and he said $69. $69 dollars to come out to my house and try to rip me off. I told the woman who answered the phone I needed an estimate and I refused to to pay any service call. He of course waived the fee, its pretty remarkable how these "mandatory" fees are able to disappear at will.

Response from Precision Door Service
If you read our Angie's List page you can see we carry better parts. You were quoted $320 to place the springs. What your neighbor, friend, cousin, brother, father or whoever paid is irrelevant. All springs are different sizes and quality. If you want to buy crap we can help you, but I encourage you to use our uninsured competitors who focus on poor quality, low wage untrained employees.

Very pleased with Ryan Buil, the installer. He was delayed due to previous job before mine but he called twice and kept me abreast of his arrival time. Delay was only 40 min. and not excessive for my daily plans. Asked about new replacement of both doors due to age of garages (~30-40 yrs.) and cost of repairs. Cost effective to consider NEW garage doors for the price, improved energy efficiency rating (9.1); steel vs. plastic doors; color coordinated doors to match exterior. These were all potential pluses and worth the investment as home upgrades that will last for years to come. I plan to purchase new doors by late Summer or early Fall. I highly recommend Precision Door Service of Buffalo to anyone requiring PM and/ or garage door repair service. Be sure you ask for Ryan Buil. He was extremely knowledgeable, focused and efficient in his work performance. He even took the old rollers for disposal. It was a pleasant experience from service to repair to diagnostics and sales. Looking forward to my new garage doors with Lifetime warranty on parts and labor. It's a win-win situation! Thank you, Angis's a List, for an A+ recommendation! I'm glad I renewed my membership for 3 yrs. Angie DiLoro

He pulled-out a sample set of demo panels that match the existing ones perfectly even though they're 12 years old. He then provided a proposal and insurance just sent us reimbursement. Unless something comes-up I will probably be calling them to provide the work.

It went really well! They fixed the problem that I had, which was a very loud and questionable lift motor on my double garage door. They were very punctual, knowledgeable, and I'd highly recommend them. The price was reasonable and I was satisfied with the quality of the work. I was very happy with the tips they gave me, too, which will probably save me money in the future.

This is a good company and you should not hesitate to work with them if they are offering a product or service that you require. The cable connecting the spring system to my garage door broke, leaving the door askew and partially open on one side. My first concern was to get the door closed (I had the cars out of it, fortunately). I called two companies that are well reviewed on Angie's list, one of them Precision Door. I liked both representatives, and the other company quoted a lower price and at first I was inclined to go with them. However when the Precision rep came out, he was able to get my door closed (no charge), so I felt I should hire them for the fix/replacement. The rep also pointed out that they used coated springs and generally high-quality hardware that helps to justify the price difference (perhaps that's true; I didn't get this kind of detail from the rep of the first company). Wanting to get it moving, I signed an order for a door (the rep thought I might be able to get by with just a repair to the cable, but the tracks had become misaligned and the door sustained minor damage, so I wanted to get it replaced. The point here being that he didn't pressure me toward getting a replacement). The new door would be double sided and insulated, which was a big step up in quality from my original door. After placing the order I looked more carefully at the brochure, and found that the door wasn't quite the model I had expected, but instead had a lower level of insulation (polystyrene instead of blown-in polyurethane). They didn?t represent it falsely, it was just an honest miscommunication. But when I was comparing price I was thinking it was polyurethane, and I preferred that, so I was disappointed. Moreover the type of insulation I wanted wasn?t offered in their brochures, so I decided I couldn?t get a door from them. I called the company to exercise my option to cancel within a day or so after signing the order. I communicated this to a staff person, and shortly thereafter they went ahead an canceled the charge on my card, no questions asked. I wanted to explain to the owner my reason for doing this, so I called to let him know it wasn?t due to any problem with the company, but that they just weren?t offering the type of door I wanted. He said that they happened to have just negotiated with the manufacturer to start providing the polyurethane-insulated door, and it was too bad that I hadn?t known that (thinking I had moved on to another company, but I hadn't by then). The price was higher, but he was agreeable to reducing it to make it competitive with the other prices I was quoted. I was satisfied with that deal, and was happy to enter in a new order with them. Later I called to make a small change in the order (choosing a new window style) and they were ok with that. After a couple weeks the door was ready and they came out to install it. Two technicians did the job, which took about 5 hours. They were very friendly and the job went smoothly. The next day I had a question about the way the door was operating, and another technician came out and made some small adjustments and answered my questions. Again, very friendly and easy to work with. The door has been working great and I'm quite happy with it. Overall working with the management and the technicians from the company was a good experience. They are honest and do quality work.

There were no observed issues with making the new door operate smoothly and efficiently. There was no wasted time once the installers came on site. It was obvious that they perform this type of work everyday and are very well versed in the proper installation procedures. Once the weatherstrips were installed on the outside of the frame the job looked very neat. The installers hauled away my old door and cleaned up the garage at completion of the work. I am very satisfied with the investment. The owner of Precision Door Service emailed a link to a YouTube video that showed how criminals can break into overhead garage doors with motor driven openers with only a bent coat hanger. At first I was shocked that this type of video was on the Internet, but then realized that the criminal element in society already know about this trick and at least the video is useful to the general public for theft prevention. I had removed the manual release cord from my garage door opener when my nieghbor's snow thrower was stolen from his garage. Now, I shortened the metal lever that manually releases the garage door opener so that a coat hanger can't hook it and release the tension on the door that keeps it closed from the outside. Now a criminal would have to smash the door to get my snowblower rather than just using a coat hanger.
Description of Work: Came out to measure for a replacement overhead garage door on February 14, 2014. Once the door was available the office called to set up an installation date, which became March 7th. The two man crew arrived within the allotted time frame and immediately began removing the existing wooden overhead garage door and rails. Then they laid out the new door sections and began the installation of the new steel door. They were very professional and serious about the installation and everything went according to plan. After the door was in place and the spring system adjusted for proper tension, they attached the door to my existing Genie door opener and adjusted the opener to accommodate the lighter weight of the steel door over the old wooden one. The whole process took just about three hours of steady work on the part of both installers.

Replaced old garage doors with brand new ones. The installation is still pending, but the interaction with the company has been great. They responded to my initial inquiry within 24 hours and came out within a few days. After we placed the order, they worked with us on the pricing. Installation is scheduled for next week.
Description of Work: We moved into a new home last year and was just getting around to address the garage doors. They were older doors, but still operable. I called them out to look at the rollers and ultimately chose to replace both garage doors. They worked with us on the price and were very courteous and professional.

We just purchased the house and, during inspection, we noted that the garage door opener had no floor sensors and was quite old. We scheduled to have a quote done for a new opener, also planning to have them look at the rollers, etc. They were scheduled to show up between 1PM and 5PM. They called at 1230PM and said they would arrive at 1PM. They were right on time. They quickly assessed the situation with our garage. Several options were available for the opener, all costing within the ball park of my expectations. After I asked them to examine the rollers and so forth, Ryan pointed out the wear and tear and I asked what options they had. At no point did I feel like he was pushy. I ended up going with their "rebuild" package which replaced the rollers, cables, springs, and some other hardware. The opener was roughly $600 and the "rebuild" was roughly $700, which included all parts and labor. The work took them about 3 hours. They worked quickly and clearly were experienced. They were very friendly and polite. I would highly recommend this company for garage door work.

Dear customer, it confuses me that you rated our responsiveness and professionalism an "F" considering we showed up within an hour of your call and as you stated "it was one of the coldest day of the year" Now I know we are not the cheapest company, but the $300 for what you had done is a competitive price in this industry. Perhaps. I have a question for you. How much do you think it costs to send two technicians in a fully stocked truck to your house? With travel lets say that used 3 hours of our time. Would you expect an auto mechanic to charge you less than $300 for that much time, even considering he isn't coming to your home?

My garage door failed to lift this morning. Checked it out and found a broken spring. Called Precision based on the reviews from other members. Within an hour a service tech called and told me when to expect him. Service tech replaced springs and lubricated hinges and rollers. I declined other maintenance work because I intend to replace the door within the next three to five years. When I do replace it I will call Precision. I want to note that the day service was done was when the snow was blowing and it was generally a cruddy day. I am very happy with how fast Precision was able to accommodate me so I could get my car out of the garage and get to work.

I purchased a big deal from Angie's List and their services worked out fine. They had a special where they come out and adjust the door, and they did that. They were very courteous and very satisfactory. I did not have any problems scheduling. They were very prompt. They came out and they performed what they had indicated. We are very satisfied. They charged me what they said they were going to charge. They were very professional. Their quality was good. I have no complaints at all with them.
