It went very very bad. 1. They can't give you an appointment time. They give you an 4-hour window. They call you on the same day that your "appointment" is, and tell you that the appointment is cancelled because the agent who answered the call yesterday is not qualified to give the schedule time. 2. It is stated on their website "FREE Quotation". Wanted a $200 deposit for them to come and confirm the dimension of the doors that we want to order. 3. They tell you to take the business somewhere else, because they are "Christie Overhead Door" and they have plenty of business.

Sorry for your experience, and I too would have been furious had I made the same mistake you did Please be assured that we give ALL customers a free estimate as we did you. You were given a (2) hour window that I personally arrived within. I met with your wife and even referred her to a contractor for work that was out of our scope. The deposit was to move forward with your job installation, your wife asked us to come and show with your contractor what to do but was still not willing to move forward with the job. With all due respect we don't make several trips to a customers house with out a commitment nor do we use our resources to lay out a project for other contractors again without a commitment. We only declined the job after you were unable to move forward at the time you needed to. As you see the now the terrible mistake that your contractor made and you have to live with, could have been avoided had you moved forward with the job and we could have directed him to build your garage opening properly This is a perfect example of how not to "GC" a job on your own Respectfully yours; Andrew

We have no problem with the price, nor quality of the materials or workmanship. The reasons we lowered the grade are as follows: 1. We were told when we received the original estimate that the work would be performed in about 3 weeks from that date. It actually took over a month to get the appt. and we were never given an explanation nor an apology for the delay. 2. There was a relatively simple question regarding whether or not we were entitled to a discount through Angie's List that could have been resolved in one phone call. Instead, it took four phone calls over the period of a week to get resolved. 3. This is the main and most serious issue. When the appointment was scheduled and confirmed, we were told that the technician would be arriving between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM. When he hadn't shown up by 1:00, my wife, who had been waiting all morning for him, had to call the company to find out what what happening. She was told that the technician was having a problem with his first job, and it was taking longer than anticipated. The appointment was rescheduled two more times later that day, and each time when the technician had not showed up within the time frame, it was my wife who AGAIN had to call the company to find out what was happening. By this time, it would now be well after 3:00 before the technician would even get to our house, and since we were told that it could take 5 hours or even longer to complete, it seemed obvious to us that the job would have to be rescheduled for another day. However, it was only after a rather vehement protest on our part, were we able to get the company to agree to reschedule.

Dear Valued Customer, Thank you for taking the time out to give an honest review of your experience with our Company. Our goal is always to deliver what we promise in every way and it is obvious that we fell short of these goals. First I would like to apologize for having a less than great experience and based on your review overall everything was as you expected, but we obviously fell short and this helps us fix any problems with our protocols. 1. Generally when a Door is ordered an install date is held based on the Factories written delivery date. In some cases as in yours the Factory falls short of their goals as well and we don't get product delivered on time. in your case we were delayed a week. 2. As far as your a Angie's list Discount is concerned, ALL Angie's list members receive the same discount and this should have been communicated to you on the very first phone call. 3. Last and most important when we schedule an installation we realize you have made time in your day to receive us. In rare cases an installation may become more difficult or complicated than expected and all our Technicians have been trained to make sure when the installation is complete that it is perfect no matter how long it takes. This obviously impacts the second job when this happens and again this was in your case. Please know that the delay was because of our deep convictions in our quality and workmanship. Over all I know you are happy with the quality and workmanship of your new garage door but that is only part of the job, our customer service fell very short of our goals and for this please accept my sincere apologies. Training is a continued process at Christie Overhead door so when we don't reach our goals we take that opportunity to review, discuss and repair these issues. As the President I feel a personal obligation to you experience with our Company so please contact me if you ever need anything at all Sincerely Andrew Cimmino President

Everything was great with that. I chose them through Angie?s List. They were just very nice to deal with. They were prompt. They returned my calls. They were just pleasant to deal with. They did a great job. They did a wonderful job. I can't compare their prices to others but I guess it's compatible. The quality in terms of the product is very good, very nice and it's beautiful. They were very prompt. they called me when they were coming. They called me when they were on their way. They were very good to deal with. I had a minor issue which was no big deal and they just came back and took care of it so it was no problem. They were great to deal with and even the office staff was wonderful.

Thank you for the review and I understand your confusion. There was no way for you to know there was an Electrical problem with your outlet unless you called in a Professional. Our service charge is $75.00 plus tax so your actual payment was $81.66 to have a professionally trained Technician come out to your home and diagnose your real problem without taking advantage of you.

I met with the owner, Andrew, who was prompt, courteous, and thorough. I also had two more estimates, one from a big box store and the other a major retailer who both offer home improvement services. Needless to say, Christies was not only the most professional but also offered the best price. The whole process took approximately 3 weeks from order date to installation. The installer took 3 hours and upon completion thoroughly explained all of the features of the new door and keyless entry. It is my understanding that this company not only installs new doors but does garage door and opener repairs as well. I would definitely recommend this company for any garage door repairs.

They were professional, courteous, quiet, and swift. I don't remember the name of the person who did the work, but I liked that he took the time to explain his findings and recommendations as well as describe exactly what he was going to do and why. He completed the work quickly and even went out of his way to clean the garage door seal, something not strictly listed in the service. My door now operates faster, more quietly, and the garage is warmer because the seals were adjusted.

called Christie and they had a repairman at our house in about two days - very prompt and they accommodated my schedule. After discussing the situation with the repairman, I had both springs and some other hardware replaced since they were here. The repairs were done timely and neatly. The cost for the service call was well within expectations - only thing I thought was a bit expensive were the replacement parts. I am a satisfied customer and would use them again.

From start to finish The office staff at Christie Overhead Door addressed my questions and concerns. An appointment was set with a technician who arrived within the time frame that I ageed to; and completly addressed the mechanical problems with my garage door. The technician did not pressure me into additional costs with parts. Nor did he drag the work along to increase his fees. He went out of his way fix rather then replace one of the spring attachements that was giving me some difficulty. At the present time I am considering motorizing my garage door. We spoke briefly about some options; and it is my intention to have this company perform all of the mechanical work .

The technician was great, very friendly but professional, performed all services covered under the deal and also gave us a lot of good information about the system and helped us reprogram the garage door code, Very happy with the work he did. The only issue we had was with the scheduling - they were unable to keep our original appointment time, and it wound up being several hours later due to a repair job they had to do elsewhere.

It was very good. I got nylon wheels and it’s very good and much quieter. They did a nice job. I paid another $99 for the second door. The gentleman was very nice. He was very timely and did a nice, quick job. I don’t think it took him more than an hour to do the whole thing. I was very pleased with him. The price was very good. The nylon wheels made a difference. It's very quiet as opposed to the steel wheels.

It worked out well. They came pretty soon after my wife ordered the deal. She was very happy with their work. It didn't feel like they had talked us into anything. They did what they were going to do and then added a little bit of extra stuff that seemed worth doing. It didn't seem egregious.
Description of Work: We used a big deal purchase for Christie Overhead Door. They replaced some parts and things that they recommended. The deal was $99. The total was $150 because they replaced a couple of springs because the ones that were on there weren't really strong enough for the door. They may have replaced some rollers. Some of what they did was included in the deal and a little bit was extra.

I can understand your frustration completely, communication is always paramount and something I expect from our staff. As the owner of the company I stand personally responsible for the actions of all my employees. I have listened to the transcripts and clearly see you were well within your rights to be dissatisfied with our level of service. Yes we are a Family business and our personal crisis affected that days work load. I instructed my office to rectify the situation by offering you one of our Service Packs on me. I am a true believer in judging the quality of a company by how it resolves problems, lets face it behind EVERY company big and small there are humans and we are going to make errors. I sleep easy every night knowing there is nothing I wont do for my customers to give them a positive professional experience with our company. So I have reached out through phone, email, and this reply. My offer still stands if you ever want to take advantage of it. Regards, Andrew
