I was very impressed with Robert, who came to fix my noisy garage door. Literally within seconds, he identified the problem with my door and knew what to do. I couldn't see the problem at first when he pointed it out, so I asked him to show me again, and then it made sense. He adjusted the braces on the wall, and then lubricated all parts of the system that needed it. Robert told me what maintenance I could do myself each year to keep my door working well, and even how to reprogram the exterior opener. He went the extra mile for me by showing me these simple things that I can do so I won't need him to come again for a long time!
Description of Work: Garage door made noise

Description of Work: Mark at Overhead Door did a great job removing our old wooden garage doors and replacing them with new ones. He also replaced one garage door opener. Before the work was done, the office emailed me a quote and a brochure, and their price was the lowest of the ones I called.

Repairman said nothing wrong with the door--something must have temporarily blocked the sensor. Said doors were heavier than they should be from what previous owners had added to them and might eventually need to be replace, but functioning now. Appreciated his honesty about door non-issue and that he didn't even charge for the evaluation. (I don't remember the date; filed in as 1/1/2014 because form wouldn't submit without a date.)
Description of Work: checked garage door which I thought I had not been able to shut all the way.

Description of Work: Had a garage door that was jammed. He came and basically rehung the door. The Angie's coupon I had was not applicable in his opinion in that it covered routine maintenance and this was a repair. Could not really tell if he knocked any off the repair price due to being an Angies List contractor.

They had no problem responding promptly to my call--the workman came out the morning after the evening I called. He was prompt, called to let me know he was coming, and was polite. I especially liked that he explained everything to me, clearly and in detail, and told me how much it would cost before doing the work.

I called several local garage door companies. Alamo City Overhead Doors answered my call, answered all my questions, and gave me the best price I was able to find. Within two (2) days Robert was able to get my new doors up and running. He made sure everything was properly adjusted and operational. The work was done quickly and correctly the first time. The price was MUCH better than all other companies in San Antonio. Robert is a professional and I am really glad I chose this company. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this company to all my family and friends.
Description of Work: The company removed two old, damaged garage doors and installed two new doors; including all new hardware (springs and tracks).

I left a phone message initially and Robert returned my call within 20 minutes. He came out to do an estimate on the garage door opener and was able to fix it on the spot. Robert arrived on time, worked quickly and was very professional. I have used Alamo Overhead door in the past and would definitely use them again.

In every respect, our dealings with Robert have gone well.
Description of Work: Robert originally installed a Genie Pro Max garage door opener back in 2006 for us. The unit has given us great service. What I really appreciate, however, is Robert's responsiveness in fixing any maintenance issues. For example, recently we had the main garage door spring bust. Robert came within hours, fixed it quickly, and gave us a very fair price on the work. He has also made one other adjustment for me over the years. He's nice, pleasant, easy to work with, and does a great job at a fair price. I appreciate his service and would highly recommend him.

Robert responded promptly to give the estimate, gave a fair estimate, promptly arrived on the day scheduled for the installation, installed the door and was very pleasant. At this point I would have given him an A all across the board. The problem has come since the door was installed. He told me he would mail me a copy of the warranty on the door and a paid invoice. But it is now August and I still haven't received either item. I initially called him in May, when I hadn't received the items, and he told me he thought he had already sent them, but I never received them. Since then I have REPEATEDLY called him and he tells me he will send them but I still haven't received them! An initially pleasant experience has turned into a very frustrating one!
Description of Work: Installed a new garage door and spring system, balanced the overhead door with the garage door opener, and re-programmed my automobile garage door button to work with the new door.

Response from United Overhead Door Co.
Wow! This is the first I hear of this. Today is 02/08/2011 and I finally have a little to sit down and do some research on how my company is doing overall and to my surprise I came across this disturbing rating. I will do everything in my power to resolve this issue, immediately. I never in times past have relied on service sites that consumer's can rate the overall performance of a company. But, with consumers doing a good job at screening who to trust and not to trust I want to make sure my clients are secure in knowing that we are the best at what we do, especially in the economy we live in now! I have been in garage door industry for the past 8 years and have generated over 21,000 thousand clients in San Antonio alone, there again, I understand you can't please everyone. However, we surely try our best to do what is needed to elevate ourselves to a higher standard of what a service company should be. So, to you Member I deeply apologize and will handle this uncharacteristic mishap to your satisfaction. We have expanded to Austin and now this year to Dallas and it is my job as owner to make sure we please all our current clients and all the new ones that will come our way. I look forward to always having open communication with all my clients. Thanks, Robert (Owner) Alamo City Overhead Door Co.

Excellent! The technician was very professional, courteous, informative and quick! The charge of $70 covered the hinge, the oiling and the overview that he did of all the parts. He then went on his way to the rest of the work. I was very impressed he fit me into his busy schedule and I hadn't even called. Now I have a safe and secure garage door and avoided damaging the panels, in which case I would have had to get a new door which would cost thousands of dollars (I had no idea). He saved me lots of money by being proactive and not pushy! He was terrific.
Description of Work: I had a broken hinge on my garage for months, and the panels were beginning to get a bit bent. I had been procrastinating. One day Alamo City was repairing a garage across the street and the technician came to my door and told me he noticed the gap due to the broken hinge and did I want him to fix it right now? I was so glad to have him there. He looked at the break, went to his truck and replaced the hinge in about 15 minutes, oiled the parts and made some other observations (I have a broken light on the garage door opener), which I told him was completely broken. He did not try and sell me anything in addition, which I was pleased about. I know I can always replace the opener if I want to.

Extremely pleased with the work and the pricing. There was a bad wire on one of the doors and they came back promptly and repaired it as well as reprogram my remotes and keyless entry pad. I would hire them to install garage doors again.
