Are you kidding me! This guy came out with a beat up land cruiser with some garage springs on top of his roof rack. He did not even have a ladder. Looks like he was living out of his truck. read more

James McGuffey took my $250 deposit to order new springs, and now won't pick up the phone with a full voicemail box. Was initially responsive and came out quickly to look at my broken garage door spring. Said they would be in later in the week. Called back later in the week and he said he was hoping they would be in that day... Now, almost 2 weeks after they initially came out, I have not heard back and they won't answer the phone. I had used them in the past and they seemed good, but something has changed. I would NOT use Academy Overhead Door. They basically stole my $250 and disappeared into the night. read more

Excellent service! They returned my call quickly and came out to fix my garage door the same day. Kendall was polite and efficient. My dog even liked him, which was a huge plus. I would definitely recommend Academy overhead door. read more

We had previously had a positive experience with Academy Overhead Door roughly 8 years ago and therefore didn't think to check their recent ratings. When one of the springs broke on our garage door on Saturday, August 12th, we were relieved to hear that they could come out that evening. James McGuffey and his son came to our house and installed a temporary fix, which rejoined the two broken pieces of spring by threading a piece of metal onto each end. We were instructed to use it sparingly until the springs could be replaced. We agreed that he would replace both springs and that we would pay half the cost upfront. We sent him $225 that night after reviewing the invoice. We followed up with him on Thursday, August 17th regarding installation and heard back the following day that he had been out sick but would be back to work the following week. He assured us he would reach out on Sunday, August 20th to schedule installation. We have not heard anything from him since August 18th despite many attempts to reach him. We also attempted to go to the physical address listed on their website, but no building with that address exists on Pinon Ranch View. He has simply disappeared with our $225. We ended up contacting another company to complete the repair, and we will be pursuing legal action against Academy Overhead Door to recoup the money we paid toward the garage door repair. read more

Unfortunately, I have to report a bad customer service experience with Academy Overhead Doors. To make a long story short, Academy Overhead Doors was called to repair a magnetic limit switch. I thought the price was very high so I called the company for an adjustment. They refused and James, the owner, said his prices are higher than competitors but his company does a good job. I found a coupon on their website that reads, "Save $35 Off Service, Good for $35 off any service performed, Cannot be combined with any other promotions and or discounts." I immediately called and asked James to credit my bill $35. He refused and said I have to ask at payment. I don't understand why that would make a difference when I presented the coupon soon after payment. This is such bad customer service for a variety of reasons: potential customers are more important than existing customers, there are no disclosures on line that the coupon must be presented at payment, I called immediately after payment to redeem coupon, the owner is making a big deal over a small $35 off of nearly $200 ($199.95) bill, his attitude does not promote future business, the owner complained this service/issue is taking 4 hours of his time yet refuses to honor his coupon, and he kept making excuses why he's not going to honor the $35 coupon. He did finally offer $50 off future service & a can of lube but that's not what I was asking for. I tried hard to rectify the situation a few times to make things right because the last thing I wanted to do was report a bad experience with a small business. This situation was a blessing in disguise because it motivated me to interview several competitors and I found an amazing company to do all of my garage door repair and maintenance: Father and Son Garage Door. Great companies with awesome customer service should be rewarded. In my opinion, this company is not one of them. Hopefully, this review will help them make their future customers happy. read more

Set up appointment, Shawn came and serviced door. They gave a two hour window of service and updates on exact time and called 20 minutes out from call...what more could be asked. With coupon for service I paid $90.00. I had nothing wrong so expected no real issues just doing a five year check up. read more

I came behind this company to install a door opener for a lady I do considerable handyman work for. She had been quoted $200 to install a gear kit or $500 to install an opener. They charged her a little less than $100 to tune-up her door, she decided she would pick up a really good opener at Lowe's for $200 and have me install it. The door had an unbalanced weight of about 100#. Garage doors should be easy to lift and close by hand before installing an opener. I couldn't believe that they left a door this "heavy" after charging for a tune-up. This door had side-mounted springs which I can work on, but I prefer to let a garage door pro do this kind of work. I told client to call one of the Yelp five-star rated companies and have them balance door and install opener. Most prefer to install their own opener, but I'm sure that any competent garage tech will work with her, and if not, I will come back and do the opener install. There are quite a few 5 star rated door techs listed on Yelp, I'd recommend using one of them. read more

Josh came out and had my door running smoothly again in about 15 minutes. Then, he didn't garage me even though the repair was technically not covered. read more

Very courteous, personable, and professional. Academy Overhead Door wasted no time figuring out the problems with my garage and they had it fixed super fast. I highly recommend this company. A+ in all categories. read more

Do not trust this company. they quoted one price to do some work and when they arrived to do the work they increased the price. they would not honor the price to me. also I bought a Groupon coupon to service my garage door and since they serviced it there is a popping noise that was not there before. No amount of contact with the company would get them to honor their word read more

I bought a coupon from angies list. Matthew came out on time explained everything here is going to do. Later came to the door and suggested I should replace my rollers. I could see they were rusted and worn. No hard sell just a suggestion. The new rollers had nylon on me you roller part and were warranted for life. I agreed and he was done in a short while with all his adjustments. The gar age door was the quietest it has ever been. read more

I have used Academy Overhead Door many times and will keep coming back. Anthony was on time, did a quality job, and explained exactly what was needed. I even purchased a replacement door that we love. They respond quickly in emergency situations and always do better than expected. read more

Very rude and unprofessional. These gentleman show up and hassle my wife about driving so far for our appointment with them that they have to charge her a $49 service call fee even though our garage door issue was resolved. They didn't even look at the garage, just stood at the front door demanding money for driving out. I think they are used to working for people with money who will pay them to go away. I'm a military guy and they don't offer a discount or honor coupons for the service call fee. It would be different if they had even looked at the garage. read more

I had to get my garage door put back together after it came off the track. Academy Door came out and secured my garage door. Sean was very courteous and personable. He gave me an estimate for a new door and was very helpful with suggestions on what kind of door would work for us. I definitely would recommend Academy Door. read more

Matt was very good to work with. He was very pleasant and carefully explained to me what was needed. The service was quick and efficient. The door now runs smoothly. Thanks. read more

Make sure you get a quote in writing the technician told me that I knew you would be $179 plus $65 for a keypad outside my garage. Following the installation he then proceeds to tell me he wants $579. Not good folks. read more

This was the first time I used this company. Was impressed with my initial call for an appointment to service my doors. I told them I saw a groupon for servicing and asked if I needed a groupon for each of my two doors. Was told no, and in fact, was given the groupon rate without having to download the groupon. My appointment was on Wednesday morning between 9 and 11 am. Got a call from Shawn when he was 25 minutes away, and he and Matt arrived as stated. Professional, caring, and productive. They serviced both doors and explained what they did. I took the opportunity to inquire about replacing an old Craftsman opener. They offered what I thought was a reasonable cost on a new on, so I had them do a major replacement job with a Liftmaster. I'm so glad I did, and I was thankful Shawn and Matt could do it right then and there. Doesn't always happen this way! So, from their quality work this morning, I can, without reservation, recommend their company, and particularly Shawn and Matt. read more

As soon as the guy showed up I told him I had a hard stop in 90 minutes which he quickly let me know he would be long gone by then. He was right! 45 minutes flat and he installed a new opener, replaced the rollers, and greased up my tracks. He was professional, honest, and quick. I will definitely call them again for future service if I ever need it and will highly recommend to friends. read more

I had a safety issue with my garage door opener and found Academy Overhead Door on Angie's List. Their reviews were great and there was a coupon so I thought I'd try them out. I called them on Monday morning and Shawn came to repair the garage door opener that day. Shawn on time, polite and very informative. He wrote a clear and concise estimate and made recommendations. The estimate was less that I thought it would be and included basic maintenance as well! Shawn completed the work in less than an hour and the garage door opener has never worked better! If you need a company to perform professional quality work at a reasonable price Academy Overhead Door is the one! Thank you so much Academy Overhead Door and Shawn! read more

We were in a bind. It was Wednesday evening and the spring broke on our garage door with one car trapped inside. I was out of town and called Academy Overhead Door to see if they could possibly help us as my wife needed to leave town the next morning. Academy adjusted their schedule and arrived at out house first thing the next morning. Less than two hours later the door was fixed, lubed and adjusted. It has never operated more quietly--- and added bonus. Team member, Matt, did a great job. Thank you. read more

My overhead door broke and I was unable to use it. I called Academy and they set me up with an appointment for 8:00 am next day. I received a courtesy call at about 7:30 am and Jason arrived right at 8:00. He diagnosed the problem, fixed the door, and was on his way by 9:00 am. The whole process was extremely quick and easy. My garage door works great and is very smooth and quiet now as well. read more

This company, be careful. I had work done a year ago to replace a broken spring. The same replacement spring broke the company came out and told me this was the other side. They made the entire process complicated, difficult and they seemed down-right dishonest. The tech told me when they replace springs, the write notes based on standing outside the door, yet a tech from the company told me, on the same day, they write notes from inside the garage looking out. Regardless of in or out, the same spring is broke and this company wont cover under warranty. This company even went as far as to call me back to tell me they cant discuss how the determine what side over the phone...after they had already done so. They confuse and frustrate the customer, with smoke screens with the anticipation the customer gives in. Be warned. Plenty of other companies that will treat you with care, honesty and respect. read more

Not sure if this goes with Academy Overhead Door in the springs too, but horrible HORRIBLE company! Between taking months to fix because wrong panels ordered, etc.... The end price was over $100 that we were quoted... The customer service was bad.... So, when out bill came closer to $750 that $600 as told... We started getting very unhappy with this business... Then after posting a Facebook review we have someone call to offer us $75 refund & they asked us to take our review down.... So we did in hopes they'd keep their word & weeks later still nothing! I post on their Facebook & now they just delete their reviews! I work for a small business and NEVER would we treat our customers like this!! Do not go here, you will have to call the company to see what's going on and everything, they will not give you updates by calling you & letting you know. Plus, when you call they will be rude... Except when they want payment. If you want your patience tested, months to fix your door & be overcharged (with a lie of a refund) then go here... If you want right price quote, quick & friendly service go somewhere else! They delete bad reviews on their pages so BEWARE!! read more
