Dave came the very next day after responding minutes after I put in a request on Yelp. He was extremely knowledgeable and kept me in loop on his timing for our appointment. He replaced the springs in my door in record time, during a heatwave! I will definitely reach out the next time I need garage door help, though I doubt that will be any time soon with his excellent work. Thank you! read more

Dave arrived the same day I called him to replace the motor for our garage door which would not open. He was very friendly, professional and installed the motor efficiently and quickly. The motor comes with an app to be used to open and close the door from your phone as well as the traditional clicker method. Super easy and would definitely call Dave again for my next garage door service! read more

Garage Door Basics is now my go-to company for any problems with garage doors. Dave came out and, within minutes, was able to analyze the problems and correct them.

Fast response. Good communication. Very pleasant to work with. Highly recommended. Thanks

We had Dave from Garage Door Basics come out and look at our garage motor a couple months back, which was opening on its own. He diagnosed the issue, reset the machine and told me to give him a call if it happened again. He did not try to sell me a motor replacement, which I appreciated. The problem persisted, so I contacted Dave via text. We were able to talk through pricing and options, and he came out the two days later and replaced the motor. The whole replacement was completed in under 30 minutes. Great service and quick turn around - I would highly recommend this company for your garage door needs. read more

There are surprisingly few businesses that respond, show up and do what they say these days. I am happy to say David not only responded, but made extra effort to attend to my garage door problem. I tried MANY services that wouldn't even respond and others that wouldn't show up. Thank you David for your service! read more

Our garage door sort of worked and then didn't so I looked up garage door servicing on Yelp. GDB was the 2nd company I viewed but the most positive comments overall. I sent a message late one evening, got a reply that same evening, and then made an appointment the next morning. John was at our house, found the problem and got the spring replaced for a reasonable price. All of this took place in about 36 hours from start to finish! Great service and very much worthwhile for us to have GDB do this job. read more

So my garage door completely busted this morning and the whole day I had a bad feeling like I would be spending thousands of dollars today. When I got home at 3:30 pm I called garage door basics and spoke with David Lee and he told me he would try to make it today and he did. He came in very nice guy and he knew what he was doing. Instead of trying to sell me a whole new garage door system he was honest with me and told me it was an easy fix. To my surprise he was ready to work on it immediately and I could not tell you how happy I was. In less than an hour he had fixed the garage door , tightened springs and even adjusted my motor for only $275.5 star service.

Thank you for the great service you made my day. read more

I had a problem with my 22 year old opener. Found Garage Door Basics on Yelp and their 5.0 rating with hundreds of reviews. Nobody gets that kind of rating with that many reviews. Here goes nothing. I reached out to them and got a response within minutes. Over the course of several emails, I realized I was going to need a replacement door opener. Dave offered me a unit st a quoted price. I asked if he could install a different unit, which he agreed to and quoted me a price for the unit and accessories I needed. Dave showed up at the agreed upon time, replaced my door opener, adjusted the springs and hinges on my door, walked me through the operation of my new opener and coached me on what to look for when the door or opener need service. All within 90 minutes with no drama. This was the single best Yelp "find" I have had to date. As compared to my ongoing kitchen remodel drama, these guys do everything right: they are responsive, they manage expectations and they communicate promptly. read more

I had a garage door spring break. Dave responded immediately to my inquiry and we made an appointment for the following morning. He not only arrived on time but sent me a reminder and informed me that he was on his way. He worked quickly and explained everything he did and why it needed to be done. He also gave me advice on the rest of my garage door system and made sure it was working properly. I also appreciate that he is local because I prioritize using local businesses. read more

Our garage door opener stopped working due to its age and could no longer be repaired. Dave provided me the model of what would be installed at a very reasonable price. The replacement was scheduled the same week and Dave promptly showed up at the time that was stated, installed all the components that was stated, and provided me the serial number and documentation.

My garage door had a couple dents and cracks, causing the door to fold and make a significant amount of noise when opening and closing. It was starting to look and sound dangerous, so I called Garage Door Basics and a few other places in order to get quotes. Dave from Garage Door Basics contacted me right away and scheduled a time to come look at my garage door soon after. A different garage door place told me I would have to replace my entire garage door because of the amount of damage. After Dave inspected my garage door, he assured me that it was unnecessary to replace the entire door, and that my door had plenty of life left. We ended up hiring Dave to repair the door. Not only did he do an excellent job of repairing the garage door, he saved us a lot of money by being honest about its condition. read more

Our garage door gave out on a Saturday at 1pm. Dave was there by 4:30, and he was able to replace our garage door motor and tighten our springs right away. He was kind, informative, and charged a fair price without pressure. He also showed me how to tell when my garage door needs servicing so we won't blow out another motor. It was excellent service, and turned what could have been a nightmare into a quick home upgrade. We cannot recommend him enough! read more

My car was being held hostage by my garage. The door wouldn't go up electronically or manually. Made a few calls but no one wanted to come on a Saturday to fix it.

He immediately found the problem and fixed it. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you David. read more

Dave was absolutely wonderful. My sister had just gotten her garage door motor replaced, and I needed the same, so she referred me to Dave. I called him, and we made arrangements for him to come out and take a look the following evening. He Texted exactly when he said he would, and arrived shortly there after. He assessed the situation immediately, and gave me my options. He went to work then and there, and everything was done within an hour and a half. He explained everything to me, and got me set up on the myQ app. Excellent communication and service all the way around. I'm gonna be recommending Dave & Garage Door Basics to everybody I know. Thank you, Dave. read more

Dave is a rock star. He replaced our ancient garage door opener fast and with quality work. Dave was very quick to respond to arrange a quote and then provided an appt the same week.

Left a message with GDB and Dave returned my call within the hour, sent me motor specs and asked me to send him pics for a basic install on a flip-up aluminum door. Sent him some shots, and he scheduled me for an install before the end of the week!! Reasonable price, no BS, and a good warranty. Hopefully won't ever have to call him again but will definitely if I need to! PS: he also connected the opener to the Bluetooth on my phone, so I don't even need the remote. Cool! read more

Our garage door started acting up (reluctant to close, coming off the track, etc), so glad we called Dave! He responded super fast and came out the same day (on a Saturday no less!).

I cannot recommend this company enough. Yesterday I suddenly had a problem with my garage door. It wouldn't close. I managed to manually shut the door most of the way, but I was concerned about safety for both my car and me should someone come into the garage and then gain access to my backyard. I had to have the door fixed that day. I immediately went on the Internet and called several companies all of which advertised same day service. However, either no one answered and I left a message or when I did get someone, they couldn't come that day. Finally, at about 1 pm, I got Dave and explained the problem with my door and expressed my concerns regarding security. He said he had a lot of appointments but promised he would get to my house by the end of the day. He kept in touch a couple of times to let me know he was still coming but he had to finish with all his appointments and it would be later. He arrived after 8 pm and my thought was this poor man must be so tired. But he didn't seem it. He was ready to work. I immediately thanked him for coming, and he thanked me for waiting for him! Within a matter of minutes he figured out what was wrong with the door and fixed it. And then took the time to explain to me things to look out for and how to correct them if it happened again. He was extremely knowledgeable, very professional, and personable. My puppy who's fearful of strangers even liked him. What a fabulous company and what a fabulous work ethic. I would give them 10 stars if I could. Thanks again, Dave! read more

Our garage door had been laboring a bit and was wobbling when opening and closing. I thought it might be an issue with the motor, but soon found a broken cable. I found Garage Door Basics on Yelp and based my decision to go with them based off of their reviews. I called and left a message and was contacted shortly after by Dave. He was pretty busy, but kept me up to date regarding his availability. As soon as his schedule was open, he came to the house, figured out that one of the springs were busted and replaced everything within half an hour. After an extra little maintenance he did to the door, it worked perfectly. Would definitely use their services again and would recommend them to anyone with garage door issues. read more

I would like to highlight my wonderful experience with Dave from Garage Door Basics. I was extremely impressed by the high level of his expertise and in-depth knowledge with regards my garage door issues, in addition to his outstanding customer service skills that I felt compelled to go on the record with my praise, where in an era of exceptional one on one customer service excellence has virtually disappeared from this Industry. He explained in detail by identifying the problem and the repairs needed. He is a consummate professional and my interaction with him went beyond my expectations. I would highly recommend Dave for all your garage needs. read more

My garage door springs broke this morning. I looked at Yelp and called the first company with good reviews which was Garage Door Basics.

Our garage door stopped working and had no idea what was wrong. Looked up Yelp around our neighborhood and found all five star review Garage Door Basics. Called and left a message on Fri, Dave called back within hour and we set up an appointment for this morning. He showed up promptly as promised and fixed it within minutes. All it was an misalignment of the laser which I had no clue. I offered to pay him for his trip to fix what's been a major inconvenience for my wife who parks in the garage. He would not take any payment and just asked to call him back when we needed his service in the future. Very honest, courteous and good businessman. I will undoubtedly recommend Dave to my friends and family and call him next time we need a garage repair service for sure. Mahalo! read more
