We had a positive experience with this company and with Avi the technician who helped us replace our garage door opener and springs. Our old opener was from 2002 and the gears broke off the belt so the door would not open. Avi came and identified the issue - while we could just replace the belt, the unit was old so we decided to replace the whole thing. At the same time, Avi identified the springs were not installed correctly (too many turns or something) which causes the door to drop / fly up when the latch was not on. He offered to replace the springs too. I just replaced the spring with another company last year so I was surprised to learn they were not installed correctly. We were able to reach a bundled price for replacing the opener and the springs. which seems comparable with other companies. I would use this company's services again. read more

One of my garage door springs broke on a Sunday night. I called Gil's Garage Door & Gates at 6:30am on Monday morning and spoke with Tina. She was able to schedule me for a same day appointment with an estimated arrival time of 8am. Avi arrived at my home promptly at 8am and he was able to inspect my broken garage door spring. He was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He provided me with the typical life span of a garage door spring and a great estimate which was fair/competitive. The repair was done within an hour and my garage was working as good as new. I would definitely recommend them to anyone in the future! read more

I'm so late in writing this review. Our garage door spring broke on a Friday night and in a panic I logged on to Yelp to see who was available to repair my door. Tina from Gil's garage door responded right away that she had availability on Sunday between 9 and 11. I immediately called her and booked the appointment. Avi was right on schedule. He assessed the door and confirmed that the spring was broken. He also noticed a few other problems with the door that was due to the original installation. He recommended the changes in addition to replacing the broken spring. Avi was very personable, knowledgeable and a true professional. The price was competitive and I would definitely use this company again for future garage door needs. I highly recommend. read more

We had a great experience with this company! We had been dealing with an ongoing issue with our Liftmaster Gate getting stuck and had other companies come out to troubleshoot with no success. Izzy was very knowledgeable about our system and was able to determine the problem with just a few tests. He also explained what the issue was so we understood and made sure to test our MyQ app, remotes, Ring and keypad before he left. Extremely thorough, friendly and positive. I will definitely call them again if needed! read more

I had two companies come out and give me quotes for a repair or replacement of my garage door opener First guy was very high and wanted to replace just about everything except the garage door. The second guy was pretty reasonable he thought I don't need to replace anything even though they were like 20 years old, including spring My research showed that spring should probably be replaced, but I could wait I wanted to get another opinion quote and I had not found this company before. I liked that their family owned and operated Came out quickly and gave me their opinion on everything which was very valuable I may have used them depending on the price, but all things being equal I like to support small businesses read more

Our garage door spring broke and Avi was able to fix it for us the same night! He changed both springs, noting that they have a pretty standard life expectancy and that the other side likely wouldn't last much longer (and he had to remove both sides to fix the broken spring anyway). He mentioned that we should change out the rollers since they were plastic and the noise indicated they were on their way out. That's going to have to wait for another day, but I'm grateful for the insight. He also fixed a tilt on our motor, just because he saw the problem and wanted to avoid future issues. And he lubricated the garage door and showed me how to do it myself next year. Avi really went above and beyond -- I'd definitely recommend and would call them again. read more

Avi was our technician and we are very pleased with the professionalism and quality of service and product that was installed. Highly recommend this company! read more

One of my garage door springs broke in the evening . The company provided a clear quote up front and was able to replace the springs the same night. They have a good process in place where you get a text confirming your appointment with the name of the person scheduled to work on the replacement. The person then called when they were close to arriving. From my perspective, everything went smoothly (and quickly!). read more

Gil was super responsive and knowledgeable. Definitely include him while you're quoting out a project.

My garage door wouldn't close all the way about 6 inches from the bottom. I tried to get winding rods to do it myself, but was unsuccessful so I contacted Gil's garage doors through Yelp's request a quote. They were able to come out same day and the technician was super informative and respectful. Explain to me all about the springs the lifespan and how a garage door should work with the motor vs mine was pulling down too much. Ultimately ended up going with them because of the fair price and expert knowledge. Would use again. read more

We had an amazing experience with Gil's Garage here in Martinez. After thinking we might need to replace our entire garage door, they came out quickly, assessed the issue, and instead of upselling us on a replacement, they found a smart, cost-effective solution by reinforcing the existing door. It saved us a tremendous amount of money! Avi, the technician who did the work, was fantastic -- professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. He explained everything clearly and had our garage door working perfectly in no time. It's rare to find a company that's this honest and customer-focused.

Michael came out to oil an lubricant our garage. He was professional and friendly and said it good to keep up on the maintenance to keep it running. He was fast and reliable and it was reasonable. I would use them again . Thanks Michael read more

Sam was waiting for me when I got home from work and was able to install a brand new garage within an hour... Excellent service!

Wow, from start to finish, everything went better than expected. Starting with the under-5-minute response time to my initial Yelp service request. I was able to get their technician Sam to come out within 2 hours to service my garage doors. Sam was professional, courteous and efficient. He diagnosed and triaged the problems causing my squeaking sounds accurately and resolved them with a new pair of springs and thorough maintenance lubrication, judging that the opener itself may still have some life left. The job itself was less than an hour and the pricing for materials and labor seemed fair. Will plan to go back to them when I need a new opener! read more

Absolutely have to give up a 5-star review for Gil's Garage Door and Gates! We were in a situation where we had deferred service and maintenance on our garage door. Had let Gil's know that we would need an assessment and also advisement, along with any necessary repairs. Avi showed up right on time and he was awesome from the start. Honest, friendly, and completely receptive to our situation. He assessed the situation and provided some helpful information, both about what we needed to do on the spot, and also what some recommendations for longer-term care were. The price ended up being very reasonable, and much less than what we were bracing for. However, Avi was really up front and honest in answering all my questions about longer term care and future possible expenses and maintenance. I would recommend Gil's strongly, based on this experience, and we will certainly be calling them again in about 6 months for another check in and tune up! read more

Gil's helped my father in law, first with his Liftmaster wireless keypad and later pairing his new car's homelink with the opener. So Sunday morning I submitted a request through Yelp for help with my 2004 Liftmaster. I got a response right away and at 1:00 sharp Michael showed up. We discussed various options and settled on a new model with internet connectivity and a camera for a reasonable price. Next day Michael was back with the new unit and made quick work of its installation, all the while answering my many questions. He then worked with me to install the iPhone app and to pair my two cars. Couldn't have gone better! If you're in need of help with your garage door, I highly recommend you contact Gil's first. You will be in good hands. read more
