We had a garage door issue and Gil's was the 3rd garage door company that we talked to. Garage…read moredoor company #1 sent a rep that was very pushy and super sketch. He also wanted $600 to lower the door prior to assessing and quoting on recommended repairs. Garage door company #2 sent a rep that was still very aggressive, but at least they were able to get the door in a somewhat functional condition (door rollers back on the rails, cabling back on the drums, spring tension redone) for $200. It was functioning in manual mode, but in automatic, the door would stop 2/3s of the way down and go back up. Company #2 incorrectly diagnosed the problem as an internal issue with the limits on the door opener. They also wouldn't give a straight quote or a recommendation on what to fix. It was more of an a la carte - if you want to replace the springs, $699; cables + drums + springs ($1529); garage door opener $2500+. This would be like going to a car mechanic for squeaky brakes and getting menu pricing of replacing each part of your car. I digress... here's the actual review: Because of the first two companies, I was ready for more shenanigans from Gil's. However, the representative that arrived was a breath of fresh air. Avi examined the area and gave us his assessment. The door was balanced and no visible issues with any of the parts. The Chamberlain wall mount unit was unlikely to be the issue as they are fairly robust units and probably just needed reprogramming. I told him I wanted to try and reprogram it myself and asked for a quote on a replacement in case it was an opener issue. Avi was extremely professional, honest, and taught us a little about the mechanics of the door opening system. Even though we were able to resolve the problem, I would definitely go with Gil's for any major repair. After seeing all three repairmen, I took some time on the weekend to see if there was anything I could adjust. I noticed the rail was two separate pieces of metal and that they weren't aligned perfectly with each other. I used an adjustable wrench to bend the rails a little to fix that. I also added some lubricant to the rails and cleaned the safety sensors as well. Garage door is working like a charm now.

If you have 5 weeks to wait for Keen to complete a simple garage door replacement and time to deal…read morewith 6 different technicians coming to your home then Keen is for you. I called on March 21 and requested a new garage door. On March 25 Josh Keen arrived and managed to tell me his whole life story while preparing the estimate. He did not see or ask me if I wanted a key pad. I was told that Keen had my garage door in stock at one of their neighboring businesses and that once the door was sent to Santa Rosa they would be in touch. On April 22, Derek arrived and installed the garage door but it was not the one that I had ordered and set aside for me. I ordered a garage door with windows and Keen installed one without windows. Another round of appointments were made and a worker came and dropped off the window panel for the upper part of the garage door. A few hours later another worker came and installed the panel and took the solid panel with him. He said another worker would be coming that same day with the key pad. I questioned if he had the right one and was assured he did. Of course he had 2 key pads on the truck but neither were compatible with my door!! You would think that at this point Keen Garage doors would expedite the case to simply install a key pad. But no!! They place me in the appointment queue and offer a complimentary one year membership to have my door serviced. What a joke. Who has time to set up appointments and deal with incompetent office people and workers. Finally on May 6 the key pad was installed. I wondered if this outfit had ever installed garage doors before and I also wonder how they stay in business.

Jonathan does!!! 1) I had already been through this process with another company so I understood the grade of springs and realized that the ones that Jonathan installed were two grades higher yet the price he charged me was less than they did as was the service not to mention the fact that I had to make an appointment two weeks in advance with these guys and Jonathan skipped in and out for me. 2) Jonathan didn't try to upsell me at all I actually asked him about replacing the opener and two bent pieces of track. He fixed the bent pieces of track and told me that my opener would probably be good for another 20 years so he didn't try to upsell me anything. He wouldn't even let me pay for his In-N-Out Burger. 3) I really enjoy supporting family owned businesses and the fact that he had his son with him and that he was showing him the ropes just resonates with me. There is a reason why this guy has so many five-star reviews I refer all my business to him and I do it with confidence.

I was informed of a price around $200-300 for single or both springs, plus labor (which many places would not provide unless I had them come out first). It seems like the price could vary depending on the garage door style, size, and weight. Also, another place had quoted me $485 right off the bat therefore this was the best option so far. They let me know that the technician would have all the necessary parts and tools for whatever option I go with (very convenient). Technician Sam called me to notify he was on the way and when he arrived outside. Upon arrival, he inspected our garage and said it would be more than quoted since I had a heavy door (~$400-500). He provided us with two different priced options, differing in expected lifespan and labor (~$100) warranties. The job was estimated to take around 30 mins, depending on if there was complications with the existing parts. Sam was very professional and knowledgeable with all the mechanics and components. He let us know more about what we had installed and what could potentially fail or cause us issues in the future. He also gave us recommendations on how to properly maintain the garage door to prolong it's functionality and life. After we made our choice, he began working right away. During this time, he came to get our attention and let us know that the bearings needed to be replaced soon and we just asked him to do them since it was already disassembled and the labor cost was flat rate. It all ended up taking closer to an hour, and despite the higher than anticipated expense... we felt very assured and satisfied with the outcome we received. We love supporting family owned businesses, especially when they provide great quality and service! Highly recommend.

Long, long overdue updated review (previous review was from a tenant that quickly wrote it after…read morebeing requested to when the job was done): Absolutely atrocious installation, and very, very unprofessional. The garage door installed was not the one that was negotiated during our call, which had a few other additions to it. The installer even FORGOT TO BRING one with a MAIL SLOT!! Unbelievable!! After realizing a garage door does indeed need a mail slot, he said "Oh, well, don't worry, this one is on the house, it's on me man!" like it was some kind of favor or nice thing to do, then expressed "I have to go all the way to Home Depot to get it, but since I'm a nice guy I'll do this for you this one time." I couldn't believe what I was hearing, he seriously thought it wasn't his fault. He then proceeded to install the most ghetto mail slot, it wasn't even straight or aligned correctly, not stainless steel, and when inserting your hand through the top part of the metal that he cut snags the top of your hand and can cut you. The metal part he cut even covers at least 1/3 of the insert hole! He also did not install the new chain that came with the garage door opener and kept saying it's not needed and is an "extra job" to do. Anything that was said that wasn't satisfactory he kept saying "it's fine, it's fine, don't worry about it" and "you don't have to care so much about it, why do you care about these things? I think it's fine and nobody can see it anyway," while there were some dents on the "new" garage door after he installed it when it was pointed out. Even when asked "if you installed it like this at your place, would you be fine with it?" He replied, "I don't really think it's a big deal." So unprofessional. He also tried to upsell me on railings and wheels, and other things I didn't need. Furthermore, when he was contacted about everything, he told my tenant "I'm not the main installer guy, the other guys that work at this company are way better and they can install them 100% correctly, but since they weren't available I had to go out and do it." I can't believe this kind logic and all these excuses, and still expected to be paid fully like nothing was wrong or weird. Very dishonest company and will try to use any excuse to half-ass their job or laziness, as well as using ways and saying things in a way to make the customer "feel bad" or "uncomfortable" to not speak up to them or mention something off. Ever since then, the garage does not properly close, having to get out and hold down the button from the inside since the sensors think there is something in the way or wrong with the rail alignment, the door is super loud, even making a really big "bang" sound each time it goes opens and closes. The garage door hasn't been able to close normally for quite a long, long time now, by garage door remote or normal wall button, often times having to manually close it by hand as well! Also reading other reviews, I was also told that there was tax and was charged for it when maintenance and service labor isn't taxable. Stay away from this company, please! The low star ratings are here for a reason!
