Over the last couple of years I have had great experiences with Garage Door Medics. Matthew has been out to install a new garage opener motor and also helped when the door was shuttering. I thought the track needed adjustment from expanding with weather temperature changes, but it turned out that all I needed was a new set of rollers. The door opens smoothly and is so much quieter. He was super knowledgeable and professional. Then recently when I unintentionally changed the remote program code and none of the openers were working, he saved me again. Top notch service every single time. I highly recommend going with these guys…just call them!
