I couldn't be happier with American Overhead Doors. I had a repair of Springs and cables in both my garage doors and they did a fantastic job. I didn't feel pressured or overwhelmed with any and all suggestions that were made. Jack was the technician and he did a fabulous job. I would recommend this company very highly and we'll use them again in the future.

Called them on Sunday and left a message that I needed service on my garage door opener. I received a return call the next morning that a service rep would be out later in the same day. The rep came in the afternoon and fixed the problem to my complete satisfaction. I would not hesitate to recommend AOD to anyone.

The workmanship was great. The waiting 6 months for the garage door was not. Some communication problems in the beginning with sales person. Found someone new to ask questions and it was much better.
