    Great experience with Gulf Side. I called on Monday morning because both remotes stopped working at the same time, even with fresh batteries. A friendly and helpful person answered the phone(!) and was able to send a technician a few hours later who quickly diagnosed and fixed the issue. While he was here he also noticed a rusted and frayed cable that was close to failing, and replaced that as well. Extremely reasonable pricing, quick response, and professional staff. Will use Gulf Side again.

    Amanda fit me in on a very busy Monday, and Brandon Deharde fixed my garage door issue quickly and perfectly. He explained the problem also. I highly recommend Gulf Side Overhead Door!

    Great service and pricing. Professionally installed 2 doors for us and diagnosed and serviced a third. Will use them for all our garage door needs and recommend them to all our friends.

    I called yesterday and this morning two nice young men showed up, very professional, and quickly analyzed the situation. One hour later I had a brand new opener, button, and new remotes. The cost was reasonable and fair. This is the way businesses should treat customers.

    Unfortunately the worst experience of all time with getting a garage door opener installed. 3 months after install, the track came off the wall. When I called a guy out to fix it, he said it was the builders fault even though it was clear as day that this company didn’t put in long enough lag screws. He was very unprofessional while trying to fix the track. Answering phone calls, dropping tools, etc. He was trying to muscle parts together and cut corners as much as possible. Even asking for me to help him out lol. The worst part is that he broke his drill in half when he released the torsion spring causing damage to my top panel. His drill also CAUGHT ON FIRE inside of my house setting off all of my smoke alarms and then caught on fire inside of his truck. It was an absolute nightmare. All of this being said, I am now working with a different company to fix this guys mistakes and am spending $3,000 dollars to make these wrongs right. I wouldn’t ask this company to install anything for me if it was the last company on earth.

    Great communication, great prices, and great service! I'm very happy with my experience with Gulf Side Overhead Door. They installed 2 chain openers on my industrial garage doors and I'm very happy with the outcome. I worked with Lori and her communication was top notch. I'm a lifelong customer.

    Through my own fault, I totally screwed up my garage door, so I called Gulf Side and scheduled an appointment. Brandon arrived and immediately figured out how to approach the issue and went to work. In no time, he had my garage door working better than ever. Thank you Brandon and thank you Gulf Side for saving my garage door!

    Gulf Side Overhead Doors was totally service oriented throughout our experience with the company. They scheduled us for installation as soon as they handed us the quotation, even though we weren't willing to commit yet. We phoned GSOD the next day to affirm our commitment to the purchase, and then called again an hour later to stall the installation by a week to allow time for the architectural review committee to approve our application to change the exterior look of our house. GSOD instantly rescheduled to our desired installation date. Gulf Side Overhead Doors kept us in the loop as to when our new garage door arrived in their shop and when the installation crew was arriving. There were no changes in the pricing between the quoted prices at the time of the quotation, and there were no extra fees for chipping away concrete to make room for the new hardware or for accommodating non-level concrete and non-square existing door framing. The installation crew was efficient and obviously experienced at installing many other garage doors. All the work was conducted in a safe and professional manner. The crew was patient with fully answering any technical questions that were asked about the equipment or the process of installing the equipment. They took one small break between installing the door and installing the motor to eat a late lunch. The entire process at the house took about four hours. All the old equipment and packaging from the new equipment was hauled off in the installation truck at no extra charge. There were extra charges that I accepted for asking for an extra car controller and an external controller that weren't in the original quotation. All the controllers were programmed and tested to make sure they controlled the door opening and closing properly. Their last act was to clean up the work area trying to make sure no extra bolts or nuts were left behind. The painting contractor who arranged the competitive garage door bid was impressed enough to consider taking on Gulf Side Overhead Door as their new garage door contractor. For some reason, I was especially impressed that all of the prices that Gulf Side Overhead door quotes already include any applicable sales taxes. It was satisfying that "what you see is what you get". Services Rendered: Gulf Side Overhead Door Inc. provided an estimate to replace our 24 year old garage door and its opening motor with a hurricane rated W4 garage door and more powerful reliable opening mechanism for $1700, fully $600 below another quality competing bid. In addition, new controllers for car use and an external keypad for opening the door without a car controller were quoted. Full compliance with the door manufacturers instructions to apply new 6"x2" lumber around the periphery of the door were promised, and an inspector certified by the state for hurricane rated equipment would provide an inspection and paperwork showing the engineering calculations.

    The two car garage never really needed an automatic door, but we wanted one. Gulf Side took the old one down and installed new tracks along with the new electric door. The project only took one morning and it sure is nice to stay in the car when it's raining. I bumped into it once, so Gulf Side came back to straighten one of the tracks for no charge. Services Rendered: Gulf Side Overhead Door replaced the old non-electric garage door with a power model.

    Gulf Side Overhead was very punctual and professional. I called to make an appointment and they came as soon as they could. I would recommend them to my friends and family. Services Rendered: Called Gulf Side Overhead because my garage door wouldn't open. Gulf Side came and replaced the chains on the garage door.
