    We had a great experience with American Joe! Joe answered the phone and came out with Steve. They were professional, friendly, and extremely responsive from start to finish. We really appreciated that they didn't try to upsell us- instead, they explained our options clearly and without any pressure. They installed the garage door opener in about 30minutes. Highly recommend their honest and reliable service!

    We have called Joe in the past when our garage door needed repair, and he was always prompt and efficient, resolving our issues quickly, and with a friendly smile. So when we needed to replace our garage door opener, of course we called Joe. He was able to recommend several great options to select from, and the installation went smoothly and as scheduled. We have had great experiences with Joe, and recommend him for any help you need with your garage door or opener.

    Joe was communicative, even on a weekend, came that same week, and did the work in about 30 minutes. He and his partner were friendly and efficient and cleaned up conscientiously. 100% pleased with the service I received from start to finish.

    Outstanding job by American Joe. I was looking for a couple things when I selected a company to install two new wall mounted garage door openers. 1) Local company where I could actually talk to the owner (Joe) - check. 2) Competitive price - check and 3) Quick & high quality work - check. Joe delivered in all three areas. Plus, I've now had these garage door openers for 1.5 years and can say that Joe also checks the box for 4) post-installation service. One of the openers had an issue (no fault of the installer) and Joe came back to adjust / fix things for free. Thus, my five star rating and recommendation.

    American Joe Garage Service was excellent from start to finish. They arrived on time for both the estimate and repair, diagnosed my wiring and wall-control issues immediately, replaced a bent vertical rail quiickly, and fixed everything perfectly. They replaced a faulty controller and installed backup batteries I hadn't installed yet—both at no charge. The work is meticulous, the doors now run flawlessly, and the price was very reasonable. Professional, honest, and highly skilled—truly outstanding service.

    My Liftmaster garage wall-mounted unit (Model 885LM) wasn't working, so I called American Joe for repair services. They installed it 5 years ago. He figured out what I needed by my description, which is that the 3V (button-cell) battery (CR2032) was out of commission. These batteries usually run out of juice in 3 years. I'm not handy, but he explained how to properly remove the wall unit and to change out the battery. He immediately answered my call right after finishing up another job. Communicative and friendly was his tone and effective was his guidance. He did not need to come out, but he could have played it another way. I don't know him, but he seems like a stand-up guy. Great to work with. I recommend him highly. Services Rendered: Liftmaster garage door wall-mounted opener was not working.

    A spring on one of my doors snapped on Sunday. Joe had serviced my doors a number of years ago so figured I see if he was still in the business. Texted the number on the old business card I had and got a response back in about 10 minutes, on a Sunday! After a few texts and photos he gave me a quote. Steve showed up today (Monday) within the window advised. Installed springs on both doors and adjusted them. Both work much smoother than they did previously. You need garage door service, call Joe. Services Rendered: Spring broke on one of my garage doors

    Joe was here for less than 15 min. Sprayed the roller and track and diod little else.He tried to sell me new lifetime rollers for $175. He never checked the downward pressure or springs. I could have done the same work for less then $10. It was NOT worth $59. Services Rendered: Garage door tune up.

    I purchased an Angie's List Big Deal for this service and it turned out very well. My service has been very good since the work was performed. The value of the work compares very well to the price. I thought the work was fast, convenient and they were able to accommodate my times. I had no problems and thought everything went very well. Services Rendered: I used American Joe Garage Door Repair Service to put in a garage door opener.

    Joe replaced a torsion spring in one garage door and replaced all rollers in two doors. He recommended that the second spring be replaced and that strengthening brackets be added to both doors. but did not have a second with him. He returned several days later and, for an additional $125.00, replaced the second spring and added two strengthening brackets. Services Rendered: Replaced spring in one garage door and rollers in two doors.

    The price for the repairs was higher than expected. Work took less than 1/2 hour and parts couldn't have been much, but I was already on the hook from of the tune-up i purchased. Was not very neat when spraying rail and hinges. Lubricant ran down the door and got all over the floor and was not cleaned up. Light bulbs were not replaced, this should have been included in the tune-up price since not much was done for the tune-up Services Rendered: Garage door tune up. Replaced garage door sensors and one spring and lubricated the rails.
