βInstall was a couple years ago. The door openers work wellabsolutely no issues. Had some work done in my garage that seemed to cause one of the doors to not function. Called Ilya. He picked up right away, listened to the symptoms and knew exactly what to have me try. It worked! He offered to come as well. 100% recommend using Ilya.β
βQuick and friendly service from the receptionist to the technician Mike. The receptionist was very nice and polite. She was able to arrange a technician to come to our home within a hour of calling. Mike called 20 minutes before he arrived as promised. Mike was so professional, very kind, trustworthy and efficient. He explained our garage system was from 2012 and he was happy to either salvage it or update it with a new system. We didnt feel any pressure or get a sales vibe from him. We trusted what he recommended. Mike was also detail-oriented and was so kind to help straighten out and reinforce a metal bar on our garage door that had a dent even before we decided to move forward with the project. He recommended spraying our springs with WD40 once a month because our garage door is made of wood and very heavy. Overall we had an excellent experience!β
