I couldn’t be happier with my experience with The Garage Door Man! From start to finish, the entire team was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly easy to work with.
I call another company out 1st and they were complete thieves. I garage door was not opening and closeing and showing an error code. This guy comes out and tells me i need to replace the whole garage motor and he could do it for $1,600. After i picked myself off the floor i thanked and sent him on is way. He was still trying to price gouge me by saying if you pay cash I'll do it for $1,300 and i said no thank you. He came back ok go to Home Depot and buy a new one with them and I'll install it for $300. Again, i asked him to leave. I called The Garage Door Man and Jim was extremely helpful over the phone and walked me through some trouble shooting 1st before booking the appointment. When my appointment came the tech Juan showed up on time, clearly explained everything that needed to be done, and took pride in their work. He said that a part just needed to be replaced and it would be $30 and the service call would be $150 so grade total $180. Sold!
The quality of his work was outstanding, and the attention to detail really stood out. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and it’s clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority for them.
If you’re looking for a company you can trust to do the job right, I highly recommend The Garage Door Man. Excellent service, great communication, and exceptional workmanship. I would absolutely use them again!

These guys are top notch! Had a torsion spring break on a Friday after hours. Jim called me over the weekend to set up a time for the upcoming Monday. Guys arrived on time, replaced both springs, and lubricated hinges, etc. Operates and sounds better than ever. Very professional and reasonably priced. Thank you, Hector and Gino for the repair. Appreciate your responsiveness Jim. I'll definitely be recommending you guys. Thanks!
Honest, knowledgeable, and very easy to work with. High recommended for any garage door need!
After six months of pulling my hair out with a garage door that wouldn't close properly, we almost got taken for a ride by another company trying to sell us a whole new unit. But then we found Garage Door Man. They walked us through some easy troubleshooting over the phone, and when they came out, the guy figured out it in minutes that it was just a missing bolt! It was fixed affordably, and I couldn't recommend them more for being honest and great at what they do.
This guys is a wizard! I’m so glad he came out. Tried by best on YouTube but couldn’t figure it out. I was fully dialed in after a 30 minute visit. Call them !
Wow. My garage door opener stripped out... I bought a new opener from Home Depot and was going to have their contractor replace it. I thought about having my springs replaced at the same time and the Home Depot Company quoted me $750 just for the springs only. I thought that was expensive so I looked and found The Garage Door Man in Escondido. I called him and got a price for $395 (for the springs - $350 less). He came over and installed the springs, and found the "Trolley" mechanism was stripped out and I didn't need a new opener. So he's going to replace the Trolley and I'm taking back the opener to Home Depot and getting my money back. So The Garage Door Man just saved me $418 for the new opener / $200 labor for the other company to install it / and $350 for the price difference of the springs. Holy crap he saved me $968.00. I can't believe it. I'm totally stoked. Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!! If I could give 10 stars, I would.
I cannot express enough gratitude for Jim and his incredible team at Garage Door Man. From the moment I contacted them, their honesty and integrity were evident. Jim took the time to thoroughly inspect my garage door issue, explaining every detail transparently. Unlike other companies, there were no hidden fees or unnecessary upselling attempts. Their professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction are truly commendable. Thanks to Garage Door Man, my garage door is working flawlessly again. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of garage door repairs or installations. Jim and his team are the epitome of trustworthiness and reliability in the industry.
Responsive and friendly. Quality of work, acceptable. Pricing, sketchy. I called Jim in the morning and told him I had a broken cable. He told me it would cost around $195 to repair. He sent Hector over who immediately re-quoted the job at $480 and wouldn't budge. He listed all the things that needed to be done which were rudimentary. Cost of materials for about 20' of cable and some crimping was probably only about $20 tops. They were done in an hour. Be advised, bait and switch.
