"The handyman Les was personable and friendly  but he erred in following a couple of the directions.  Also he was an exceedingly slow worker.  I trusted him to do the job right in a timely manner.  It  certainly didn't 'go down' that way.  We both failed to watch the installation DVD.  Instead he studied the instruction manual and did what it said (I hope), in such a slow manner that he ran the clock out to four hours.  After his departure, over the following two days,  I read the instruction manual (to have a better idea of the unit's operation)  and also viewed the DVD.  There is <strong>no way</strong> this project should have taken four hours!  More like two hours, maybe three, max,  if unfamiliar with the brand and product.  I <strong>sorely regret</strong> that I did not 'ride herd' on him and help him and push him along.  I should have watched him and the clock like a hawk.  Furthermore,  I should have told him at the beginning that I am with Angie's list and that I wanted the project done in less than three hours.  (Oh, hindsight is 20/20.)   <br />  I  have felt mental and emotional anguish over this experience  for 48 hours afterwards.  I 'm writing this report for the sake of some kind of closure. <br /> This is the first and last time I will use this particular company.  I will not  recommend him to anyone. <br /> <br /> <strong><em>UPDATE:</em></strong>  He addressed my concerns and issues and reached an amicable resolution.  Involved with that was making restiution with regard to what I considered an overcharge by giving me a refund.  I have changed the letter grades as a result of our resolution. <br /> <br />  "

"We began to prepare to lift our house in May, 2011, put in a new basement and add an addition while also gutting the entire first floor and the second floor bathroom of our 100 year old farmhouse. Sam started by repairing sill so the house could be lifted and has helped gut, move walls, build the addition, add new walls, windows, doors, a wood burning fireplace, and so much more. Due to circumstances beyond our control, Sam ended up doing the majority of the building by himself including framing in the entire basement, addition and all structural changes. We ended up replacing the sill around the entire house, insulating, residing, and rewiring everything. Sam has done almost all of the carpentry and finish work of trimming it out. He has always been prompt and pleasant to work with. He listens to what you want and works with you to accomplish things and does not get upset over the constant changes that are an inevitable part of working with an old house and finding all the "patch jobs" and mistakes of former owners or workmen.He has even built pieces entirely from scratch such as my cedar lined window seat and a clothes chute between floors from scratch with no specific plans, but just an idea from my head. He widened all of our doors and helped us to make our entire first floor and basement handicapped accessible. We replaced every door in the house, all the cabinets, reconfigured floor plans, changed floor coverings and moved windows and closets. Sam has worked very well with all the other contractors who came in to do wiring, plumbing, tiling, cabinets and landscaping. He even did the computer work to come up with floor plans when we only had my hand drawn pictures of what i wanted. We are not finished yet and he is still trimming out the final rooms and his finish work is excellent."

FAQs for garage door installation and replacement projects in Kankakee, IL

Yes, you can replace just one panel if your door is sectional and the damaged panel is available. Most modern residential garage doors have four to six horizontal panels that can be individually replaced. However, finding an exact match becomes challenging for older doors or discontinued styles. For doors over 15 to 20 years old or with multiple damaged panels, a complete door replacement might be more practical and visually consistent.

Minor dents or cosmetic damage can often be repaired without replacing the entire panel, potentially saving you money. However, if the damage affects the door's operation, security, or structural integrity, replacement is often a better investment. 

For extensive damage to multiple panels or older doors where matching is difficult, full door replacement might be more economical in the long run than multiple individual panel replacements.

Your garage door panel might be repairable if the damage is superficial and doesn't affect functionality. Small dents in aluminum panels, minor scratches, or cosmetic issues often don't require full replacement. However, replacement is often necessary if the panel is warped, has large holes, shows extensive rust, or affects how the door operates. A professional garage door technician can evaluate the damage and recommend whether repair or replacement offers the best value and durability.
