You can rely on Precision Overhead Garage Door of Madison to provide the type of service you would expect from a locally owned company, while enjoying the security that doing business with a National Franchise company can bring. Each location is owned & operated as an individual franchise. Our slogan is "We Fix Garage Doors Right"? and we spend a lot of time defining and redefining what that means to us as a company and what it means to you as a consumer. This singular focus has led us to pioneer the industry standard warranty for garage door repair and a training program for technicians that is second to none in the garage door industry.
"We were having issues with our garage door - thought we needed a new spring. Precision recommended we replace door and motor. We hired and paid them to replace both. They replaced the door. When we continued to have problems with door not opening/closing fully, Precision sent another worker out to check it and said our motor was very old. We reminded them that they had just replaced our door and motor. They discovered they hadn't replaced the motor. Eventually our motor was replaced. Currently it works the way it should. Concerns - the main problem we asked them to fix - the motor, was not replaced. Our springs took on more strain while the garage door was opened and closed by the old motor they left. Work did not meet expectations - quality or timeliness. Loss of time & loss of access to fully use our garage made for inconveniences. Expensive product. Quality and work did not meet the cost. With our persistence, we got them to eventually fulfill our contract."

We are recognized for our strong emphasis on energy efficient and sustainable designs, and a commonsense approach to home performance and green building techniques. TDS is a full-service design-build contractor that employees 15 community members and has been in business since 1985.
"TDS provided excellent quality and service from start to finish. They removed the old brick chimney that was between the kitchen and dining room, and they did such an excellent job containing the demo debris that I didn’t even have to dust after! They also protected our existing flooring very well. You also can’t even see the patching on the ceiling. And at the end of the job, the PM let us know of a couple other issues he spotted in the attic (replacing vents) but didn’t pressure us in any way to sign them on for another project. I highly recommend them!"

"We recently built a custom home with CCH of W and were wry happy with our experience! Sam and Brea were super helpful as designers, also helping us stay on budget! Brian was always a phone call or an email away, and happy to help us fix any issues. We would hands-down build with them again, but plan to enjoy our new home for many years to come!"

"I chose a local business, despite the higher cost because they had good ratings. What I got was a sloppy, rushed job. From ground debris painted in to drips on the deck boards, from paint on the windows to a horrible re-caulking job. Yes, the owner was responsive but after two 'fixes', the very obvious issues still existed. It should not be on the customer to find the issues. I feel like I could've done a better job. So disappointing."

Garage door costs range somewhat broadly, depending on the type you choose. However, you’ll also need to factor in labor costs, which vary from state to state and between pros.
A chain driven operator costs between $150 - $250. For a belt driven operator it is usually $160 - $450. A screw-driven operator is between $250-$500.
To keep garage door opener repair costs down, you should check that the whole apparatus is working normally on a regular basis. This means making sure that the tracks of your door are greased and fully operational, and that the door itself is in good condition.
Installing a new garage door opener runs from $250 to $500 at least. If your repair costs are close in cost to that range or if your garage door is 10 to 15 years old, you should probably replace it instead of repair.
However, it’s a better idea to fix your garage door opener if it’s less than eight years old or if repair costs are less than replacing.
Garage door openers usually last between 10 and 15 years. However, several factors contribute to how long your garage door opener can last. If you schedule regular inspections and practice proper care, you can maximize your garage door opener’s lifespan, saving money in the long run. As a general rule, practice the same care for your garage door opener as you would the door itself.
These tell-tale signs indicate your garage door is going bad, including:
Not closing or opening at all
The door reversing when you try to open and/or close it
Inconsistent opening and closing; more noise than usual (grinding, scraping, or banging)
Sticking or stalling when you try to open or close it
If you experience one or more of these signs, it’s time to call a professional garage door repair service.
