"On 6/8/11 I called and left a message.  I was called back within minutes and told someone would be at my house on 6/10/11 to look at my garage door.  I met Neil on 6/10/11 who looked over the existing door and hardware and gave me an estimate to replace everything and add the garage door opener.  Neil said he would call me when a date could be set for the installation of everything.  I was called on 6/14/11 and was told someone could be at my house on 6/15/11 for installation. On 6/15/11 I met Mike who was just finishing the installation of my new garage door when I arrived home.  Everything went smooth and everything is working great.  I would use this sompany again.  Very user friendly and professional."

"Very well. Good suggestions, hints on daily care, time spent checking repairing. Communicated very well. Polite. I did not want to answer question regarding money paid or were services performed. This question is not clear. Of course, service was preformed. Money paid was relative to parts and/or labor. So this items needs to be divided out."

"Todd from Empire Overhead Doors (EOD) did an excellent job in repairing/adjusting our garage door. He even explained exactly what the issue was (sensor and left-side eye) and how he went about fixing it. We will use and would recommend EOD to others in the future."

FAQs for garage door opener repair or adjustment projects in Schenectady, NY

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.
