We had a garage door issue and Gil's was the 3rd garage door company that we talked to. Garage…read moredoor company #1 sent a rep that was very pushy and super sketch. He also wanted $600 to lower the door prior to assessing and quoting on recommended repairs. Garage door company #2 sent a rep that was still very aggressive, but at least they were able to get the door in a somewhat functional condition (door rollers back on the rails, cabling back on the drums, spring tension redone) for $200. It was functioning in manual mode, but in automatic, the door would stop 2/3s of the way down and go back up. Company #2 incorrectly diagnosed the problem as an internal issue with the limits on the door opener. They also wouldn't give a straight quote or a recommendation on what to fix. It was more of an a la carte - if you want to replace the springs, $699; cables + drums + springs ($1529); garage door opener $2500+. This would be like going to a car mechanic for squeaky brakes and getting menu pricing of replacing each part of your car. I digress... here's the actual review: Because of the first two companies, I was ready for more shenanigans from Gil's. However, the representative that arrived was a breath of fresh air. Avi examined the area and gave us his assessment. The door was balanced and no visible issues with any of the parts. The Chamberlain wall mount unit was unlikely to be the issue as they are fairly robust units and probably just needed reprogramming. I told him I wanted to try and reprogram it myself and asked for a quote on a replacement in case it was an opener issue. Avi was extremely professional, honest, and taught us a little about the mechanics of the door opening system. Even though we were able to resolve the problem, I would definitely go with Gil's for any major repair. After seeing all three repairmen, I took some time on the weekend to see if there was anything I could adjust. I noticed the rail was two separate pieces of metal and that they weren't aligned perfectly with each other. I used an adjustable wrench to bend the rails a little to fix that. I also added some lubricant to the rails and cleaned the safety sensors as well. Garage door is working like a charm now.

I called and was offered a same day appointment which was nice, even though I had a non-urgent…read moreissue. The technician arrived on time and had called earlier to give me an ETA too. Honestly, the whole appointment was really confusing for me. I'm not sure if it just depends on the technician, but I didn't get that "free quote/estimate" as advertised on Gil's website. I felt like there was a lot of upselling initially, such as pressure to get entirely new cables, rollers, and springs when my initial concern was the gap between the door and floor (potential rodent entry). When I questioned if this was really necessary and that I wasn't interested in pursuing any of those services same day, the technician made comments such as "when it breaks let me know" which was unsettling. Later he did say that I could reuse the rollers and cables I already had to save money which changed the tone of things. He also kept asking personal questions which was uncomfortable. At the end of the appointment, I was slapped with a $721 bill - for what??? Note, if you want to avoid the 3% charge, they recommend paying via Zelle or Venmo (they did refund me the $21 (3%)) since I paid via Zelle. Initially the technician just asked me to Zelle/Venmo him (I didn't even know the amount yet!), but I refused without seeing some kind of invoice first which I did receive in the customer portal minutes later and did pay. Anyways, after the technician had left, I called back to ask for clarification on the services with the price breakdown (learned that it was $175 each for panel repair, motor limit adjustment, springs retention, door rebalanced). I contacted the company again to seek clarification on the services such as whether or not there's standard pricing or if written contracts are typically utilized. I wish there was more explanation on the services. I guess the technician/company could tell I was confused about the situation and at least offered to rectify the situation a few days later which they did. They wanted to emphasize customer satisfaction which I do appreciate. I think the overall experience would've been much more pleasant if everything was in writing and there was actually a (no-pressure) free estimate as advertised. Overall, I don't think Gil's Garage Door & Gate Services has any ill intent and they do value customer satisfaction. Maybe it just depends on the technician. Also recommend buddying up with someone during the appointment to avoid being asked personal questions or reduce possible upselling. Other than that, Gil's work quality seems fine and they are very quick.

40 years ago when we bought our home I installed a roll up garage door. It took over 2 days and a…read morebit of time to set up the extension springs, track support and motor to make sure it would not fall down on the car or kids. After years of bracing metal fatigued panels we decided it's finally time to replace it. Since I have been using CC Door as my hinge and roller parts supplier it seemed logical to have them do the replacement. I considered installing it again myself, but decided to have the experts to do it. I am so happy with that decision! Avo visited multiple times and took meticulous measurements and lots of notes to verify the install plan. Techs Jeff and Chris removed the old door, saved me the bracing I had put on, and installed the new door and motor, which was exactly what we ordered. I'm fairly confident in my DIY capabilities, but I'm amazed at the meticulous and professional work of the CC Door techs! For example: they trimmed the corners of bracing at the rafters and used a level to run the wires for the door switch! I've never seen such attention to detail. And there is no way I could have ever made the final adjustments to the door to get it to operate perfectly, and sit perfectly on a sloped garage floor. They swapped springs and cut cables until it rolled exactly as it should. This perfection is learned from experience and training by techs who really care about doing the best job they can for a customer. No YouTube videos can teach that! I am much more than just satisfied! I can't believe how much quieter and smoother the door now works, and I'm confident this door will last a generation like the old one did. This is one of those projects that when it's completed you say "I am so thankful I hired a professional!!" We opted for the side LiftMaster motor and non-insulated panels (which I don't think are needed in the Bay Area). It was a little over $5k, but I would do it again in a heartbeat, it's totally worth it. The next time we'll need to spend money it will be my when my toddler grandkids own the house, and I'm sure they'll call Contra Costa Door!

Whenever I take on a home project or repair, I make it a point to do my due diligence--getting multiple quotes and evaluating companies based on their thoroughness, transparency, customer experience, and ultimately, the quality of their work. Rene and his team stood out immediately and exceeded expectations in every category. The inspection alone was incredibly thorough. They took the time to walk me through everything in detail, explaining not just what they found but why it mattered and how it should be addressed. I walked away feeling much more informed and confident, which is rare. Their customer service was just as impressive. Rene and his team were extremely responsive--any questions or concerns I had were answered quickly and thoughtfully via email. What really stood out was how much Rene valued communication. He never made me feel like I was asking too many questions--in fact, he welcomed them and made me feel like a top priority throughout the entire process. And the results speak for themselves. The quality of the work was outstanding. On top of that, Rene even identified and treated additional drywood termite areas with care, without charging extra. That level of honesty and integrity is hard to come by these days. It's not easy to find companies you can genuinely trust, especially in this space where it's easy to feel taken advantage of. That's why I truly appreciate professionals like Rene and his team. They are knowledgeable, honest, and take pride in doing things the right way.

Amazingly Josh scheduled their technician Matt for an appointment the next morning (Monday)..! Well Matt was incredibly understanding and quickly assessed the series of tasks to release the door, adjust the spring/torsion and accommodate for the slightly uneven driveway to ensure an even bottom seal. Further, Matt re-aligned the tracks, bracing, inspected and lubricated the rollers. It's still boggling to me that Matt was able to accomplish this repair in less than an hour.! I wish I could give Matt and "Door Pros" 10 stars instead of just 5. I wholeheartedly recommend "Door Pros" to everyone who not only needs a better garage door but also the years of support, service and trust you gain with great products.
