Had AOD replace my garage door broken springs after going through my home warranty program and they were chosen to do the work. However, after service was complete, I kept receiving a bill from AOD when I had spoken to my warranty program multiple times and they ensured that the work was covered. Reps from AOD kept telling me that normally that work isn't covered by warranty companies, without actually calling themselves. Very poor customer service and just laziness to keep sending overdue invoices when they just needed to submit the completed work request to get paid by the warranty company.

These guys were AMAZING! Fast, knowledgeable, identified and fixed the problem right away! Love the quietness of the new opener! Plus, I can now have Amazon Prime packages delivered inside my garage. Definitely will use these guys for any future door/opener needs!

Both Torsion springs snapped in our garage and our car was stuck inside. No matter what I tried I just could not get the door to open manually. I called American Overhead Door and within a few hours a technician came out and fixed everything. Great experience from the moment I called to when the technician left. 100% would recommend to anyone.

Absolutely great service from this company. We had an issue with our existing door. While scheduling the repair, I we also asked for the cost of a new one. The technician was great and fixed our door the next day. We also had a quote for a new door with opener. When there was a delay with receiving the door, they let us know right away. I was actually expecting some sort of delay because I requested a non-stock door and everything is delayed with Covid manufacturing/delivery.
The door arrived sooner than the delayed expectation date and they installed it right away. Vey polite technician removed my ancient door and installed the new one. I did not realize how decrepit my old door really was, and super loud. I cannot even hear this door go up or down. I am happy every time I look at the door. Great Job!

My order came in early which was a wonderful surprise! I had the best installer who left my garage cleaner than he found it. Great value, great service and overall a great experience.

Had garage door replaced. Cody did a great job, besides doing the door, he fixed a few support issues and did a thorough clean up afterwards. Considering prices we got from other companies, the price for this company was very reasonable. Would definitely recommend.

I recently had a technician out to service my door. He explained what the issue was, gave me maintenance pointers, and it has been running smoothly and quietly ever since. Great all-around experience. Highly recommend.
