I recently had the pleasure of working with Firstline Garage Door Repair for a garage door installation, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final installation, their team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to detail.
They helped me choose the perfect door to match my home’s style and provided a clear estimate with no hidden fees. The installation was completed efficiently and with great care, and they took the time to walk me through the features and maintenance tips afterward.
The quality of the door is outstanding, and I’ve already noticed a difference in both security and curb appeal. I highly recommend Firstline Garage Door Repair to anyone in need of garage door services. Their commitment to customer satisfaction truly sets them apart!

Alex installed a new LiftMaster Maxum commercial opener for us, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, the job was done with precision and professionalism. He arrived on time, came fully prepared, and handled the entire installation seamlessly. The opener works flawlessly, and you can tell he takes pride in doing the job right. If you need a commercial opener installed, Alex is the guy to call—absolutely top-notch service.

Five stars for exceptional customer service! This professional took the time to thoroughly explain options and provide a comprehensive quote, even though I ended up going with someone else. Their expertise was evident in every interaction, and they were always prompt and courteous. What impressed me most was their genuine desire to help rather than just make a sale. Would definitely reach out to them again for future projects!
