I was amazed to get a same day appointment. Vincent called to say he was coming and was prompt. He was friendly and quick to assess my needs. He offered three options and explained each. He completed the option I chose, prepared the bill quickly, took my payment-and all this in the midst of the chaos of the lawn service arriving just as he did. I am beyond pleased! Way to go, Vincent!

This week, I finally decided to buy (vs. repair) my garage doors and scheduled estimate visits with three companies. I met with the first one yesterday; Precision today; and the third scheduled for Monday. No need. I made my decision and have signed a contract based on my interaction with the Precision rep (“Jimmy”) who arrived on time and then took his time to do what I saw as a very detailed inspection. He was also very personable and patient with me and my many questions throughout this process, which I appreciated. This job hasn’t even started but gets five stars in my eyes for customer service alone.

Precision had previously worked on our garage doors. This time a very old spring broke. A technician, Thomas, came in less than 24 hours. Not only did he fix the broken spring he also suggested additional important safety measures that were obvious after he pointed them out. Everything was done in about an hour.

Tyler Soni was very professional and courteous. I thought the pricing was high for the work that was done. The sealing on the side of the garage door that Tyler replaced is not laying flush against the door, as I expected. Tyler explained it’s bc the garage door pad is in the way. He said it may take a few days to flatten out and adjust to the positioning. We’ll see. I have a feeling we will be calling you back about this issue. Overall, the communication with the appt scheduling was very good, Tyler was very nice as well as informative, but I’m not totally satisfied with the service.

The entire process took less than 3 hours. Vincent did a quick assessment of our garage door, opener system, and rails. He laid out 4 options for us that all could be installed right away, and gave us the pros/cons. Once we decided which package we wanted he installed it right then and there. Very happy with the service and overall experience!

We have been a customer of Precision for over 10 years. They offer quick response, have good level of communication from onset through repair. The current issue with a broken spring on one of the doors offered several levels of repair to both the immediate issue and also long term fixes for the future of that door as well as our second door. The technician was thorough, explained what issue existed and probable future issues to one or both doors. Ultimately we decided to do the least amount of repair, the one that allowed the door to become functional now, and hopefully will have several years of usage before any other repairs might be needed. The only issue we had was the very costly 3 options that were originally presented: good, better, best. At a vulnerable time to do a repair, the costs seemed very high. So we chose the most "watered down" repair to get the door working. When we need to address future repairs, we hope to be better prepared with the costs and offerings, as we will do our homework and "shop around" other servers.

Precision Garage Door technicians are very professional. They explain everything before they start the work. No surprises. Had a groundhog get trapped in my garage and destroyed some wires. Percision came at the appointed time, and now it's just like new. Best garage door company in NJ.

I have been dealing with Precision for close to 20 years now and they always come through. I have recommended them to a number of my neighbors who are also very satisfied with the service they provide. They were able to schedule an appointment the next day after I called and were able to install a new opener (because the motor went on my old one) within 1.5 hrs after arriving. Tommy S. was my repair technician and he did a great job of finding the problem, providing me with different options, inspecting and tuning up all the parts of the garage door/system, then setting the new opener with remotes, codes, etc. with me. I highly recommend them!

Your whole company was amazing. I called in desperation in the morning of Saturday, May 2 because the spring broke and the door got off track. Your company was nice enough to send John here same day and assess the situation. John explained everything to me and gave me three options of which I took the one to fix everything except the garage, all the tracks and make the garage door operational again. He was very professional, very friendly. I highly recommend this company.

I found Precision Overhead Garage Door via an internet search. I recognized the company logo as I have seen their vehicles in my area before, and at this time I was in need of a garage door repair. One night while watching TV, a sudden and loud bang was heard. It turned out the main spring and cables broke and snapped. The next day while viewing the Precision's informative website, I was able to make an appointment on line for same day service. Technicians Tom and Joshua were assigned to my repair. They contacted me via phone with an ETA, and upon arrival they were able to inspect the door thoroughly and provided a itemized estimate of what needs to be repaired with parts and labor, and gave me several options on how I could proceed where I can make an informed decision going forward. They were professional in their demeanor and appearance. As it turned out I was able to have the necessary repairs made that day as Precision not only has a well equipped company truck, but they accept various forms of payment. A week later, the door is running smoothly and much quieter. Thanks Precision!

I used Precision at my old house in 2025 and 2022 and called them again when I had a problem with my garage door motor. Keven who is with the company 14 years showed up on time accessed the issue and presented 3 options to solve my problem. Given the option I selected he said it would take 2 hours, and he was spot on. Kevin is very personable and a credit to the Company.

Kevin, our serviceman, arrived within the promised time frame. He evaluated the problem with our garage door opener. Due to its age, repairing was not an option. He gave me a choice of three new openers that he had on his truck. Kevin installed a new one in about an hour. He explained clearly how to use it. He was knowledgeable and extremely personable. He cleaned up after the job and took away the old unit. We are very satisfied with our new opener.
