Report
Needed to replace 2 garage door motor openers due to the fact that they were extremely loud and lacking functionality. Alex with Firstline was very attentive to my requests and literally recommended the best openers on the market, which crossed all my concerns. As well, at the Quote appointment, Alex only recommended replacing key parts of the garage door to prolong its life, which is the kind of service everyone desires.
The job was promptly scheduled, and installing was faster than promised. And the price for the service was reasonable. New Openers are ultra quiet, sturdy, and very technologically advanced. I highly recommend this company!!! Kudos to you guys!
