My garage door spring broke and my car was completely trapped inside, so I was in a real bind. I messaged Palms Garage Doors on Yelp and they responded extremely quickly. Peter arrived right on time as scheduled and got straight to work. He fixed the door efficiently and professionally, and best of all, there was zero upselling. They did a fantastic job and I wouldn't hesitate to call them again. Highly recommended!+0Posted on Yelp![]()

Total lifesavers. Our garage door spring snapped unexpectedly and trapped our car right when we needed to head out. I reached out to Palms Garage Doors through Yelp, and their response time was lightning-fast. Peter showed up right when promised, diagnosed the issue instantly, and had the spring replaced and the door running smoothly in no time. Honest pricing with zero annoying upselling. Excellent service from start to finish--five stars!+0Posted on Google![]()

My garage door failed to lift all of a sudden on a Saturday over the labor day weekend. Got a reference and called the Palms Services. The technician showed up on Sunday morning around noon and quickly diagnosed the broken spring torsion. We agreed to upgrade the spring to a heavy-duty, standard dual-torsion spring and also replace the 10 wheels in the rail. The total price was on the higher end (from my research) but it is a holiday weekend and an emergency service request. The technician shared some maintenance knowledge with me and got everything fixed within an hour. No complain.+0Posted on Google![]()

These guys responded to my online request immediately and within about three hours I had a service tech show up at the house. He was very thorough and explained to me how garage door operations work and how my broken springs fit into the big picture. He also explained that since I have wood doors, they’re very heavy or put extra burden on the springs so I should really think hard about my repair. He gave me three pricing options good better, and best and I chose the best even though it was the most expensive. My installer was very professional very friendly and was out of the house within about 90 minutes. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience.+0Posted on Google![]()

My garage door was making a lot of noise lately. I reached out to another company who gave me an unexpected solution, asking me to change a lot of things and wanted to charge me a lot of money with unnecessary upsell. I reached out to Palms and they responded quickly. Illia came out on a Sunday, super pleasant and knowledgeable. He explained my garage door issue and I only needed a tune up which he did. The door is now a lot quieter and operating more smoothly. I really appreciate his honesty and no upsell what so ever. I will use Palms when I need to replace my opener as they are local business and know how to treat their customers.+0Posted on Yelp![]()

Our experience with Palm Garage Doors was fast and professional. The company's office returned my inquiry almost immediately. The next day their technician, Illia, arrived on schedule. He quickly diagnosed the issues with our non functioning garage door, and detailed the various options for repairs, and pricing for each. We chose the option that worked best for us, with upfront pricing and warranties. Illia was very knowledgeable, and within a couple hours, we had a "new" working garage door. We are very pleased with our experience with Palm Garage and Illia.+0Posted on Yelp![]()

One of the rollers on our garage door came off track recently causing issues with opening and closing. I found Palms Garage Doors on Yelp. They had excellent reviews by customers and a 4.9 star rating. We gave them a call and were told they could be here today between 12:30pm and 2:30pm. Elad was very punctual and arrived at exactly 12:30pm. He took a look at our garage door and assessed the situation. The bolts on our garage door needed to be tightened. Many had become loose over time. He increased the tension of the spring coils because our garage door off balance and he replaced all the metal rollers within the metal track. He said it would take him about 45 minutes to fix. Everything worked out great. He did exactly as he had promised and with great efficiency. He made sure to show us, before he left, what got replaced. The garage door opens and closes so much smoother and better than before. It's much quieter too. Elad, was very professional and kind. He did an amazing job fixing our garage door. My husband and I appreciated that he could fix it the same day we called. We will definitely reach out to him in the future if need be, for our garage door needs.+1Posted on Yelp![]()

I contacted Palm through Yelp for an estimate on my garage door opener, and Elad arrived within an hour. Instead of trying to upsell me on a brand new unit, he gave me a reasonable quote for a repair--with the promise that if he couldn't fix it, his troubleshooting time would be completely free. Thanks to his expertise, Elad pinpointed the exact problem and had it resolved in just 20 minutes. I am incredibly happy with their service. They offer quick response times, in-depth knowledge, and refreshing honesty. It's great to find a company that actually fixes the problem rather than making up reasons to replace expensive equipment.

I have high expectations doing things with high quality and Palms is one of the few companies that could meet my high expectations. What sets Palms apart from most other companies is that they have professional project managers who make sure the customer is happy with the job. I get slow responses (hours) from other companies about my concerns and questions before vendor selection but Palms was very quick to respond to my phone / text messages within minutes. For example, I had concerns about how my doors would look centered even though my door openings were smaller than standard size doors and risks looking off-centered. ******* was very responsive to my concerns and ensured me the installers would have ways to make the door look good. When the installers came, they at first refused to center the door because he didn't know how to do it and was continuing to install the door off-centered but when I quickly called/texted ******* mid-job, within minutes she was able to reach out to the installer's supervisor who rushed to my house, took a look at the situation and immediately came up with a smart way to make the doors centered. I was impressed with both ******* and the installer's supervisor. The doors looked great and I would absolutely recommend Palms to others.Posted on Angie's List![]()
