I bought two new garage door openers. They work well, they were installed quickly, and we are pleased with the entire experience.

Real professionalism! John helped us select the right replacement garage door, covering all the options, pros and cons. We could not be happier with the new door, and the cost was reasonable.

John from Cal-Western garage doors is a true professional. Not only did he give us a competitive quote, he showed up exactly when he said he would. When he came back to install the new garage door, he called to let us know when he would be there. I highly recommend John to anyone also because his workmanship is top notch!

One of our automatic garage door openers malfunctioned. We gave Cal-Western a call based upon Yelp reviews, and John provided us with great communication and fast professional service.

John came over promptly and did a fantastic job replacing a broken torsion spring. Price was great as well. Will be using him again if I ever need any further service.

Best company I've dealt with in a long time. When they say they will be there, they are there. Extremely polite and know exactly what they are doing. The owner is wonderful. He is kind and on time. I have recommended them to three people. If you have or need a garage door fix or complete installation they are the people you should call.

Fantastic service and the best price I could find. I got three different estimates, and I’m so glad I went with Cal Western doors. We updated our old garage door to a modern three panel carriage style look and we absolutely love it. I don’t write reviews very often I’m writing this one voluntarily because they deserve all five stars and you should definitely check them out.

Excellent service and fair price. Was on-time for the appointment and got the job done quickly. The spring on the roll-up door broke and I couldn't get the garage door to open to get the car out of the garage.

The springs on our garage door broke yesterday. We emailed John, he called within 10 minutes with a quote and an appointment for today. He came on time, very courteous, got to work right away. The door was fixed in 20 minutes. Very reasonable rate. Very happy!

Amazing service by John. He's always available and willing to provide you an honest opinion. He will repair the door if possible and give you a very competitive price if needs to be replaced. I've used John multiple times and every time he's performed a door replacement it's been perfect. Highly recommend!

Several years ago John replaced an old garage door at our house and was willing to work around the other construction we had going on at the time (I made things complicated for him) and he recently came back and installed a new opener. He is a super nice guy, responded quickly, and his work is top-notch. In both cases I was shocked by the bill--super affordable!

On time, good price, excellent job. John saved me hundreds by repairing my opener instead of replacing it. New door is perfect. He shows great knowledge, is personable, and even went out of his way to help my neighbor with his garage door adjustment.

John not only does quality work but his rates are very reasonable. He is responsive via phone, text, email, answering message left on his website, etc. He stands behind his work. My experience has left me very satisfied and highly recommend this company for your needs.
