I grew up in the Beaverton area and attended Clackamas Community College where I completed a two-year program on Automotive Service Technology, learning the fine points of engine work and how to remove and reassemble mechanical components. After graduating, I worked as a wildland firefighter, and later, as a satellite installer, giving me valuable experience as a home servicer working directly with customers.

A Torsion spring is part of your spring line and provides upward lift to balance the weight of a garage door. Not All Torsion springs are the same. There are a large variety of residential garage doors that can weigh just under 100 lbs. to over 600 lbs. A Torsion spring is designed to add torque to the shaft on the spring line where drums on each side have cables attached to them.

Frank called before the appointment to let me know he could come early. I was glad. When he arrived, he introduced himself and explained the processes to evaluate our garage door. He showed me what was in need of repair and gave me a quote. The work was performed and the problem solved. I would highly recommend Frank and Johns Garage Door Repair LLC.

My door broke a spring. John was prompt, professional, and competent. I had called Dave's and left a message but they didn't get back to me (even now, after 2 days). John showed up quickly, verified what part was needed, then left to pick up the part. After returning with the part, he quickly replaced the broken one and lubricated everything, even my other garage door. I highly recommend John's for garage door repair.

The torsion spring on our door busted over the weekend. We called John on a Monday around 9am and he was very quick to reply.
Sent him some pics of the door & spring and he knew right away what was needed.
John arrived when he said he would and had our door repaired and opening more smoothly than it was before the failed spring. What's more, John came out on literally the hottest day ever in Hillsboro.
It reached 115 that afternoon.
I fully expected to try and schedule something with him later in the week knowing how hot it was, but he was here and done within an hour and change.

I called John in the early afternoon and asked if he could stop by and take a look at my garage door that had been disconnected from a bracket that held the automatic opener to the door. I sent him a couple of pictures and he agreed to stop by after work to take a look. He showed up a few hours later, bracket in hand, and replaced it on the spot. He also realign the rollers and gave the hinges a good servicing. I thought I would have to make an appointment for a later time and was thrilled he could take care of the problem right away! The door works better than ever. If your garage door gets busted

Called John to repair the garage door. The coil spring on the door had broke and needed to be replaced. Thanks to John, he replaced it with a better rated part (30K cycles vs the 10K cycles part that was originally installed). He also lubricated most of the moving parts. The only minor complaint I have is that the work got pushed by 3-4 days cause John ordered the incorrect part and then had to get it exchanged. That said, he was open and honest about it and I did not mind waiting a bit to get the job done right. I already recommended John to a friend of mine who needed similar work and will continue

This is the second time John has performed work for us. The first was installing the garage door and the second was replacing the opener. Both times he called back the same day. He was able to schedule us quickly, and is courteous and professional to work with. His work is thorough, with attention to detail. I have recommended John to friends, who had a similar experience.

John completed a fresh garage door opener install in 2 hours and the system functions perfectly. He responded to my quote request very quickly and recommended a good opener. From the time of request I was already scheduled in for a few days later. I will be using his services again if any future work is needed.

Great customer service! 5 stars.John fixed my garage today, and I could not wait to provide a review for John.
I called John the evening my garage motor gave up and he was available to help me out the very next day. The work to replace my garage door opener was done in less than two hours, very quick! He had no issues with me watching and chatting with him when he was working. And he was able to answer all my doubts and made sure I was good before he left. He guarantees his workmanship and backs that up with a 3 year warranty in the event if anything goes wrong with the unit or installation

I normally wouldn't write a review for service person who didn't work for me. However John came for quote on garage door open replacement. He doesn't install the type (wall mount /jacksqrew) I was looking for . Regardless he was informative, professional, easy to work with and provided me list of other highly rated installers to contact. Appreciated his time and helpfulness despite the fact he wasn't getting a job out of working with me. Note- I had contacted him based on all the on line high ratings and reviews .

Great person. Fast response. Quality customer service!
I discovered on Friday morning that my garage door was not working so I called John, left a message, and he immediately called me back twice before noon. Even though I missed his calls, he immediately picked up when I called him back and agreed to come by my house the same day. Let me just say, John is a lifesaver! Even though he is not familiar with a jackshaft garage door, I talked him through the observed problem and he fixed it with no problem. John is upfront, honest and very nice. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is having

I hired John to replace my old garage door opener. I was truly impressed by his entire performance, arriving early the next day on time and ready to get it handled. His manner throughout was very professional and conscientious, assuring that all of the details were taken care of. We're very happy with the result and will always call John first if service is needed. His pricing was about 75% of the other guy I called.

Our garage door came crashing down at 5:00 on a Thursday. Naturally our cars were in for the night. John arrived 30 minutes later and freed them. We found him on-line. He came back the next day with the new springs and installed them. Polite and efficient. Fair price and came after hours with no extra charge. Highly recommend!
AND he answers his own phone right away!

I called John last week with garage door opener issues last week and he was able to come by first thing the next morning. John was professional, polite and even pointed out a few things that could be instantly altered to make the door work better. I felt that the price was quite fair and would highly recommend him.

At 4:57 on a Friday afternoon, as we were trying to get out the door for an errand, I heard a loud popping noise and bang - the garage door was stuck open. A quick call to John's Garage Door Repair and John was on the scene. Less than an hour later, and for only $95, he had repaired the unspooled cables, tightened the spring replaced 4 lag bolts, tightened the rest of the bolts, and adjusted the open and close stops - on BOTH of my garage doors.
Fast, friendly, professional, thorough, and VERY reasonably priced - I couldn't be happier with John. I highly recommend him.

We were recommended John Huey from our siding contractor as part of our exterior renovation project. We wanted to replace the old garage door which was dented. He was responsive, respectful, and professional. He made recommendations about certain doors but wasn't pushy and listened to our needs. He gets so genuinely excited about garage doors and seems to know his stuff. Our garage has a non-standard dimension and is also on a bit of a slope. He was able to find out which door would fit in that area and exactly how it would look from the manufacturer. During installation, he also had to make

John did exceptional job for us at a very fair price. On Sunday after church one of our cars rolled forward and into our garage door. No damage to the car (rugged all wheel drive with reinforced bumpers) but lots of damage to the garage door. It looked bad and also messed up the iron track and rollers. Ugh!
Found John through Yelp. Lots of good ratings and located close by. Called him right away and he answered in person on the third ring. Made an appt. for him to come over early Mon.
Very personable and professional.
The old door was shot and needed to be replaced . We picked a standard (not
