    We called Midstate and they were out later that day. They were very friendly and helpful on the phone. Josh was the technician. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I recommend them to all in the area. I would use them again in the future.

    Josh was very professional and gave me the confidence that he knew what he was doing. He installed new cables and checked everything on the garage door. The garage door now opens and closes completely. I would highly recommend Josh and Midstate Overhead Doors, Inc.

    I called Midstate Overhead Doors to schedule an appt to install perimeter weather seal on my garage door along with my garage remote not functioning. They came out within days! Josh, my tech called ahead and arrived within the 15 minutes he stated. I wasn't planning on replacing the whole garage door opener...I was just having problems with the remote. Josh did some trouble shooting and it was determined I needed a new opener. He was very knowledgeable, polite and friendly. Josh did an amazing job!!!!!!

    I called Midstate Overhead Doors Sunday when I found my garage door spring had snapped. Booking was easy and they were able to get me in next day! Josh my tech came and was very pleasant to speak with. He was also very knowledgeable and fast. Overall great experience. Only negative side is they were running a little behind their arrival window, but at least my door is fixed. Thank you!

    The best service all around. Nick is honest. Install and service was amazing. Door had a user error two months into purchase, Nick had a tech out in 15 minutes and they had it fixed within 5. No need to call anyone else! They are the best!

    I don't know - they never showed up for a scheduled appointment. Services Rendered: I needed a garage door repair and had a scheduled appointment. They never showed up. I called the office and was told the repair person would be there eventually, but no one ever arrived and I never heard from the office again.

    Called to get estimate. The wood where the door attaches to the wood had split and door was inoperable. The 1st person said, "You'd be better off with a new door." After 2 days called them again. They'd lost the paperwork. After 2 more days 2nd person comes, took enough measurements to launch the space shuttle. After several more days I get another estimate of around 800 dollars. 3rd guy comes out, same thing. Finally went to Menards a got 2 pieces of wood. Fixed myself 10 dollars. Then I get a bill for 60 dollars. The rude and insulting rep. said it was a service call, not a "free estimate" as promised on their website and I should have asked for one. On all 3 occasions; no one did any work. I could go on and on.... Out of curiosity, I went to the Macon County Court Records and typed in "Midstate Overhead Doors" in the name search. The results were they were named as plaintiff or defendant in 117 cases in Macon County alone. Go here and type in Midstate Overhead Doors [*** Link removed ***] Ask yourself, is this who I want to do business with? Services Rendered: split wood frame

    Very professional and work was done very well. I will call them again if I ever have a problem with my door. The $591 included a new garage door opener, replacement of all the wheels on the track and labor. I was very satisfied and relieved I don't have to worry about my garage door opening and closing this winter. Services Rendered: Replaced my garage door opener and some hardware.

    Need to follow up Services Rendered: I purchased a "big Deal." the only problem was that they service an area and are not committed to a fixed date for service . I was given three possible dates ajnd told if they didn't come on rhe first date, they might on the second or third. It took a month before we got together

    They were prompt and service was good. Initial quote was lower than actual bill. They had to come back out to fix something. They initially charged me for another service call. I talked with the owner and that second service call was removed from my bill. I would use them next time. Services Rendered: Repaired garage door springs and did check up on door.

    I was pleased with the estimate. He told me the job would cost $145 to replace the spring and that the technician would check both doors to make sure they were both operational. I asked if this would cost more since that door was working, and he said they would just check it at no charge. We set up a service date for any time the next business day. On the date, the technician arrived mid-morning and I met him in the garage. I showed him the door that had the broken spring, and he got to work. I stayed in the front room with the screen separating us while I watched my 1 year-old. Several times during the first hour he evidently knocked on the door, but by the time I got to that back door he had walked away so I thought it was just hammering. After about one hour he knocked on the back door then rang the front doorbell. I found him in the driveway and he told me that the ball-bearings were bad. I said okay, not really sure if this was just informational or if he was telling me that this would be an extra charge. He didn't say anything about it, so I assumed this was a part of repairing the garage door that I had been given the estimate for. After about another 1/2 hour, he knocked again and told me that the rollers were all bad on both doors. This time I asked how much it would cost and he said he didn't know - that he didn't do prices. I insisted so he called the office and was informed that it would cost $3.95 per roller. I told him that I only wanted to do one door because I couldn't afford to go much more over the $145 estimate. He then told me that the job would be difficult because screws were loose and/or rusting. I thought that this was just to inform me that it would take more time. He finished about an hour later. During this time my wife got home and she was thrown off by his manners - knocking on the door and then immediately walking away. The next Friday I got the bill in the mail for almost twice the price ($288). I called the following Monday to ask for an explanation and was forwarded to the billing specialist. She broke down the charges: $145 for the spring repair, $2.95 for 8 rollers, $5.95 for two other rollers, $60 for labor, and another $40 or so for work done on the other door and screws. I pointed out that he never informed me of any of these charges except the $2.95 for 8 of the ten rollers, and that I never wanted anything done to the other door, and that I thought that when I asked for the charge for the rollers I should be informed about the labor charge - that I assumed that the labor was a part of the original estimate and that I would be paying just $40 extra not $143 extra. She told me that most people assume labor to which I asserted that I would have no way of knowing that they charged $60/hr for labor, how long the job would take or that this was how they did business. I also expressed my frustration that they had technicians that did work without informing me about prices - and that didn't even know what the prices were. I was told at this point that she would have the original salesperson call me later to explain the charges. The next day, I received a call from the same person. I asked about the salesperson and was told that he was on vacation. She said that she, the technician, and the owner had reviewed the job and had decided to give me $30 off the price and they would send me a new invoice. I expressed my frustration about still paying significantly more than I had planned for or had been informed about. I let her know that we live on a budget and had only planned on a certain amount for the job, that we didn't have that much extra to pay for the job. At this point she told me that she others to help and that she would have to hang up on me. I received the new invoice for $258 with a note that I could pay this fee in two equal payments and instead of only 10 days, I could have 4 weeks. I felt like I was blown off and cheated. I was given a price estimate, and I understand that things come up, but when asked how much things cost was told that he didn't know the prices. I was told that I should assume certain additional charges even if I already had someone come out to give me an estimate. I felt like they basically sold me a job, did extra non-approved work, and then charged for it. Then while expressing my concerns in a very respectful way, was hung up on. Services Rendered: The provider came to the house to give me an estimate and tell me what I needed done. They came back over after the holiday and replaced the broken spring, 10 rollers, tightened some screws, and lubricated both doors.

    Cleaned up well after job and was friendly and professional. Suggested another option to allow access to garage if door breaks again, but was not high pressure about it. Services Rendered: I could hear the motor running on my garage door opener, but the door wasn't opening. I originally called on a Monday morning and they didn't have time for me that day as it wasn't an emergency. They were able to book an appointment for the next day convenient for me. Technician arrived during appointment window and inspected the door to find the wire on the down limit had pulled apart and when the door did not stop during operation, this caused damage to the carriage. Technician repaired damage and installed new carriage, then inspected, serviced, lubricated, and tested the door. Now works great.

    I called this company because of an ad in the local newspaper for garage doors. My frst call to them went well; however, there was confusion with the receptionist and no appointment was logged by here and I ended up taking a half day off work for an estimate that didn't show. When I called the company they were apologetic and explained why the mix up occurred and we set up another appointment. The second appointment was made at a time outside of their normal time windows to make up for the mixup. The service guy showed up ahead of schedule, and went immediately to work (very little cordiality). He completed the measurements and was on his way within less than 30 minutes. The office person called back late that same day to give me numbers and talk about any special door components that I wanted. We decided I a door that wasn't I stock in my color. I really didn't want to wait so he offered a similar door that was solid white and looked to be in stock. That worked for me, as I figure I can just paint the door to make it even more of what I wanted than a solid color door. The guy gave me the estimate, reduced the price a little due to Angie's List discount (there had been mention of a additional discount due to the mixup - but I understand mistakes happen and didn't remind him of that). He did also check to make sure the item was really in stock. We scheduled the install time. The install guy showed up on time and completed the job a half hour earlier a the stated time, and made sure the sight was left as it was and even wiped of a few door smudges he didn't notice until he was back in the van to leave. Services Rendered: Had a replacement garage door installed.

    The experience went really well overall. The technicians always kept me informed, since one of the technicians ordered the wrong size garage door, which they did apologize for. They were incredibly responsive with any problems that I had, and the doors are really high-quality. I’m very happy with their services. Services Rendered: Midwest Garage Doors installed new garage doors.
