After some searching and reading reviews, we decided to contact Same Day Garage Repair for an estimate which provided good information. Raymond came out for the installation and was very efficient.

Highly recommend Same Day Garage Doors Repair if you are searching for a local garage door company in NYC. I know that our garage door never worked so smoothly and quietly as it is working after Martin serviced it. ”

Adrian Garcia, Flowers For You, NYC. 4/1/2021. 5/5 Stars.
“Martin From Same Day Garage Doors Repair was amazing. Set up an appointment. They said they would call the morning of the appointment and they did. Set up a time and Martin arrived when he said he would. Fixed the problem with the sensors, did maintenance and he was done. This experience was so smooth and organized. Just the way I like it. The garage works like new. When we are ready for a new door and/or opener we will call Same Day Garage Doors Repair.”

Jose Wilson, NYC. 3/29/2021. 5/5 Stars.
“I'm not one who write reviews that often, but, how could I not when the service provided by Same Day Garage Doors Repair is a 100 stars service? My garage door hinges broke recently. We had a hanging panel connected to the actual overhead door machine. We basically had to get a new garage (Or that what we thought we need). Quinn answered the phone right away and came out to do an estimate shortly afterwards. He went over the door and the hinges and told us he can repair the door and provide 6 months warranty. Now here is the thing, I think that if someone is willing to offer 6 months warranty on repair, it means that he believe the door will work for much longer than 6 months. I signed the invoice and he started the work. About an hour later he asked me to open the door. I entered the code and couldn’t believe when the door opened up so smoothly. I could tell that Same Day Garage Doors Repair are experts. The door seemed like nothing will make it work again an hour earlier.”

Nina, Astoria, NY. 3/24/2021. 5/5 Stars.
