I like your advice about getting estimates from two or three contractors. I recently had my garage door replaced. I'm glad, I went with the middle tier price. It can really help having more than one bid. It wasn't as expensive as I thought it would be.

You wrote that you should ask friends and neighbors for recommendations for a good garage door company. My father's cabin garage door recently stopped working and he's been avoiding having it repaired. I'll have to talk to some of his close friends to see if they have ever repaired, as I know my father trusts their judgement.

I had no idea that you should be present when the work is being done on your garage door. We have been thinking about getting a new garage door for a while, but we weren't really sure what to look for. It would be nice to see how they are doing, and get updates throughout the process.
