Sam and his son Tim were super prompt for first the estimate and then the install. They quoted us the best of all the many quotes we got from all over North County. Prices and friendliness can't be beat! The quality of the door and hardware is impeccable, we are beyond happy with them and their work! It's nice to give business to a family owned and ran company in San Diego especially during a pandemic! They were great about showing up in and wearing the whole time we were near each other their masks too! So I highly recommend Pro Tech Garage Door Services. If there were more stars to give I would!! Thanks Sam and Tim!

I called early morning on a Monday and the owner (Sam) answered right away. After hearing my problem with the garage door he asked me if it was an emergency. I said no. He immediately said he could schedule a diagnosis between 2 & 4 for me. He called me right at 2 and explained he would be at my place within 15 minutes. He was right on time and within a minute of being on site knew what the problem was and told me the cost. No BS. He was amazingly cordial and professional, all while taking less than 45 minutes to make my spring repair and minor other adjustments to the door. And can I just say how nice a gentleman Sam was and he seemed to really care about not overselling us and just getting us a quality product that fixed the problem and got us back on track! Thanks Pro-Tech.

My garage door had problems since day one when the home was built. I've had previous companies come out and none have been able to permanently fix the problem. Last week My garage door opener malfunctioned and did not stop, which caused the track to rip out of the wall. I am fortunate to have found Pro Tech garage door service. Sam came out the following morning. He was on time, had a mask on and was professional. He explained everything and recommended a few things to change out. I know what everyone is thinking..."up sale." But I visually verified the cracked pieces truly needed replacement and the prices were VERY reasonable. And since he had to charge an hour labor to fix my main problem, he fixed these additional items without additional labor costs. Icing on the cake - he diagnosed and fixed the secondary issue that other companies had not been able to fix. It's been 5 days and the garage door is running the quietest ever. Sam is knowledgeable, runs an honest company and has very reasonable rates. Stop searching and call Sam now!

Sam is the absolute BEST. He used to repair our old door. Then installed our new door. And still comes out to service the door, change the code, check on functionality. If you need to find a talented, reliable, and responsive person for your garage door needs, you need Sam and Pro Tech. He's one-of-a-kind!!

Sam was absolutely phenomenal! His pricing was over $100 cheaper than his competitors. He was incredibly kind, conscientious, and professional. His workmanship was impeccable. He was also very diligent about wearing a mask and keeping a safe distance. If you need anything done with your garage, do yourself a favor and call Sam!

Sam is an absolute professional, with a single glance he was able to pinpoint the issue with our door and fixed it for us in less than an hour. His pricing was fair and he was super upfront about everything from the get go. He was conscientious of social distancing and face covering guidelines and was very considerate throughout our interactions. Above all, he was so personable and kind, and he has our business for as long as we are around!

My door fell off the track with 3 rollers coming off one side and the cable got tangled on the other side. I called around And pro tech was able to come out within 30 mins for a free estimate.

Tim and Sam were Fantastic! My old garage door was broken badly, and wasn't worth wasting good money on. I decided to get estimates via Yelp from many good companies. Tim showed up at my home promptly, wearing a mask, and in a clean and organized work truck, explained very clearly all of my options, even showed me examples of the hardware I could have installed, listened to what I wanted and gave me a very fair and competitive quote. After he left, I thought about it and decided that this was the right guy for my job, told him he had the job, and called back the other (probably very good companies), and let them know, thanks but please don't come because I've hired someone.
Tim and Sam were able to fit me in the next day, a Friday, in the afternoon. They showed up on time, with their truck carefully loaded with my new garage door, both wearing masks, and got to work. Their gear setup to get the job done is extremely professional, efficient, and provided great protection for my new garage door. They had already worked 2 other jobs that day, but were efficient, and hard working as if they were fresh on the day. Both Sam and Tim answered the minimal curiosity questions I had, and also asked me my preferences.
They disassembled and loaded onto their truck my old door ( I asked them to leave the old opener since it was still good, and thought I could sell it or give it away ), and then proceeded to assemble my new door's hardware, tracks, rollers, springs (by the way, because I selected them outright, Tim gave me the red hardware springs, and sealed bearing roller upgrade for free), and then carefully assembled to door, and hung the lift motor.
They finished up on time, cleaned my new garage door of any grease or dirt that will inevitably happen during the assembly process, and then proceeded to show me how to use my new opener ( a belt-drive Liftmaster - soooo quiet and nice to hear! ).
Before leaving, they double-checked clean-up of any nuts, bolts, etc, swept, and then asked me if I had any questions before leaving, and also re-assured me that they would answer anything that I might think of later.
I could not be happier with their Excellent business style, work processes, straight forward way of conducting business, integrity, hard work, and final result!
I am thrilled with my beautiful, new, quiet running garage door. It looks, sounds, and operates Great!

Look no further! Quick response, very knowledgeable, fair pricing, true professional in the industry.
I recieved outstanding service from Pro Tech garage door from start to finish. Sam and Tim are very personable and did an excellent job on the installation of my 2 garage doors. When done explained everything so I had an clear understanding of features and operation.
I did my homework and shopped around but in the end Sam spent time with me during the estimate and was very helpful answering any question I had throughout the process even before hiring him for the job.
No need to shop around if you want the best service around hire Pro Tech garage doors you will be impressed!

Pro Tech is my go to garage door company. They are so easy to get a hold of and they usually come within a day or two. Sam and Tim have come to my previous condo as well as my new house to service my garage doors.
They always leave things better than they found it. I had replaced a lock and key mechanism and didn't have the tools to squeeze the S hook into place and they fixed my crazy zip tie work. They also just recently installed a new garage door lifter that is so quiet, I've had computers run louder than my garage! I've been so excited each time I've used my garage which seems pretty lame.
Since I have a brand new lifter, I hope to not need to call for garage repair too often but if I do they will be my first call. They're an honest group and I have really appreciated the the services.

Thank you Sam and Tim @ Pro Tech Garage door for a wonderful job on our garage door opener. Very honest we expected to have to replace the whole unit and they fixed it. I would definitely recommend their company to anyone.
2019-02-28
I was so impressed by Sam - he was an absolute pleasure to work with because he showed up on time, was so knowledgable, and did a great job. So often I feel wary of contractors but I really felt like he was honest and did an incredible job. Highly recommended

We were looking for a garage door certified technician to fix our garage door. We found Pro Tech Garage Door Service and read their great reviews. We decided to make an appointment to give them a try. Sam, the certified technician gave us a quick respond and came right on time. He is very professional and courteous. He checked what the problem was and solved it in less than 5 minutes. He is very honest and trustworthy. We greatly appreciate his service. We are very proud of his job and service. We proudly recommend him. Thank you very much Sam.
2018-09-25
Sam was prompt, hard working, and honest. He was very efficient and didn't try to sell us more than we needed. We asked questions and he gave us suggestions and recommendations. He was very professional and thorough throughout the entire job. He will give you and bid and start work immediately if you are interested. I can't believe how easy it was to complete the repair. I usually dread repair men, but would refer Sam to anyone looking for dependable honest service. Thank you, Sam!

I called Pro Tech early Monday morning and was able to get service within an hour. Sam showed up right on time. He was efficient,professional, and very knowledgeable. Sam explained every step of the process in detail, so not to question the work being done. Sam was a real pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend Pro Tech Garage Door Services to anyone that is in need. Sam deserves at least 6 stars or better.

I called ProTech early on Monday morning , and was able to get service for my garage door within the hour. Sam showed up on time, and was very efficient, professional , and very knowledgeable. He replaced the broken spring, and updated the rollers along with a overall tune up of all moving parts. I would highly recommend Pro Tech Garage services to anyone in need of repairs. Sam is by far the best contractor I've had the pleasure to work with. Pro Tech definitely lives up to all the great reviews. i would rate his service 6 stars or better. Great Job.
2018-03-19
Sam is a pleasure to work with. He was forthright and fair with us. He gave us a great quote, arrived on time within the hour as promised on a Sunday evening no less, and did excellent work. Our garage door was repaired and operational in no time at all. I highly recommend his services and will call on him again.
2018-03-15
Sam at Pro Tech Garage Door Service was amazing. We have been having trouble with our garage for months and it was driving us crazy. I called Sam on the recommendation of another friend and he came out that same day. He was efficient, professional, and very knowledgeable. Our garage was fixed within an hour and we haven't had any problems since. I would highly recommend Sam and Pro Tech Garage services to anyone. Thanks Sam!

When I first bought my house I needed help with my garage door and opener. I called a company to fix it and they sent Sam. He quickly fixed my issues and took the time to explain to me what was going on. He advised me on what future maintenance would probably be necessary. I made sure to call him back to solidify the installation of the new opener that had a few problems. Sam returned and fixed the problem without issue.
Five years later, now, I had a problem with my opener. I called Sam. I didn't call the company I called before, I called him. I learned then that he had started Pro Tech on his own. And I am glad for it.
He was in my garage very quickly and fixed my problem and took care of my long deferred maintenance very affordably. He is considerate, he is efficient, he is knowledgable. I would not call any one else.
It is so rare that you can find anyone trustworthy especially on their first visit, or when you really need the help soon. I am so fortunate I found Sam when I did. Now, I don't worry about garage door issues. I have the one person who I trust to handle them well and affordably.
Sam is the BEST!

Wednesday was the SECOND time I've used Sam. He is the BEST! The first time I bought a garage door from Sam was for my in laws. We surprised them and he showed up early before they got off work and was done so fast! They absolutely love their garage door!
The second time was this last Wednesday. I accidentally hit my garage while backing out. It came off the tracks and bent a little. I thought it was going to cost me a fortune to fix and called Sam in a bit of a panic. He came out within an hour, fixed the garage door by putting it back on the track and fixing the dent. He even went as far to look at the garage door and fix things that might cause future problems. With how quick he came to service our house and he charged us practically nothing, I would definitely say he is by far the best in town! Thanks Sam, our little family really appreciates all your hard work and prompt response. It's so awesome to see a local business man hungry for business yet striving to please his customers. Thanks again for taking good care of us!
2018-03-15
Sam with Pro Tech has to be one of the nicest, most honest people we've done business with in a long time. The first time was New Year's Day 2017 & then today. Both times he came quickly & fixed our problems without delay. His prices are great too. He's our go-to guy and you should give him a try if you need garage repair or replacement.
Thanks, Sam. Dede & Steve
2018-03-15
Great service. Great guy. Came out the same day and replaced our garage door opener. Tightened our garage's metal bars (we have the old school door) free of charge. Would highly recommend. Will use him again when we are ready to replace our garage door. The best!
2018-03-15

2018-03-15
Same as most the other reviewers I was browsing reviews for someone to help me install my garage door opener and found Sam and his Pro Tech business almost immediately because of his high ratings. Sam was amazing! I called, he answered, and about 2 1/2 hours later he was at my condo and about an 1 1/2 hour later he had my garage door opener installed perfectly. Not only was the installation flawless he also took the time to explain the options for the unit I had previously purchased and how to use them. Easily the best contractor I've every worked with and super affordable. I will be recommending him to anyone I know with garage door issues and will always use him in the future
2018-03-15
Sam was a true professional. He inspired confidence, stood by his work, and did not charge me to give me an estimate. I found Sam to be honest and fair. He arrived on time, worked quickly to solve my garage door problem, and explained everything he was doing to me clearly. I selected him because his Yelp reviews were outstanding. I was not disappointed. He lives up to his good reputation.
2017-12-29
Sam did an excellent job. I have hired a lot of contractors to do work on my house. Sam is one of the best. He was extremely conscientious. He is very knowledgeable about garage doors. He explained all of my options and genuinely sought to install what would work best for me. He went above and beyond. I got estimates from 2 other reputable companies and Sam beat them both. Plus he was able to get my door installed within 2 days of doing the estimate. I highly recommend him.
2017-11-25
On a Friday night my door fell out of its tracks because I had a broken spring and tried to use to door. I thought i was going to need to wait until Monday for a new door. Pro Tech came within an hour and fixed this door perfectly...wow! I'm very pleased with this company and how professional Sam the tech was.

I recently had Pro Tech Garage Door Service install a new garage door at my home. I would highly recommend this company as they are very professional and thorough with their work. The owner (Sam Pastella) explained in great detail what service was going to be done and how. Very knowledgable and reliable!
Highly recommend!!!

Sam is professional and courteous, does an excellent job and stands by his work. I recommend him without reservation.

I'm getting married next week and I have so much on my mind. I got in my card to leave and when I pushed the button on the remote my garage door would only go up a couple of inches. I really needed to get my car out of the garage quickly so I called Pro Tech Garage Door Service and Sam answered and assured me that he could arrive within an hour so I went ahead and booked the appointment. Sam arrived in about 30 minutes and was such a nice guy right off the bat. He showed me that I had a broken spring and that my old system only had one spring and that he suggested that I now have two springs installed. It all made perfectly good sense to me so I agreed to have the work done. He repaired my door in 30 minutes and I was able to make all of my appointments today! Thanks Sam, I'll be happy to recommend you to everyone!
2017-07-02
Sam dropped his business card off after driving by the house and seeing my broken garage door. I am so happy he did! He is such a nice guy! Didn't mind working around the clutter, did a great job fixing door and is able to refer me to their repairmen for my other projects. I highly recommend Sam to everyone.
2017-06-29
This is not the first time I have used Sam to do my garage doors. He had done a great job and I would recommend him to anyone. He is an honest individual and he has always given a great customer service.
2017-06-26
The most honest professional that has worked in my home in ladera ranch for the 13 years I have been here.
If only the world had more Sam's.
I really think you should just try him and make your own judgement but what i can tell you is that since living here I have been over charged and lied to so much I lost trust in anyone coming to my house anymore to do work.
Thank you Sam for allowing me to open my mind again that not everyone hates their work and just wants a pay check.
2017-06-22
Excellent workmanship! Highly recommended! Sam went above and beyond what needed to be done to make sure that my garage is working at peak performance. Very friendly and courteous as well. He answered all the questions I had about my new garage opener and showed me what to do when certain situations come up. This company really is a gem! I'm so glad I hired them and you will be too.
2017-06-22
Sam did a great job !
Would definitely use Protech again !!
2017-06-20
Sam of Pro Tech Garade Door is fantastic! First of all his professionalism is refreshing! When he quotes a price, you can trust it. He knows his products, he understands how to provide service that is above and beyond! I would recommend him 100%!
