I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with Tip Top GarageDoor- from their responsiveness and scheduling flexibility, to their professional and expert technicians, my experience was fantastic. They came out on short notice, diagnosed my issue, and even spent extra time trying to help me resolve my issue. They were kind, patient, and professional and I’m extremely happy with the quality of work received. I would definitely use them again in the future!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
For new garage door replacements, we offer free on-site estimates with no service fee required.
For service work, we charge a $99 service fee, which covers dispatching a trained technician to your location, diagnosing the issue, and providing a detailed estimate. If you choose to move forward with the recommended repair or installation during the same visit, the $99 fee is waived and applied toward the labor cost of the job.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When a customer contacts Tip Top Garage Door & Gate, we schedule a technician to visit their property at the earliest available time. Once the appointment is booked, the customer receives a confirmation via email and text, including a two-hour arrival window. On the day of service, we send a real-time update with the technician’s estimated time of arrival as soon as they're en route, so the customer knows exactly when to expect us.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Our technicians receive ongoing, hands-on training in garage door systems, including installation, repair, and troubleshooting. Many of our team members come from mechanical or construction backgrounds and have completed manufacturer-specific training for the products we service. At Tip Top Garage Door & Gate, we emphasize safety, precision, and professionalism—ensuring every technician is equipped to deliver top-quality work on every job.
