Paul Brinkman's Bio:

Raised in Minnesota, I came to California in the '80's. I was born to do this job, I have the knack for fixing things plus my height comes in handy for working on things overhead. I installed my first Garage Door in 1980 while in the Air National Guard. I have been fixing things for clients my whole life. When I'm not working I enjoy dining out or catching a movie with family or friends. I also like to travel, and am a fan of the TV show Family Guy. I'm often playing Texas Hold 'em Saturday nights. I enjoy working with clients, I always put the customer first. I will not just fix it, I will be sure you are satisfied with the job, and all your questions are answered.

Quickly fixed the sensor alignment, replaced the rollers and programmed the remote for multiple doors. Estimate was given before the tasks started. Satisfied with the service.

Paul from Precision Garage Door came on Labor Day and fixed my garage door which had a broken spring. He assessed the damage and recommended some additional service items. Paul was efficient, got the work done and was on his way. Very good experience, highly recommend Precision Garage Door and Paul.

We received a timely response. The service technician, Paul Brinkman, arrived earlier than the original appointment, and made sure to contact us to let us know he was coming. Paul quickly diagnosed the problem, presented me with a quote and began work right away. He completed the work quickly and successfully. We are very happy with Precision Door.

I am very happy with the service that I received from the technician, Paul Brinkman! He was very professional, thorough with clear explanation about the options of replacing my old garage door motor, especially when discussing the final price that I negotiated with him. Very friendly too! I definitely recommend Paul to my fellow homeowners!

Review:

It appeared that our 9+ year-old garage door opener motor had begun lifting the door much slower than usual starting the last few days of 2022. I thought only the spring might need further tensioning in order to handle more of the work lifting the door, but was not sure. I called Precision mid-morning on December 29th and received an appointment that same afternoon. The technician arrive roughly in the middle of the time window given and called ahead twice to update us with his estimated arrival time. He demonstrated that too little spring tension was Not the problem (our spring apparently has several more years of useful life) and that we needed a new motor as I had feared. Some other door components needed some modest adjustment/alignment/lubrication as well, but we also decided to replace the 22+ year old original wire cables that lift the door since they had begun to fray. The technician walked us through everything he had done, demonstrated all aspects of the new arrangements to us, and programmed the two remotes (one built into our 5 year-old car and a new clip-on visor clicker for our 20 year-old car). My wife and I carried out our own tests of all aspects of the new system that we would be using with the technician to make sure we understood it. We decided not to utilize several of the higher-tech aspects of the new motor system since we did not expect to have any need for them. The entire job took about 2-1/2 hours, but everything tested out perfectly. The work was a lot more expensive than I had hoped (just an inspection, a spring adjustment, and some lubrication), but we feel that all the repair/replacement work performed yesterday was necessary and properly done. We have used Precision every year or two for over a decade to maintain and repair our garage door. This was the first major repair in many years.

I chose Precision door because they responded right away, however i am disappointed with their work. After spending $1000 to get the garage door fixed 2 weeks ago, it started making squealing noise within a week of repair. Now i have to spend additional $250 to get the noise fixed. They are pretty expensive(charging 3 or 4 time more than regular price).

The service I experienced from Precision Overhead Garage Door was as good as service can be. I called for an estimate and got the estimate in same day and in same day a major modification and door system rebuild. Paul the Service person delivered customer service as a high level expert by estimating and installation performance. I am a Facility manager and highly knowledgeable on vendor and service delivery. Precision Overhead Door perhaps is grouped Best In Class. This will be my garage door service vendor.

Review:

My garage door needed immediate attention so I decided to call local companies for a some advice and quote. The first two companies QUICKLY looked and recommended that I replace my motor for several hundreds of dollars. The Precision technician came to my home and did a thorough inspection. He took his time looked at every component of the garage and gave me his honest opinion. I can appreciate his attention to detail. At the end, PAUL BRINKMAN gave me multiple quotes and gave me tools to make a sound decision. PAUL replaced some springs and he made some adjustments. My garage door was fixed and did not need a motor after all. If and when I do need to replace that motor I know who to call first! Thank you PRECISION for sending an experienced technician. THANKS PAUL!

I am over pleased with my service from Paul brinkman! I called on a Saturday and was given a same day appointment for my faulty garage door. Paul call to give me an ETA. He showed up promptly. I showed him the door and had a prognosis and estimate within 5 minutes! He knows his job! He was an expert and did a great job in a timely manner! Another garage door company told me I needed a completely new door! I just purchased the home and didn’t want the expense! I’m am pleased and thrilled that Paul found my problem and made my life much easier! Thank you Precision and big Thanks to Paul!

Paul Brinkman came out on a Saturday. It was afternoon on a very hot day and our garage door opener was not working! This would have left our double wide garage open waiting for repair. He was on time and pleasant to talk with. He explained what was broken and what was needed to get the door to move again. We were very happy with Paul's efficiency and enjoyed meeting him.

Review:

We were a bit concerned when we learned that Paul was not going to get to us until after the 6:00 p.m. end of our appointment time, but mainly because we thought he'd be pretty tired after a long day. NOT! He and his assistant arrived energized and ready to go. He looked at the problem, quoted us several options, we picked one and left him and his assistant to the job. In fairly short order, given what had to be done, he was finished. We tested the door's function together and it performed flawlessly (thus liberating the car that was trapped inside the garage!). Everything was done just as Precision stated on the website it would be. We are pleased customers!

Our repairman Paul was outstanding! Excellent communication and attention to detail. Was able to coordinate getting my garage door fixed fast. I was out of town when my garage door broke. My mother inlaw was the only one there. He was polite and attentive during a stressful situation. Thank you Paul for your care!

My homes garage door and lift system was in need of repair, Paul Brinkman was the technician that arrived to repair and replace with new spring, cables, rollers and a new Liftmaster LED system. His work was clean and timely. Mr. Brinkman also gave a full and through explanation of the new Liftmaster system. The garage door is now quiet to open and close plus it locks securely.

Review:

I was fortunate to have had my garage motor replaced in 2017 by Precision, suddenly I felt vulnerable when the motor failed and pulled the panels off-track. One call to Precision and I received quick response to repair it. Yesterday I needed a consultation after I replaced the door's weatherstripping and I relied on Precision to assist. Within 24 hours, tech Paul Brinkman arrived, assessed the situation and also found 2 cracked hinges(rollers). He replaced them quickly and lubed the motor track. Paul competently and patiently answered all my questions and left me confidently knowledgeable on how to maintain my door. I am quite satisfied with Precision's service from appt booking to finished work and will recommend Precision to friends and family. Thanks so much!

I was so impressed with the service I received from the technician who came out. He was prompt, kind, professional, and understanding of our needs. We are selling this home, so needed just a repair. He did not try and push me into buying something I did not need, but took care of my problem effortlessly. I will highly recommend this company again.

Review:

I simply needed a garage door spring replaced. Was told by the dispatcher that it would be ~$240 to replace. "Paul" came out and tried to upsell my wife on $900 worth of service. When I asked him to simply perform the service I asked for, he refused. He charged me ~$50 for the visit and left without doing anything. It is highly unlikely that I will ever call you for service again!

I placed a call to Precision for a service visit on Monday. I received confirmation a technician would arrive Tuesday between 4-6Pp. Paul B arrived at 4:30p. We discussed my garage door situation. Paul listened, and presented me with 3 options and associated quotes. I selected one and asked when we could start. Paul said immediately. He had with him on the truck all the parts needed for my job. He let me know when he expected to finish, kept me informed along the way, and completed all the work on time. This was one of the best experiences I've had with any service company. I highly recommend Precision Door Service, and will use them for all my garage door needs. Rob K. Orinda

Review:

The tech came to my house is for the money only. He came didn’t do anything I was complaining my GARADGE door not closing it open but cannot closed, all he does is stood by the censor and let me push the bottom on the wall and he said nothing wrong with it, so I ask him so your not gonna do anything I alredy told him that is not closing and he said I need a new GARADGE so basically he just came there to collect the money for him to come to my house, and try sell me a new GARADGE which skyrocket prices. He was gonna charge me almost 1,700 for just a new motor that you can buy at Home Depot for 240. Insane I wish I got his name as soon as I see him I just knew he no good, I use precision GARADGE before I have a good guy fix the problem without hesitate problem solve. But one employee that is not doing a good job will pull the business down.
