Not a good experience.
My next door neighbor recommended this company, so I did not hesitate to hire them for a repair. The job took about 80 minutes. The bill is $458, of which the labor is $275. The guy was trying to push me to replace the spring which he quoted of $420 plus labor, that is on top of this ongoing repair. That would have made the whole job about $1000, costing more to have a brand new door! When I said no, he was like: if it breaks during my repair, it's going to cost you more. Wow, what an effort to up sell. Also, when I first talked to them over the phone on rough estimate of repair, they say we don't do estimates, we just go in do the job and give you the bill. Sounds very confident and arrogant. I acted on my neighbors' referral so I gave them a blind trust even though I didn't feel comfortable.
Their business name is good that gives them advantage to get first trust. They actually subcontract the jobs. The guy who did my repair is from a different garage door company.
I later checked with another garage door company and received a quote of $260 to replace the springs parts and labor.
I would not recommend Irvine Door Co.
On 9/1-2019, Hamid came and quoted $1588 for repairing 2 toilets with leaking valves. Wow!!! My tenant let him start the job and I stopped it midway through. He charged $860 for replacing the valve in one toilet. On the invoice he put:" repairing water level control system" What a fancy name for $10 valve. I paid handyman $100 for replacing the other valve. The complete job should not cost more than $150.
Mike Diamond has a bunch of crooks preying on unsophisticated people.
Sergei and his guys worked 11 hours and 3 trips to move my 4 bedroom house moving in a day. They are nice, professional, very patient and accommodating to our requests. They gave the lowest pricing among 5 movers we asked for quotes. They showed on time, 4 guys that speak Russian among themselves. Love their accent. Sergei is the first Russian vegetarian I ever met. He doesn't want to kill animals and decided to stop consuming meat. Respect!

Very happy with their service. Tanner is a straight shooter, responds the fastest and gives very reasonable estimate. I needed to clean out all junk in my garage to be ready for the movers, my previous arrangement failed to come. Tanner saved my day. I Sent out request to 6 junk hauling services for immediate pick up. everyone was either unavailable or asking for more details to give quote. Tanner is the only guy who gave a pricing based on my descriptions. And he showed up within a hour. Great young guy, very honest and humble, pleasant to deal with. Highly recommend.
Larry is the best! He is a true pro who takes pride in his work. I am very happy with his work.
