Project Overview
This project was completed for Karen A. in Federal Way.
After the garage door opener stopped working, I first helped troubleshoot the issue over the phone at no charge. When it was clear the older opener—about 15 years old—needed replacement, we scheduled an 8 AM service visit the next morning in Federal Way.
After diagnosing the opener on site, I helped them choose a replacement, picked it up locally, and installed it the same visit. I made the needed adjustments, tested the door and safety features, and left the garage clean with everything running smoothly again.

Karen A.
I reached out to the company through Facebook on Friday afternoon. Wes responded to me about 15 min or so late later and attempted to troubleshoot my non functioning garage door over the phone at no cost. When all options were exhausted he scheduled the service visit the next morning at 8am, as it was the most convenient to me. Wes was polite and professional by phone made feel very comfortable hiring him to service my garage door opener.
Wes kept in touch of his arrival times and showed up on time. Most pleasant person I’ve worked with in a very long time. Kind, polite, HONEST, professional. Troubleshot my door opener and unfortunately I had to replaced the door opener. It was expected as I had my opener for about 15 years. Wes was honest about pricing the job, drove to Lowe’s, purchased the door opener of my liking and installed it within an hour. Left me with a fully functional and clean garage. Great person to work with and will definitely hire him for my next project.

Root Cause
The old garage door opener needed to be replaced because the travel module had failed. The travel module controls how far the opener moves the door during the open and close cycle. When that part breaks or stops reading correctly, the opener may not know where to stop, may reverse unexpectedly, or may fail to fully open or close the garage door.
For this opener replacement, installing a new unit was the better long-term fix instead of putting more money into the older opener. The new garage door opener restored reliable travel limits, smoother operation, and safer daily use. After replacement, the door was able to open and close properly without the old travel module issue causing problems.
