How To Choose A Garage Door Repair Company

When you search on the internet for garage door repair you’ll have hundreds of choices to choose from and many repair companies advertising can be very misleading. So here’s a little help.

Add a city or location to your search term such as “garage door repair Lawrenceville”, next look at the entire first page to see what catches your attention. Look for duplicate advertisements for the same garage door repair company so you don’t unknowingly call the same company twice.

Beware of the offers that sound too good to be true because they most likely are, not very many things in life are free so pay attention. Reputable garage door service and repair companies will list access to their online reputation and look for at least 85 favorable reviews from an independent source not just what’s posted on their website it could be made up.

If you contact a garage door repair service and they don’t ask very many questions of you and just want to send a technician out for free or not stay away. An experienced garage door company can ask a few questions from you about the problem your garage door or opener is having and can make a general assessment of what’s wrong and a pretty firm estimate right over the phone. If they’re unwilling to provide a phone quote keep shopping.

Make sure the garage door repair company you are calling actually has a home office nearby and not across the country, if they don’t skip them and move onto a company with hometown roots they have the most at stake.

One final note remember big name advertisers build those expensive advertisement costs into your garage door repair, so like it or not you’ll be paying for more than you bargained for.
