Garage Door Repairman Frequently Asked Questions
Where are you based?
Based in Lifton West Devon UK between Launceston in Cornwall and Tavistock in Devon. We are a service-area business covering Plymouth Devon, and all PL postcodes and outlying areas, for the same affordable price. You can be sure that we are local by checking our Facebook Google and Yell.com presence from the links on our homepage.
Do you supply garage doors?
No, we do not supply garage doors, our focus is on repairs but if you want to buy your own we have a measure and fitting service that can save you money. Also if you've been told your garage door is beyond saving Howard may be able to fix it. Hundreds of our customers were told they needed a new garage door when they only needed a simple repair for around £95.
Why choose us?
People choose us because of our prices, reviews, speed of response - usually the same day. Plus Howard's expertise with more than 30 years experience of fixing up-and-over garage doors, which is why we are trusted by many local estate agents and councils. We are easy to contact, reliable, friendly and trustworthy. We also believe in transparent pricing - which is clearly shown our website - before you book - and you get a free oil and service with every repair! We like to leave our customers smiling, not shell-shocked by the price!
Do you have a call out charge?
No call out charge and no survey charge - no fix no fee - ever. Absolutely no sales pressure or obligation. Free quotes and friendly old school service.
Do you offer same day service?
In the Plymouth area it is usually the same day if you book before 1pm. Outlying areas maybe next day - but we never say we will be there and then not show up, unlike some. If we book you an appointment you can rest assured that Howard won't let you down and leave you in a panic because you're door won't close. We are very reliable just check our reviews, many of them mention that they chose us after being let down by other companies.
Do you give a warranty and are you insured?
We give a 12 month warranty on cables, springs etc. 5 years on automatic operators. Our customer service is excellent and we are insured for up to 5 million pounds! If you do have a problem we prioritise existing customers.
Is it easy to contact you?
Yes, many of our reviews mention how easy it is. Contact form, Facebook, WhatsApp, message, text, phone. 8am to 8pm or later. Including weekends. We work from home and we will give quick quotes based on photos you send us.
Why is the price so low and how do I pay?
We have lower overheads, no showrooms, "technicians" or fleets of vans and we are not VAT registered because we are not supplying, just repairing. Which is why we can say best price guaranteed. The price you see is the price you pay, and we accept card, cash, cheque or BACS payments.
Do you fix roller garage doors?
No we DO NOT work on commercial garage doors, or modern roller shutter garage doors such as Essati, Crocodile, Garolla or Seceuroglide.
Do you have a survey charge?
No we DO NOT. Beware terms like Survey, Advice Visit, Repair Service - the price upfront might look good value - but they charge extra for parts, and labour over 20 minutes!!! You don't get your repair service charge back if you refuse the quote. Read their 1* reviews to see what customers say. We never ask for money in advance. Our quotes are free - no obligation or upselling and our 5* reviews reflect this. We charge £95 to replace both cables - parts and all labour included no VAT.
Do you fix sectional garage doors?
Yes we repair domestic sectional garage doors. Howard has over 30 years experience of fixing them. You can trust him to know what he is doing!
