Whether you need a garage door repair or replacement because your spouse or teenager backed into it, you need springs replaced, or you are just looking to update the appearance of your home – it is important that you avoid garage door scams. Most people rely on word of mouth when they need to seek a professional to repair something with their home. However, when it comes to the garage door, chances are that most people do not have regular dealings with garage door repair companies, making them susceptible to scams.
At HABPRO Garage Doors, we have built our reputation on providing the best services to our customers. We want to help everyone avoid garage door repair scams so that they are not gipped out of money and time.
What we recommended to everyone is that you do a quick Google search on what you need to have repaired or replaced and what the typical cost is. If someone comes to your home and the price seems excessively high, call them out on it and look somewhere else. Also important, if a price seems exorbitantly low, let that be a warning sign. A price that is way lower than prices elsewhere, it is almost guaranteed that the company does not know what they are doing – and it will cost you even more in the long run.
We also recommend that you run away from any “lifetime guarantees.” While guarantees sound nice, they are often one of the tell-tale signs of a garage door repair scam. What usually occurs is that a company will purposefully install a part that will fail. Then, when you, the customer, calls to have them honor the lifetime guarantee, they will replace the faulty part for “free” but then add on hefty service charges for the re-installation. This scam has been going around for decades.
At HABPRO Garage Doors, we pride ourselves on our No Gimmicks, No Hassle service. Our company offers quality products and services at affordable rates. Customers have rated us a “Best of” at Kudzu for over five years in a row. We offer a satisfaction guarantee because we value you as the customer. Call us for all of your garage door needs.
