Look for the best, and forget the rest

Many businesses in East Tennessee may claim to offer “garage door repair.” There are a range of services that these providers may, or may not, deliver. Your garage door is a big investment, critical to the safety and security of your family. You want the repair done right the first time without unnecessary delays or hidden costs.

Here are some things to consider when choosing a firm to service and repair your family’s garage door:

Credibility is crucial

Take a look at the following items to see how you can gather additional information about a provider's credibility BEFORE putting in the call... 

Location.

Does the company have a physical address? Any reputable garage door repair company in Knoxville or East Tennessee should have one. You can verify this using Google Maps or another mapping tool. Verify that the provider isn’t just listing an apartment building or mail drop location. It’s always good to be able to see the storefront of the location, just to be sure.

Website.

Today, nearly every credible business has a website. If there is no website, check Facebook. Some smaller companies find that familiar interface easier to maintain than a full website.

Reviews.

A company’s online reputation is critical in this digital age. Search Google, Yahoo, and Facebook for published reviews of Knoxville-area repair projects. Consider the more recent posts and pay less attention to dated reviews. Also, be sure to look for a good number of reviews. One or two is not a good sample.

Ask Friends for Recommendations.

A positive referral (or caution) from a trusted family member, friend, or co-worker can speak volumes. Online reviews are nice, but the word of an East-Tennessean that you know should carry extra weight in your decision making about garage door repairs.

Gut check.

When calling or meeting with a repairman, trust that sixth sense. If your intuition is trying to warn you, take heed. A competent garage door repair specialist should make you feel at ease with the decision to authorize repairs.
