Expected Answer: Yes sir we are a legally licensed company and insured. Also, our technicians show their licenses. in addition, our integrity is sturdy against any compromise of quality, or safety regarding work performed.
2. How long have you been in business?
This question is flexible and not specific because the garage doors field is built on experience so the more experience from previously finished jobs the more the company is better but we believe from 5 years is good to 10 years is recommended. however, I think you should ask them better and more beneficial like “can I see some examples of the same jobs that I need”. from a question like that you will address three important things first you will see their best jobs second you will know exactly what you will expect after they finish your work third you have a good example of what you imagine and maybe better ideas if we talking about new installation and not just repairs or maintenance.

3. Do you offer free estimates?
Free estimates are essential for both of you as a company and customer because it gives both of you clarity about how much this job will cost and let you as customer compare prices so you should expect that the company gives you free estimates for your job if you didn’t get one, I assume that probably that this company has much higher prices than others so they don’t want let you realize that or maybe they are not this smart enough to make their company more appealing.
Expected Answer: Yes Sir, We provide free on-site Consultations for the opportunity to earn your business.
4. How long will it take you to get to me?
This question is one of the most important questions, as it shows the extent of the company’s response, especially in important cases such as cases of emergency repair of your garage door. Therefore, if the company provides services such as Emergency repair or the Same Day repair this will be something you would really consider. Some companies provide GPS location tracking for the technician until he arrives at your location.
Expected answer: it takes us from 1 to 2 hours maximum to get to you.
If emergency repair services are requested.
Expected Answer: We get to you sir in about 30Mins maximum.
You have to know that time depends on the nearest location to you. so don’t forget to see how long it takes in google maps or if they have a google my business location
