How many times have
you hired a garage contractor and his men? Probably not many. However, odds are
that this is the first and last time you will have this work done. So you want
to make sure that you have all the necessary information to make the right
decision. Few home owners know very much about garage door installation.
A garage contractor who’s
been plying his trade locally for five or 10 years has an established network
of subcontractors and suppliers in the area and a local reputation to uphold.
That makes them a safer bet than a garage
contractor who’s either new to the business or planning to commute to
your job from 50 miles away. Ask about a contractor’s professional reputation,
whether he has left a trail of unhappy customers in his wake, if he’s reliable
about paying his bills — and whether he’s someone you’ll want to hire. Your garage
contractor should have no qualms about telling you where he gets his materials
if he’s an upstanding customer.
In terms of planning
financially for garage door maintenance, repair, or replacement, garage door
maintenance steps are within the reach of most homeowners, there are several garage
door installation and repair tasks that should always be done by professionals.
For instance, if you have an automatic garage door opener and are experiencing
any problems with the built in safety reversal features, call a repairman right
away. Not addressing this problem can result in damage to your car, and even
worse, personal injury.
Keep the lines of
communication open with your garage contractor. Don't be afraid to bring up any
concerns or problems you might have, whether they're about the job at hand or
the presence of a work crew at your house, and encourage your garage contractor
to do the same. It will make things easier for everyone involved. Just be sure
to voice concerns in a respectful and understanding manner. Be sure to give
compliments where they have been earned, as nobody will respond well if you
only have bad news. Remember, your contractor and crew are people too and will
appreciate being treated as such.
