Pleasure to deal with Sean, who kept us informed throughout. Very pleased with product and fitting. Door appears to be of excellent quality....and much better looking in situ than many others we have seen/those around us!  Very pleased.  Has already made marked difference in reducing draught in integral garage.  Good to know that Sean also offers a repairs service, should the door need any attention in future years.

Great job! Sean phoned before he set off to give a likely arrival time (what a pleasant change from firms that will only say they will be there in the 'morning' or 'afternoon'). The runner had come completely away from the ceiling, but Sean re-attached it securely without any fuss and then adjusted the tension on the springs, with the result that the heavy double door now opens and closes more easily than it has ever done in the past.

Door is perfect. Excellent Service.

I thought my garage door was dead, and was quite ready to pay to have it replaced. Sean took a close look, diagnosed a roof leak causing the main spring to rust and stick, got it all working again smoothly, recommended (at my request) a colleague to fix the roof leak - and only charged me the minimum call-out fee for the whole lot! I would recommend him to anybody, without hesitation.

We'd had problems with other alleged garage-door repair artists we'd tried to obtain through Yellow Pages. They either didn't call back when they'd said they would or they insisted on knowing the manufacturer of the doors before anything. This man arrived, identified the doors at once and made the repair.
