    Garage Door Servicing / Repair

    Posted 27 July

    Extortionate charges for servicing after purchasing their products

    Having bought an automatic garage door which I was pleased with, I was required to have it serviced annually. BUT the prices are extortionate, Annual service, completed in less than 15 minutes by one man, cost £90 plus VAT. Having done that twice and not using the garage daily, I dropped the servicing interval to discover that they charge more if more than 1 year gap!! £145 plus VAT so £174 for less than 15 minutes attendance by one person, the company are local so no long travel time either. How can that be justified? I paid the bill but rang and told them I was unhappy, no response. POOR

    Response from Advance Shutters Ltd

    We are transparent with pricing, we give all customers the price before work commences. The engineer is very experienced and will have given the door a complete service, any issues found, dealt with. If the door is working well, there is not much do to the door and the service is carried out quite quickly, some services there is a lot to do to the door and they can be there an hour or so. Jenny took your call, she had a conversation about the service and prices and we knew you were not happy but not aware you were expecting further action, apologies. Good news that the door is still work well!

    Garage door replacement

    The service was first class. I asked them to repair garage door cables. However on closer inspection it was clear a new door was needed. This was ordered and fitted within 24 hours. The price for the repair call out was deducted from the door price. I was very pleased with the service, reliability and the end result.
