Dodds installed my new garage door in January. They have also repaired my exisitng opener which is a very old one. They provide prompt and courteous service and are very understanding when there is a budget constraint! Thank you very much JP and Will for your help today. I recommend Dodds to anyone and will call Dodds when I get a new door opener.

Newer home and builder installed doors, I installed openers. Doors would open and close fine but just really louid. Call Dodds to come out and assess what could be the problem. 1.5 hr flat rate at $78/hr was a bit much but when they came out they advised that the builder had painted the spring which was causing the excessive noise. Technician lubricated the spring and all the hinges and roller and even left a can of the lube. Overall I was satisfied.

We appreciate your point about the price but would like to explain that we have a huge investment in buildings, inventory, trucks and personnel. We are no different to the military in so far we have two "backroom" people supporting every one technician in the field.We pay top wages and consequently have excellent personnel but this does entail a cost.

I could not be more pleased with the look, feel and workings of the new door but was more impressed with the knowledge and ultimate service that we received throughout the whole installation process. no fuss, no mess and nothing but professionalism.

We recently had a problem with our garage door. One of the cables had rusted and snapped. My wife and I thought we might need a new door. I called Dodd’s Door. Not only did they arrive on time, the technician fixed our existing garage door and the door opener, which hadn’t worked in almost a year. All (garage door and opener) well below what I thought I’d have to pay for just the garage door. The honesty and great service was refreshing. Thanks for doing a great job. Regards, Stephen Mills-Hughes

I contacted Dodd's Doors to do an installation on my detached garage door. Their salesperson was professional and courteous and came to my property quickly when asked. He measured my door, and although there was some plywood blocking his access to the ceiling, I removed a piece and he felt comfortable saying there was enough clearance. He asked me to remove all of the plywood from the walls and ceiling of the garage which I did over the course of an afternoon, then paid to have all of the waste removed. I also removed all of the existing rails of the old garage door anticipating that the install would be done. On the date the installation was to be done, we came home to find out nothing had happened. NO ONE called on that date or for several days after to explain why the work was not done. I had to make two calls before someone explained that they realized that their measurements were incorrect, and that they could not install the door. They were looking for a new door. A week and a half passed and I heard nothing. Finally, after contacting the manager, my sales rep called me to say nothing could be done and they will be refunding our deposit. While our sales rep was polite, no one ever apologized to us for demo-ing our garage and having to make several calls just to find out they could do nothing for us. The service as a whole left much to be desired, and while Dodd's will no doubt have a legitimate explanation for their mistake, they did not do nearly enough to be communicative with us or to apologize. The whole episode has cost us approximately $250 in expenses because of their mistake. Very unhappy.

Unfortunately this client did not post their name so were unable to investigate what happened. The sales person should have never simply taken a chance that there was sufficient clearance above the door but should have requested the plywood be removed so that the clearance could be evaluated.We do 10,000 calls per annum and it will always be the one that is not checked that will trip us up. We apologise to this client that we dropped the ball and if they will send us proof of the out of pocket expenses that they incurred we will gladly send them a refund.

While installing my own garage door opener, I raised the garage door too much and had a lift cable get crossed and frayed. I was unable to get the garage door to close completely and called Dodds. They arrived quickly, properly calibrated the door, and ensured that the garage door opener now worked properly. Just after the technician left a cable slipped off. I called the Dodds number and the technician was back in 5 minutes and fixed the problem with no hassel.
