The problem
A garage door frozen shut at minus thirty is not going to wait for your voicemail
Garage door work is two-handed, overhead, and dangerous. When you're winding a torsion spring or troubleshooting a Chamberlain opener, you cannot stop to answer the phone. But the homeowner whose car is trapped behind a frozen door needs to get to work, and they are already calling the next company on Google.
- 78% of callers with a stuck garage door won't wait to leave a voicemail
- Most homeowners compare 2-3 companies and book whoever answers first
- A full-time receptionist costs C$2,500+/month for a business with seasonal demand
- Every missed call is a C$400+ repair or opener install going to a competitor

How Garage Door Companies Use Jodie
Frozen Door in Winter
The situation: A homeowner calls at 7am because their garage door is frozen shut after an overnight ice storm. The car is inside and they need to get to work.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, asks whether ice is visible around the seals, what type of door and opener they have, and whether they have tried the manual release. You get a text with all the details so you can call them back and arrange a visit.
Mid-Repair on a Ladder
The situation: You're up a stepladder winding a new torsion spring with both hands on the winding bars. Your phone buzzes in your pocket with a new inquiry.
Jodie handles it: Jodie takes the call, asks about the problem, gets the address and door details. You finish the spring safely and check the message when you climb down.
New Insulated Door Quote
The situation: A homeowner calls wanting a quote for a new R-16 insulated Garaga door to replace their uninsulated single-panel. They want to know about energy savings and are comparing three companies.
Jodie handles it: Jodie asks about the opening size in feet, what style they want, and whether they need a new garage door opener installed. You get the details by text so you can work up a quote or book a site visit.
After-Hours Security Call
The situation: A homeowner calls at 11pm because their garage door will not close and they are worried about security overnight with the garage open to the street in January.
Jodie handles it: Jodie answers, asks whether there is anything valuable in the garage, gets the address, and marks the call as urgent. You get the message right away and can advise on securing it or arrange a first-thing visit.
