The problem

A snapped torsion spring at 9pm is not going to wait for your voicemail

Garage door work is two-handed, overhead, and often dangerous. When you're winding a torsion spring or aligning a track, you cannot stop to answer the phone. But the homeowner whose car is trapped in the garage is 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 £1,500+/month for a business with seasonal demand
  • Every missed call is a £300+ repair job going to a competitor
