In this day and age it is shocking when a service actually repairs something, as opposed to replacing it at a higher price. If they said I needed to replace my non-functioning garage door opener I would not of blinked an eye. That would have cost me $500. Instead, they repaired the motor for $200.

Hobbs Door Service was recommended on Nextdoor after I posted a listing that my rental property's garage door had come off the track. I am so glad that they were available to help. Janice was so friendly, accommodating, and very communicative. Kurt came out to do the repair and thoroughly explained the job during the process. Their customer service was top notch and I wouldn't hesitate to call on them or refer their company.

I was referred by a friend when I asked him if there was someone that would work on my door without brow beating me to buy stuff I don't need. I can't express how happy I was with my service. My garage door works as well, or better, than it did new. Clayton, did what I asked, fixed a couple of things he found without charging and helped set up the keypad I had never used before. Fantastic customer service, expert workmanship at a very reasonable price.
