Highlights
"My Cardale garage door mechanism failed with the lifting wire coming off the winding cone. The door was unusable. I rang Vinny late in the afternoon, he was in Mudeford but came over to Broadstone. He advised it needed new cones and wires on both sides, new side rollers & a good cleanup & lubrication. Before he left that evening he managed to rethread the wire onto the cone allowing me to use the door again. He came back a week or so later with the new parts and effected a permanent repair. He also lubricated the other door. He went the extra mile. Excellent service. Thoroughly recommend."
"Call out to rental property in evening for garage door repair, garage door repaired made it safe and workable. Really Pleased"
"Quick response, lovely guys and efficient workers. I last used Vinny 7 years ago to replace the door mechanism in my previous house, and I was equally pleased with a service in my new place in 2026. Highly recommended!"
