Garage doors
Four types of door, and the right one depends on your garage rather than on what we would like to sell you. Here is what each one does well, and what it does badly.

Doors, roofs, cladding and repairs across Wakefield and the surrounding villages.
Garages in Wakefield
Wakefield and the villages around it are largely brick, with garages built in the fifties and sixties either attached to the house or in a block shared with the neighbours. Block garages bring their own problem: what you do has to line through with what is next door, so we set the door heights and colours to match rather than leaving a run looking patched.
Whatever the garage, the process is the same: we measure it, tell you what will and will not fit, and put a written price in front of you before anything is ordered.

Before and after
Recent work
Tired garage brought back from the brink
The old up-and-over had lost most of its paint and the flat roof had gone back to bare, rotten boards. Roof, door, fascia and side cladding were all replaced in one visit - a new box-profile roof, anthracite door and white cladding right round.
Timber double doors swapped for a steel up-and-over
Red-stained timber side-hinged doors that had rotted along the bottom rail, replaced with an anthracite up-and-over. The pitched box-profile roof and new fascia went on at the same time.
Sectional door fitted into a stone arch
An arched stone opening with an ageing white roller door. Fitted with an anthracite sectional door, packed and trimmed to follow the arch so the stonework was left untouched.
Questions
Common questions
Do you charge extra to come out to Wakefield?
No. Everywhere on this list is quoted the same way and the survey is free. We will travel further across Yorkshire for the right job, and only then might there be a travel charge — which we would tell you about on the phone, not afterwards.
How quickly can you get to Wakefield?
Repairs come before quotes, so a stuck door or an insecure garage is seen first. Ring rather than email if the door will not shut.
Do you do the roof as well as the door?
Yes. Garage roofs and cladding are half of what we do, and doing them at the same time as the door saves a second visit.
