How the numbers are scored

Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated it, compared with the others on this page. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 from hundreds of customers carries more weight than a 5.0 from a few. Recency reflects how recently customers are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

  • Is the new door or opener rated for hurricane wind loads?
  • What warranty comes with parts and labor?
