up in the business Oh yes this is what I've done well really since in high school when I finished high school this is what I did so I I did this part time I went to University of Houston played football there go Cougars and you know when football wasn't going on this is what I did after either after college classes or were on the weekend if we didn't have football going on so I did that part time and then when I was done with college II came on full time and thank God that the customers have been good to us and keep on calling so yeah you don't really know any better it's in your blood it really is growing up you didn't see your father doing anything different from this Oh no yeah I didn't get to see him do anything else to me he's always garage door doctor and matter of fact even in even when I was in school I learned real quick don't get in trouble don't get sick because when you're in trouble or sick you got to go to work with dad of course when you're sick you thought you got to stay home and watch prices right but that didn't work out for me so I remember staying home watching the prices right here is Cody’s number over garage door doctor it's 281-343-3632 easy number to remember put it in your phone because you don't know when you're going to have a crisis and when it happens it can happen very quickly sometimes you don't even know what happened now if you hear a Big Bang in your garage and someone didn't discharge a shotgun it's probably your spring right yes absolutely if you hear a big puff and it shakes your whole house it's probably the spring that broke and if the spring breaks you're not going to get that garage door up do not try to have your garage door open or do that work and do not you know disengage it from the garage door opener and try to lift it yourself unless you're Hercules it's not what you're supposed to do not mess with it call coding this team over garage door doctor that's why I'm giving him the phone number put it in your phone 281-343-3632 but I got a better deal how would you like to meet Cody and his family at no charge to you and they're going to come out and take a look at your garage door at no charge to you get a free garage door inspection or nearly $125 absolutely free today yes call us we'll come inspect it we will look at it to give you some we'll go through our 29 point inspection my whole entire team is basically my family so they're you know even if they're not related by blood they're still family I still think of them as my kids they're my babies that's why I call them so they don't like it when they're 30 years old and I call my baby but that's what I call you call me a baby cause I'm but when you get to a certain age Cody you can you can certainly call an old person and they'll be like thank you look so young yes but yeah that's you know we treat everybody like family I keep telling that to my team I said you know we want to treat everybody like they're your mom really that how would you treat your mom here well I would want mom to be given options if there's an issue and give her some options cheap middle high grade mom what do you want to do Oh well son what's the what route would you go we can we can tell you what we would recommend but really we're here just to give a menu of options is really what the what our goal is if there's any options to even be given because you may be having a clean bill of health and that would be great for you absolutely get a free garage door inspection not 125 it's free there is no obligation better yet though get the free garage door inspection and the lube and tune  with new rollers for only $170 that's right you'll get the garage door inspection you'll get the new rollers and the Lube and tune you'll know what's going on with your garage door and by the time coding is team leave your home that garage door is going to be running quieter and smoother Oh yes that's what our goal is I want that thing as smoothness quite as possible I want it also to be as safe as possible so and that we do always need to come back to safety there's reason there there's reasons there's code that that determines what safety is the opener needs the reason for that is because it's an animals were killed so this is it's weird you don't think of it that much oh that can't be dangerous it's one of the most dangerous things in your house and you don't even know it please don't let your kids hang on the door either please so yeah that was one of our pastimes when I was young we used we used to let the garage door pick us up and let us down and pick us up and let us down the way that some of these some of these manufacturers have started installed these doors please don't do that you can tear this door up and more importantly if it gets torn up it may come crashing down that these are actually quite fragile systems you may not understand it until it breaks on you but it's actually quite a fragile system even if it's the 800 pound one it's a fragile system so it doesn't take much to make these things go off track it really doesn't please keep your kids off of it I would not allow I'll go over this this is one thing I even got I've got eight kids eight kids Joe so I don't find that hard to believe but congratulations for you I guess right but you know so Mike I'm told radio listener can't hear it can't see that but I'm 6 foot eight so most of my kids are around my hip or my chest OK so when a garage door is opening up they want to walk underneath it when it's past their eye level if the doors not if the door still moving do not go underneath the moving door just don't the risk that you're taking there if something weird happens in the door collapses or falls it can it can end a life and I'm not here to put fear in anybody it's just respect it OK it is something that is dangerous let that door finish moving before you go underneath it please we take it for granted yes we really don't know a lot about it we're like well that button on the wall over there when you press the button it'll go up and then when you press it it'll go down and actually if you want to stop it as it's going up you can press the button it will stop OK no harm on that OK also in the car you either have a remote that came with your garage door opener or you programmed it into the system of the car and it's like a light switch when you flip it on you expect the lights to go on it's the same thing we don't really know any better but Cody is right it's very dangerous if something goes awry with the door you don't want a door that weighs hundreds of pounds careening down on you Cody said it could kill you could also paralyze you if it hits your head it's going to I mean it could crush your spinal cord and this and you know it's not even me saying this has happened just look up garage door injuries so now the other half of the grocery industry injuries sorry is from mechanical or high mechanical people that are messing with the cables the springs the bottom brackets and drums that's how you lose fingers and that's how you get stitches in your head so I just need to understand that that stuff's under tension and be careful I would suggest not to do it call us the doctor but garage door Dr. the springs the cables there and actually the garage doors are sharp there's just so many things that can really injure you we still have some more time here on checker pro radio so don't go anywhere Cody’s number 281-343-3632 we'll beginning at the number after the break as well stand by

door is your door dented or cracked is
3:42
the paint peeling off is it bubbling out
3:44
is the door rusted corrosion on there so
3:48
we're going to go over that we you know
3:50
what we need to think about we I.E if
3:54
I'm the homeowner what we need to think
3:55
about is this is basically on most homes
3:58
in Houston okay some homes are Mansions
4:01
maybe not but most garage doors are 35
4:04
to 40 percent of the face of the house
4:06

4:09
garage door means something okay it
4:12
means a lot it's the number one Roi from
4:14
remodeling magazine is replacing your
4:17
garage door nowadays on garage doors you
4:19
can get you don't have to have what's

insulated door with high insulation

level that's going to make your home
4:27
more energy efficient the door by the
4:29
way because there's more mass and with

team were gonna see what's going on we can we can determination whether or not you need to have something fixed or replaced but at least you'll know I'm telling you the doctor said hey Joe come on in I'm gonna drive a lot of table saying what's going on and you can draw on the future cancer hmm OK well right because I mean I've got cancer the same type of thing yes yes and and really you know the point that we like to do the the 29 point inspection for framing is is multiple things a we're getting our eyes on what's going on if there's a concern most customers don't call us when there's not a problem they usually call us when they do hear something weird so if you hear something we're definitely call us OK and so 99% of our customers that's that's them right not not necessarily something broken but something about to break well we can catch that and fix that before it actually breaks and tells you more money worst two days or a day off of work over like I'm looking forward to that but really the point is is we just wanna build a relationship with you we wanna be in your garage door guy your garage door doctor for the future so we're not really concerned on sales if you need something we'll tell you if you want to do it great if not we're still friends I just want I want you to call us if or when something breaks down the road unless you choose to take care of it beforehand so but this number overflowing really their own pool refrigerator pulling on George word doctor 281-343-3632 the number again 281343 632 right away if you wanna hear more of column when you talk about garage doors you can go there podcast site so just go to Google and type increased or doctor podcast and you will hear all kinds of wasteful talked about in the past on all kinds of different platforms so if you're like all the row or Spotify or iheart or apple or Google all of those apps have the garage door doctor podcast they keep forgetting to mention that you say you have word worldwide worldwide that's awesome yes this is a great experience so for for me personally this isn't some experience so let's see what the weather 281-343-3632 going through some of the major points the 12 points actually talked about where the door and so forth how about that seal the border of the door that's important isn't it that's an important one that's a very important role the seal on the bottom a lot of times what we're going to be looking for did it shrink from side to side do you have a 6 inch gap on either side from the the rodents and pests to be crawling underneath easily inside your garage and we're going to look to see if it's shrunk and got more cards should be applicable a lot of times with age it actually gets rock hard and it starts cracking and breaking so it's like porosus that's what all people like me were you laughing we do are comparing this to going into the doctor right they're looking and so listeners are are arranged plus and they're kind of like not all heads yeah yeah this guy's right things get old such as that single throttle it can become brittle will become brittle is known as effective because it's supposed to be pliable to your point is supposed to expand we contract of this was designed for us like a weather seal way so it's supposed to do that and also does become available it will literally snapped right cruel fell apart it it will absolutely I almost think of it also in terms of of almost done a cushion for the door when it's closing from the opener so it is a little bit of a cushion it keeps some wear and tear both off of the opener the top section because that's where the pressure is also on the bottom panel so as long as the weather strip is in good condition then then you still you're getting the benefit from it if it's shrunk if you put glue traps in the corners of your garage you probably ought to have us take a look at your weather strip we can also do what's called exterior vinyl trim that has a flap on it that seals against the door so that's very common for us to do generally after the customer paid a fortune the pest control for them to tell you oh after they did their service know all this stuff's coming in through the garage open the biggest opening the biggest moving appliance that you have in your time in house so but yes so that's what that's what we found and we can help you we can probably get you 99% there I can't help if the concretes waving and and you know it's not leveled by two inches which we also see in the city sometimes so we can get you most of the way there and for most of our customers all the way where they need to be so sure Cody it's not just the reason rats it couldn't be the snakes yes right a lot of things and italics from keeping big snakes out and those are those are really worried about that and I have come across things of course I live out LaGrange and everyone's like OK you know come across comprehend last night the last names are big but there weren't lines careful and tell you one thing most row traps are great for those snake crawls upon it it will just take you with them right the big ones will make it right with them one truck go I don't know where it went so you know another term of it it's kind of like locking the door OK you wanna keep the robbers out it's something really want saying they're gonna get in sorry to tell you that but you're trying to deter them so if you got good vinyl trim on the outside of good weather strip seal on the bottom it's going to deter that road intersection we'll just say I'm gonna find the next house next door and go get in they're just going to look for another point of entering from somewhere else something else easy for we're trying to not keep it easy for them so I'm speaking with you replacing weather strip that simple bottom is one of the easiest and least expensive things that you can go to your various door to basically maintain upgrade here is commands number 281-343-3632

And we're back here from the Check A Pro radio studios Cody Johnson is joining me from garage door doctor Cody welcome back thank you it's so great to have you here we were talking about the 29 point inspection and you were moving through that you don't need to talk about all 29 points but before we get back to that though I do want to remind everybody if you would like to get your garage door inspected Cody and his team from garage door doctor are giving away a limited amount of the free garage door inspections today here on the radio program we had eight to begin with there's only six left call now 281-343-3632 again 281-343-3632 that is the number to get your free garage door inspection why might you get an inspected why would they because something doesn't seem right they just moved into the house maybe they don't know if they just moved into the house if they're about to sell the house this is one of the number one red flags that they inspectors gonna hit because the inspector needs to hit something and and so they look good that's the way they look good and these are easy targets for them to hit when I when they give that over to the new potential home buyer that's going to create some strife there because they're right legally and you have literally codes safety tests and stuff like that that it needs to pass so these are things that we can knock off that list before the inspector even gets to it and you'll have a piece of paper saying safe passes safety test so and it's free it's free Oh my gosh why you calling out 281343 3632 before we get to the 29 point inspection before we complete that the Lube and tune I need to talk about that with new rollers I see this here on my sheet let's talk about the lubin Toon with new rollers there's a special the regular price is $250 correct what's the special price so only for your members basically we're gonna do a coupon of $55 off OK because you said bring a second offer bring a second brought it bring it OK and then on top of that the the customer can stack the VIP card that that check a pro gives of another 25 off so really all in the customer is looking at $170 for lubin tune that'll include the 29 point inspection and we'll tune up the door so yes wow so either way if you just want the garage door inspection that's ordinarily 125 it's free today but if you want the Lube and tune with a new rollers and what that's gonna do it's gonna quiet things down a lot it's gonna run smoother and your parts all the parts including the garage door operator the actual opener should last longer because there's going to be less friction just the rollers themselves are going to Oh yeah I mean the rollers alone make the door work a lot smoother assuming that your rollers are in bad condition they'll be the first ones to tell you hey these are perfect OK but if your house is five years or older rollers have a lifespan like everything else so in a lot of stuff if it came from the builder some of these don't even have ball bearings Joe they don't even have ball bearings they're just little plastic Shim groaning down the track and then if it's a metal roller it sounds The train going down down the tracks tick tick tick tick tick so how much is the builder really saving I mean come on pennies it's it's $100 maybe on a door it's really the installing company that's bidding it out because if the installing companies $5 higher than the next guy they didn't lose one job they lost thousands of jobs so it is a builder problem the way the bidding process is because they're always looking for cheapest price but they're not saying I want cheaper rollers the install the installing company that's selling it to the builders is the ones that's finding out how do I cut costs so I can get this thousand home project so but it comes back to the builder because within year one there's warranties generally on things like that in the builder has to then make good on it yes and and even a poor door sometimes will last longer than a year usually right past the builder warranty what a coincidence like everything else they put in nowadays tends to last about 18 months to three years and then it starts crumbling so and if it's crumbling or making weird noises if it gets stuck guess what else they they cheaped out on they cheaped out on the gauge of the metal the door can start buckling now you're looking potentially at a whole new door when it could have been saved if all we did is a yearly tune up so we could have saved yeah get your free garage door inspection regularly 125 it's absolutely free today there's only a few of those left and the lubin Toon not 250 it'll net down to only $170 today that is a fantastic offer 28134336322813433632 back to the 29
