    UNACCEPTABLE. Nelson Contracting installed two garage doors on my 1927 home with full knowledge of the risks involved in an older structure. There were no issues with the installation when the job was complete and payment was made in full. Six months passed without incident until one garage door started making an alarming noise. I contacted Nelson Contracting about the issue. I was told I would have to PAY for a service call. I guess it was not worth Nelson Contracting effort to stop by for 15 minutes to give me their opinion on the issue. When I said I would gladly pay for this call I did not hear from Nelson Contracting for four weeks. When I contacted them to check on the status, I was told that actually, Nelson Contracting had diagnosed the problem without even stopping by and that I would require that the current system be removed and a new system installed. Sounds expensive. In summary, Nelson Contracting was happy to take thousands of dollars from me and then never wanted to hear from me again. One would think that an hour or two of service, especially if paid for, would be worth it to Nelson Contracting to maintain their reputation. Not. Avoid Nelson Contracting and use one of any garage door installers in Northern Michigan. I am sure there are dozens with a much higher level of customer service than Nelson Contracting. UNACCEPTABLE.

    After waiting two weeks for a company to call me back to initiate the repair I needed in order to use my garage I contacted Home Adviser who in turn recommended Nelson contracting. They called me within an hour to arrange the repair work the next day. Matt Nelson did what he said he would do in order to get my garage door operational. Getting that kind of support nowadays is hard to find. If you are having garage door problems this is the person you want on the job.

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
