Our remote garage motor had broken after 15+ years. I spoke to Steve who was on call. Within 2-3 hours he had installed a new motor. He was great to deal with, nothing was a bother and very efficient. Received terrific service from WR - would definitely recommend.

12 months on from having my garage door replaced, the service and care of WR Engineering ACT continues to be outstanding.
I received a reminder that my door was due for a service. The service was booked in and I have just had the service completed. The young men that carried out the service were thorough, professional and extremely personable.
It is so lovely to receive good customer service. Thank you.

I engaged WR to install a garage door on my existing carport. In 4 months they've done 5 site visits to check measure, yet they have ordered 2 wrongly sized doors, have had 2 failed install attempts, drilled 2 now useless purlins into my brick house and concrete slab, and it is now clear WR are unable to complete the job as promised (the only solution they can offer is to move the purlins & door to a location in front of a shared fence line which is not acceptable to me or my neighbours). They tried to charge me for the door reorder which was their error and now they want me to charge me for the

They had to trim back the bushes from our neighbour and then left an enormous amount of the clippings on our driveway, which was brand new and ended up stained and had to be pressure washed.
They left screws scattered through our garden.
Had quoted 3 days turnaround, would have been less if the guys didn't turn up late and leave early everyday.
Ignored our email about the mess left behind.
I regret not using a smaller company like I had previously who had a better service.

Our old roller doors needed replacing (one was damaged and the other was showing signs of its age). We decided to go with WR Engineering and got them to instal B&D Panel Lift ones. Everyone involved in the process was helpful and courteous, from office staff to installer. Matthew was amazing as he removed the old doors and installed the new ones single handedly and was very conscientious when setting up the various components. When a small problem emerged after installation it was fixed promptly and pleasantly. I have no hesitation in recommending WR Engineering to anyone considering new garage

Quality customer service from Curtis and the company as a whole, which is too hard to come by from businesses these days. Highly recommend them!

We've just had a fence installed by WR engineering and the process was flawless start to finish. From Lachlan coming out to measure and quote, to ordering the product, booking in a suitable time and Dave… installing the fence I cannot fault them. Very friendly, professional and quality workmanship, we are very happy customers and would highly recommend to anyone.

Absolutely brilliant, professional and efficient service. Garage door motor died on Easter weekend and within 2 hours it was fixed, quieter and faster! So good!

Tradesman had a look but did not have the parts to complete the job. We were told the procedure was to pay $175 call out fee now and it comes off the total of $875 when they finish the job leaving a balance of $700 and they would send us a quote by email stating this. They did not email this quote.
I called the office and booked the job, again they told me the $175 original call out fee would come off the $875 job fee and the final total would be $700. I was
told this would be written on the job sheet, It was not.
The tradesman turned up and did an amazing job with a top quality product.

I booked a service for a pair of B&D roller doors two years ago, mainly to resolve noisy and clunky operation. I didn't notice any real improvement after the service and they had been as noisy as they were before the servicing. I was also advised I would need new doors and motors. Today I applied half a can of WD-40 myself to the tracks, fabric side strips and springs, and I finely tuned the position of the fabric strips so that they all run within the channels (some had slipped off the side). Low and behold, the noise and clunking has stopped and the doors are running more smoothly now than after

Asked them to come and fix a tiltadoor where a bolt on a rail had sheered off. It's a one dollar part. The guy came, took one look, and said "you can't get just that part, you need a rail kit, that'll be $175 call out fee." Paid the $175 on the understanding that it would be deducted from the price of installing the kit which he was going to quote for. Waited a week for the quote to arrive, and then phoned them when it hadn't. They said "look in your Junk folder". Sure enough, and appropriately, there it was. $1,500 to supply and fit!!! No breakdown of the labour or parts costs, just all lumped

Have used WR for a few years now with no issues until recently. We had an issue with the garage door motor where we suspected to have stripped the gears inside. Had someone come out to look and without even taking the engine apart told us we needed a whole new motor (at almost $1000 in cost) and it wasn’t worth buying parts to repair. Knowing we would be replacing it anyway, my husband took the engine apart and found a couple of teeth in the helical gear were stripped. A quick search for the part in our manual and then online found a new gear for $60. We ordered it and fixed it within 30 minutes

I am not happy at all. Had the system installed on Saturday and it failed on Sunday. Called your office, and the only time available is tomorrow Tuesday between 9 and 12 when I will be away. The next date they gave me is 4th of March. I know WR has an emergency service 24 hours but you won’t send them for what reason I don’t understand. If your… product with 7 yrs parts and service warranty fails in one day, and you can’t get to fixing it, it’s just not good enough. On top of that, its apparently a service call and not a warranty call. It’s been just one day

Not really impressed by WR. They damaged our door during the install and still haven’t replaced it after 2 months. Every time we call them we get “forwarded” around the office until it ends at someone’s voice mail and we don’t ever hear back. Very expensive and very poor service.

I had my really noisy garage door serviced by WR Engineering and am really happy with the work done by Craig. Very professional job and reasonably priced. Two other companies had been unsuccessful in their attempts to fix the noise.
