Established 2004
In the suburban landscape of the early 2000s, Jeff Johnson recognized an opportunity that would shape the next two decades of his life. In 2004, he founded Dr. J Garage Door Doctor, a small business dedicated to the repair, maintenance, and installation of garage doors. Jeff was meticulous in his work, building a reputation for reliability, integrity, and craftsmanship.

However, finding the right people to carry on his legacy wasn’t just about technical skills; he wanted individuals who understood the heart of the business.
