ProLift Garage Doors of Charleston is a national franchise and was established in 2020.

“We specialize in residential garage door repair and installation. Repairs can range from annual maintenance and spring replacement to garage system overhauls that replace every component. We also install standard garage doors for clients who are budget focused while offering custom solutions that significantly increase curb appeal, natural garage light, and energy efficiency.”

Customer satisfaction is the number one priority at ProLift, and the proof is in their repeat and referral business. “Our clients have really enjoyed our communication, fairness, and work quality, and they tell us so via online reviews. These have gone a long way in creating confidence in the market that although we are newer, we are the best choice in Charleston for all of your garage door needs. Things don’t always go as planned, but we always do the right thing to help remedy issues. Plus, we never sell our clients things they don’t need, so they reuse and refer us with confidence.”

Whether it’s just something that needs to be fixed or a brand new garage door, Travis and his team stand behind their work and will stop at nothing until the client is happy with the work they have done. “I come from a client experience background, so I enjoy finding creative solutions to problems that ‘wow’ people. When we are able to deliver on that, it makes me feel like we are doing more than just fixing garages.” ProLift of Charleston also uses the hashtag #proliftyourday when doing something special for their clients and vendors in hopes it will inspire others to “Pay it forward”.

“At ProLift, we prioritize client experience above everything else. We know that when we treat our customers and employees like we want to be treated, success and growth will follow. We aim to exceed expectations while offering unmatched value, plus we love to give back to the community in fun ways.”

Speaking of giving back to the community, Travis and his team do tons of volunteer work to help the community in every way possible. A proud partner of Kids Lift, a non-profit focused on providing for children in need, they held a food drive to benefit children with food insecurity at Jane Edwards Elementary school during the pandemic. ProLift also donated $300 worth of items for “Journey Bags” that the Charleston County DSS gives to children that are in the extremely difficult transition into the foster care system. They also volunteered time to help with outdoor projects at Sundrops Montessori on Daniel Island and sponsor numerous little league teams with the Mount Pleasant Recreation Department.

Most recently, ProLift Charleston has partnered with Camp Road Middle School to help stock their "Care Closet", offering vital items for middle school children so that they can focus on learning. If you're interested in donating items to this cause, you can find the Amazon Wish List here: tar
