They’ve been thoughtful about respecting customers’ wishes for as little contact as possible, including distanced estimates.”&nbsp;Looking forward, Raymond is confident that the brand will continue on this upward trend as more and more homeowners seek out its services.&nbsp;“The home improvement trend isn’t going anywhere,” Raymond said. “There’s always going to be a need for garage door installation and repairs, and as more people learn about our services and how great our franchises are, we’re going to continue to see great success.”The startup costs for a ProLift Garage Doors franchise ranges from $101,375 to $142,000.
