August definitely didn’t take it easy on us.

August was a smoky one in Central Washington, but the Davis Garage Doors crew kept rolling! From high-lift installs and tricky spring repairs to shed doors and some seriously good-looking Garaga doors, Josh and Jenni stayed busy making sure no garage door problem was too big, too small, or too complicated. We’re heading into another month proud of another month of hard work, great customers, and plenty of doors going up and down exactly like they should.

September may be here, but August gave us plenty worth looking back on!

Where There’s Smoke, There Are Garage Doors

Wildfire smoke made its way into the valley this August, but it didn’t slow the Davis Garage Doors crew down.

Josh and Jenni masked up and kept working through the smoky conditions to finish up jobs for our customers. Not exactly ideal garage door weather, but around here, you work with what Central Washington gives you!

Taking Things a Little Higher in Ellensburg

Jenni vs. The Garage Door

This service call gave Jenni a little bit of everything.

A TorqueMaster spring needed service, the opener chain had completely come off the motor and the gears inside needed some attention too. Instead of letting the garage door win, Jenni rebuilt the gears in the motor, got the chain back where it belonged and replaced the springs.

By the time she was done, the door was back up and running like it should.

Garage door: 0. Jenni: 1.

No Door Too Small

Not every job has to be a giant commercial door or complicated high-lift installation.

Josh and Jenni also got to help out their good friends, the Armstrongs, with a new garage door for their shed this month. It may be one of the smaller doors we worked on in August, but it still got the full Davis Garage Doors treatment.

Big door, little door, weird door… we’ve probably got you covered.

One From the DGD Archives

We also took a little trip down memory lane this month with an install from a couple summers ago that’s still hard to forget.

The summer heat was in full force, and the garage had a loft area that the door needed to high-lift over. It was one of those projects where you look at the space, scratch your head for a minute and then figure out how to make it happen.

A few years later, it’s still one for the books.

Okay… These Doors Deserve Their Own Section

We’ve installed a lot of beautiful garage doors, but these Garaga Vantage Plank doors are serious show-stoppers.

The Dark Acacia HD finish paired with tinted glass running down each section gives them a modern look while still bringing in the warmth of a wood-style finish.

There are some jobs you finish and immediately know you’re going to be talking about them for a while…

This was definitely one of them.

On to September!

Hopefully we don’t sound like a broken record, but it’s been busy, and we’re loving it! From new installations and service-truck upgrades to helping local families improve their homes and businesses, the crew has stayed hard at work across Ellensburg. We were also honored to place second in Kittitas County’s Best, and we’re incredibly grateful to everyone who voted for and continues to support our family-owned business. July is always a great month, as we celebrated the Fourth of July (250!!!) with family at the Seattle Mariners ballpark. And what a game!! The Mariners beat the Blue Jays 11 to 0!!! Thank you to all our customers for your support so that we can give our children such awesome memories!

A Hot Week and a Great New Shop Project

The week of the 27th brought some serious heat to Ellensburg, but that didn’t stop our crew from showing up and getting the job done!

We were grateful for the opportunity to help an incredibly kind and hardworking local family with their new shop. Thank you for trusting us to be part of such an exciting project. We appreciate your hospitality and are proud to have helped bring your vision to life.

Another Garage Door Renovation in Ellensburg

Davis Garage Doors recently completed another impressive garage door renovation in Ellensburg.

The home’s old, non-insulated wooden doors were replaced with modern, insulated garage doors. The new doors improve energy efficiency, provide better protection from changing temperatures, and give the home a fresh, updated appearance.

A big thank-you to these wonderful customers for their hospitality and for choosing our team. We hope you enjoy your beautiful new garage doors and have a fantastic summer!

A Job Well Done

It’s always awesome to go back to jobs and see the project complete!!!!

We’re doing our monthly wrap-ups a little differently in June. This month, we’re kicking off a new blog series called Behind the Business, where we’ll share more about our business, our family, and what goes into running a family-owned business.

Behind the Business: Meet the Davis Family

For Josh and Jenni, Davis Garage Doors is more than a business. It’s something they’ve worked hard to build while staying focused on what matters most: family, hard work, and serving their customers well.

Meet Josh Davis

Can you introduce yourself and tell us about your role at Davis Garage Doors?

My name is Josh Davis, and I’m the owner of Davis Garage Doors.

How did you get started in the garage door business?

I got started in the garage door industry by answering an ad in the Tacoma Tribune. Six months later, the owner at Ace Doors called me, and that was the beginning of my career.

What were you doing before you entered this industry?

Before getting into garage doors, I was roofing. I had also just gotten out of the Air Force, and that experience helped shape the way I work today.

Working Together as a Family

What inspired your family to build Davis Garage Doors into what it is today?

Davis Garage Doors started before Jenni and I were together, but things have run very smoothly since she became involved. Having her as part of the business has made a big difference, and we’ve been able to continue growing while keeping family at the center of what we do.

What is it like working together as husband and wife?

Like any husband and wife working together, there have definitely been hard days. But overall, it has been a good thing for us and for the business.

We joke with customers sometimes that I’ve had to fire Jenni a few times, but she just keeps showing back up!

Looking Ahead: the Future of Davis Garage Doors

What is your vision for your family business?

We want to find the right person to take a lead role in our installations so Jenni and I can focus more on sales and service. We have grown enough to keep help around, and as we come into better economic times, we will be looking for more.

I hope one of my sons and daughter gets involved one day as well.

Life Beyond the Doors

What is something outside of work that your family enjoys doing together?

We love camping, fishing, and going to Mariners games.

We work hard, play hard, and are committed to raising strong humans.

How do you balance family time with the demands of running a business?

We do our best to stick to company hours, Monday through Friday. I do still answer the phone seven days a week and sometimes handle sales on weekends, but I’m grateful to do it.

Balance is the key, and most important is our children.

Thanks for Following Along with Us!

We’re excited to share more through our Behind the Business series and give our customers a closer look at the family and work behind Davis Garage Doors.

In the meantime, follow us on Facebook!

April was a good month around here. The sunshine showed up, the jobs kept coming, and we got to help with some really beautiful installs and updates along the way.

We also got to step away for Easter and spend time with family, which means a lot to us. Being family-owned has always shaped how we do business. We work hard, but time with the people we love matters too.

As busy as spring gets, we always want to remind folks not to overlook garage door maintenance. We love a new install, but we also love helping the doors we’ve installed keep doing their job for years to come. A little upkeep now can save a lot later. We’d love to assist you with any of your garage door needs. Contact us today for a free estimate!

If you missed our 5 spring maintenance tips, now’s a great time to give them a quick read in March’s wrap up.

Another Job Well Done!

Another clean install in the books. Thanks to Mountain Valley Construction for a smooth setup and a productive way to wrap up the week. (Liftmaster 98022)

Highlights + Before and Afters

These Haas Model 2010 doors in Ash were a great fit for this custom home in the Manastash area.

A beautiful log cabin, a sunny Friday, and a great-looking new Haas door in Bi-Directional American Walnut. Not a bad way to end the week in Cle Elum.

Josh made the most of the day by working in some training too.

Another beautiful install in Cle Elum! These photos show a recent garage door installation on a red barn-style building with black trim. The finished look is clean, rustic, and modern.

What a fantastic enhancement in Snoqualmie Pass, WA! The before and after pictures effectively demonstrate the upgrade. The shaker flat extra small Garaga Vantage doors in brown color certainly upgrade the look of this residence.

What a beautiful transformation on this log cabin! The team at Davis Garage Doors installed this Haas garage door in the Bi directional American Walnut color in Cle Elum on a sunny Friday! Way to end the week out strong!
