An October 2025 post on Reddit's r/providence carried a warning: the poster wrote that a $1,250 deposit was taken from their elderly father for a garage door repair, and that the person then disappeared. In an October 2025 r/rhodeisland post, the poster added that he later resurfaced claiming deposits are “nonrefundable” and accused them of defamation. Northwest Overhead Door is a garage door company in Burrillville. The other word about it online is older and plainer: in an August 2024 r/RhodeIsland comment, a customer said they got two 9 x 7 insulated doors with glass windows from the company. Its Better Business Bureau grade is an F, with 2 complaints on file. The Rhode Island home improvement contractor registration GC-40684, held by Northwest Overhead Door, is expired; the state registry lists it as invalid.
“Warning: This person took a $1,250 deposit from my elderly father for a garage door repair, then disappeared. After I posted reviews, he resurfaced claiming deposits are “nonrefundable” and accused us of defamation.”
