Quality Overhead Door is a second-generation company, focusing on taking care of Valley homes garage door needs for decades. The business has been in the valley for more than 25 years, and Joani Adamson is now the proud President and owner of the business, taking over for her father after he stepped down. “My father decided to take a step back due to health issues and I was asked to take over the company,” shares Adamson. “I took my contractor licenses through the ROC in October of 2016, and we shut down All Valley Garage Door and opened Quality Overhead Door as 100-percent women owned.”
The company caters to higher-end custom homes in the valley, and it is something that Adamson has found they do very well. “What sets us apart from others is the quality and attention we give to the higher end side of garage doors. I have a love for design, so I am able to incorporate that into the decision-making process on what design would look the best.”
There are those that wonder how a woman is finding success in a typically male-dominated industry, but for Adamson, it wasn’t a difficult decision at all. “It was easy to get started in to this line of work when my father owned it before me. I grew up in this industry and would help my father and stepmother at the time in the field when they were freelancers. As a teenager, this wasn’t a glamorous side of business, but it helped me appreciate what my family did.”
The mom-and-pop business strives to provide the best customer service that they can, making it through Covid, the recession, and inflation. For Adamson, she hopes this is just the beginning of all good things to come. “We plan to stick around to hand this business down to the next generation in our family.”
For Adamson, this Certified Women Owned Business is all about the respect of her clients and others in the industry. “I knew that once I took over the business, I wanted to be respected as a female business owner in a male dominated industry.” She aims to provide the best service and quality care that she can with every aspect of the business.
Adamson attributes the accomplishments of Quality Overhead Door to her amazing team of employees, which includes her brother. “He is truly the backbone of this business behind the scenes.” At the end of the day, for Adamson, it is about professionalism and knowledge needed to help run such a successful business.
