If I don't hear back from someone soon, I move on. To me that just reflects the type of work they will do. I think you are doing the right thing by having someone do it. I'm sure you could but in the chance you get injured is $50 worth not being able to fish all summer?

Well this morning I called Superior Garage Door blindly and his response was, "can we get it done today?"
um.....yeah
$200 and 30 minutes later I was back in business. Upgraded springs that are warrantied for 10yrs and I'm still in one piece.
Sure is a breath of fresh air to call upon services that know how to do business. Answers the phone, is polite and knowledgeable, and makes sure you are happy before they leave.
Thanks

$200 and 30 minutes later I was back in business. The mythical garage door tension spring has had a bad reputation put out on it in the years past. Do one and you will see they are very gentle and kind when done correct

So you made the guy his fuel for a few days........ Don't you enjoy helping the world go round, rather than just worrying about yourself only, and saving a few bucks??? I understand this is a small project and a DIY website, but if we all did our own everything, we may as well go back to being farmers and trade with the natives. lol  Glad you got it fixed! Now you can rest easy it was done correctly and has a warranty.
