A nice repair guy came to my home from Garage Door Specialists in Morganton, NC to take down old extension spring, and reset cable and torsion spring on one garage door and take off an old weather seal and replace with a new one (I had purchased) for a 2nd door. Entire job was labor. I was happy with the very polite and knowledgeable repairman, his assessment, and job done. I take off one star on this rating though, as their office didn't seem to want to offer even a ballpark estimate for the repairs prior to coming out, and after the job was completed my bill/receipt showed no breakdown & transparency of "costs" for each repair....just one flat cost. My final cost was just over $170 for only labor, no parts, and about 45-50 minutes arrival to leaving. Some surrounding garage repair places quoted me an additional whopping fee to just come out to my home, so I don't know if Garage Door Specialist charged me a travel fee, (as they are located within 10 minutes of my home), but I do know there was no mention of such a fee when I called for services, nor was it specifically listed or written on the bill. The repairman called into his headquarters after the job was completed and gave a verbal breakdown of the repairs and time to a person in the office. I paid the repairman "by check" after the job was completed. Had I chose to pay by credit card GDS would have charged me a 3% fee for a credit card payment. I hope this review helps someone when seeking this kind of service and repair.
