Because I had heard about springs breaking in this neighborhood I inquired as to whether "better" than standard springs were an option. I was told that instead of springs rated at 10000 cycles, I could request springs rated at 20000 cycles for an additional $50. I asked whether written specs or a guarantee were provided so I would have something to show what I paid extra for, but this wasn't available. In my opinion, this is asking the customer (me) to take the risk to believe that the seller (IDC) really is providing the "better" product (20000 cycle springs) -- so I had to decide whether to pay the extra $50 for the better springs, which in the end I did request. On the day of the installation, the installer arrived on time. I asked to see the springs and he showed me two different sets of springs (a 10000 cycle set and a 20000 set). But there wasn't any labeling or paperwork to "prove" that I was getting better springs for the extra $50. After the installation, I was provided a general warranty card and a brochure on garage door safety and maintenance. I paid my 1/2 of the total cost plus $50 by check (see above, the association paid the other 1/2) but received neither an invoice describing the work done and components used, nor a receipt for my check. The installation itself went extremely well. The installer was very professional. The old door, components, and tracks needed to be taken down, the new tracks needed to be measured, cut, and attached to the garage, and then the new components assembled and installed. All this required several hours of installation time. Afterwards the installer cleaned up the garage. The new door looks great and much better than the old door. Based on the installation work, I would be very happy to use this company again and rate this experience with all A's. However, I was not happy with the company's lack of concern for providing me with complete documentation for what I was paying for (description of the materials purchased, what the extra $50 covered, guarantee related to purchasing "better" springs, receipt for the check I provided). I think even when customers have no other choice and are required to use a certain vendor, sellers ought to be willing to provide an invoice for the work, some kind of guarantee or even just information on "extras", and a receipt for payment made. Several weeks later I was able to get a copy of the invoice that the vendor had provided to the association for their 1/2 payment, which did list 20,000 cycles springs. Overall, I'm very happy with the installation work, but think that as the end-user customer, I should have received better documentation for this expense from IDC.

Bob was awesome, on time, and helpful. He fixed the connection on the end of the gas line and actually got the grill hooked up and running. Thanks Bob!
Mark Moengen performed the work and his craftsmanship is truly first-rate. He was able to provide necessary structural modifications to secure the valve assembly and had us back in operation promptly. I called late afternoon for an appointment and Mark was at our house the following morning...

I live in a townhome association that requires the use of this specific vendor for garage door replacements. The association pays 1/2 the cost and the homeowner pays 1/2, plus any extra work the homeowner may have done at the same time. I did research other vendors prior to having the door...
Called and came out on a Saturday, replaced our pilot light assembly. Very knowledgeable and courteous.

The average cost to hire a handyman ranges from about $40 to $140 per hour. Average project cost ranges between $180 and $700, but the cost per hour and per project depends heavily on the type, size, and complexity of the project. The pro’s experience level and your location also factor into how much a handyman charges per hour or per project. You can also expect to pay higher rates or additional fees for emergency services, or around periods of high customer demand, like holidays.
The cost of a gas grill burner ranges from $10 to $100 or more, depending on the brand. If you’re replacing one burner, consider replacing all the burners simultaneously. Although it will cost more upfront, it will save you the hassle of replacing a burner every few months, and your grill will cook more evenly and efficiently.
If your grill is relatively new or under warranty, it’s worth fixing. If the warranty has run out, find the cost of parts (usually a burner or grate that’s rusted out). If the parts cost more than half the price of a new grill, it’s worth buying a new one.
However, if your gas grill is a built-in unit as part of an outdoor kitchen, contact the grill manufacturer or distributor to check on warranty coverage. You should also contact a local gas grill repair technician to get an estimate for repairs or a price to replace your built-in grill.
Yes, you should hire a handyman who’s licensed, certified, and insured, if possible. States have different requirements for handyman licensing, registration, and certifications. If licensing is required in your area, you may pay more for a licensed handyman with experience than one who is not licensed or certified, but you’re likely to get a better end result for your project. Be sure to check our state licensing tool to review the local handymen guidelines.
On average, a gas grill can last from five to 15 years. Most grill manufacturers offer an extended warranty, varying in coverage and terms. You can help extend the life of your grill by cleaning it inside and out to remove food, grease, and carbon deposits. Protect your gas grill from the elements with a grill cover to prevent it from rusting, lessening the frequency of repairs.
