Leaving for the summer?
If you spend the summer up north, the house sits closed through hurricane season. Before you leave, have the door checked, unplug the opener or lock the manual latch, and give a neighbor a way to reach us. pending Ask about a mid-season check while you're away.
A tune-up isn't a sales visit
If everything is fine, the list says 'fine'. If something is wearing, we show you the part and tell you how long it probably has left. You decide.
