Could anyone recommend a company to check and adjust my garage door? It has been making a funny noise and either needs adjustment or ?? Thanks

They run an ad in the Daily Sun.

About three years ago, my garage door started doing funny (not ha ha) things. Wouldn't go down all the way unless I gave it two or three tries. Wouldn't go up unless I gave it two or three tries. Did the Wd-40 and everything - no change. Turned out that one of the springs had busted in half. Took a techie.

So - if the WD-40 does not work - call someone.

The counter balance springs on garage doors have a life time of about 7 years (depending on usage). It's a good idea to not walk under a garage door when it is operating - people have been killed doing that when the springs breaks. Most garage doors have a warning sticker on them about proper maintenance.
