Highly recommended. Our original home's old opener finally broke its drive gear at the eighteen year use mark. From what I've see on YouTube, it is futile to replace a garage door opener without first having a good door alignment (springs adjustment); as this will potentially advance the wearing of the new opener's gears with extra unnecessary tension caused by door's weight. The door itself should easily open and shut on its own, taking the wear off the opener's gear itself (YouTube called this "balancing the door"). I thought about installing myself, but, being a novice, the winded spring adjustment seems one potentially dangerous task; so decided to have everything done professionally. Matt installed the replacement garage opener and aligned the door springs very timely and professionally. Even if I had worked up the guts to do the torsion spring adjustment myself, that plus the opener replacement would have been a whole day's work for me. Appreciate the help.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the thoughtful review, Damon! You explained the importance of proper garage door balance perfectly, making sure the springs are correctly adjusted is key to protecting the opener and ensuring long term performance.
