It's official. I love Roebuck Door Company! Paul & Bill both rocked big time. And when I want to replace my garage door opener remote, or to get a second one, I know where to go.

(Yes, big box stores'n'such have 'em, or I could order online. But I know the one I get from Paul's company will work, and the $35 price is utterly competitive with the offerings at Blue and Orange.)

In related news, I learned that my springs have safety wires, so if they break they won't hit me or my car. And that my doors are cedar, in good shape, and would be "very expensive" to replace (which I wasn't anticipating doing, but it bears out my previous experience that when the Shorettes were here, they went for premium materials and good workmanship).

As unexpected home repair adventures go, this one ranks "splendidly."

Louie and I are waiting for somebody to get back to us for our garage door issues. It's too bad we are so far away from you that a company that helps you can't possibly be the same one that helps us. (And we've had trouble getting through to people around the holidays. We had one excellent handyman come over today, but this is not the same person as the garage door staff.) I'm glad you got such good results, so fast.

Thanks and good luck with your garage door! I'm glad you have an excellent handyman to deal with other issues; they're a treasure, indeed.

It's good to hear from you.
