Garage Door Update -
Well, the good news is the door will be fixed... that is to say, I'll be getting a whole new garage door! Better than the last one... insulated, nice long warranty, free installation, and no interest until May 2006.
Basically, what it came down to was this - to have a pro replace the tension spring would have run about $200. To replace the bottom dented panel of the door would have run $190 just for the panel... not knowing what labor for that would have been. So, in all honesty, and thanks to the tireless shopping that my wife undertook, we got a helluva deal on a better door installed for free! Now I just have to wait until the middle of this week...
