While spending over a decade working for others, I discovered that there was an insane demand on field technicians. The boss wanted me to hurry up and get to the next job, just make it work, fix it and move on. The customer desperately had more questions and concerns, but business was business and I needed to keep my job...so I collected money and sped to the next job. So, after many years of undue stress on my family, my sanity, and my pocketbook, I decided in 2017 to make a move. I wanted to do things the right way. I wanted to treat people as if they were a close friend or relative. I wanted them to know everything they could possibly want to know about their garage doors and garage door openers. I wanted to make sure they were heard. I wanted to make sure their home was safe. So, I started State Line Door & Lift.
Missouri does not issue a statewide electrical, plumbing, handyman and general contractor license and delegates licensing and permitting process to the local permitting authority of the city the contractor works in. So a contractor you consider to hire must be in compliance with any local jurisdiction regulations.
