+1 on what Mike Rowe said.
That said, I've been unpleasantly surprised by some highly recommended gunsmiths & several manufactures of not inexpensive guns & I once had a well known known gunsmith tell me that "you can't expect me to take the time to remove a tight fitting screw w/a thin slot w/o out buggering it up a bit."
I do all the repairs/disassembly I can on my own! I've got lots of time now that I'm retired & a buggered screw is a real pain to properly correct & usually easy to avoid w/a bit of care.
