Chainsaw Repair

Does anyone know a place in the Birmingham area where I can get a chainsaw worked on. Last July 14 I took my Homelite XL chainsaw to a repair shop in Oporto-Madrid Ave in Birmingham to have the drive sprocket replaced. I was told this is the only place in Birmingham which will work on it. Their work was cash only, no checks. They said it would be ready in 2 weeks. I gave them 3 weeks and called. They couldn't find the ticket but would call back. We did this dance about a dozen times until finally I left work early one afternoon in mid-SEPTEMBER, went there and told them to find the ticket and chainsaw and I would go to the bank for the money. I got it after a 20 minute search. Now it will run for a short time and stop. I don't want to take it back there because I have little confidence in their work and less confidence in the way they run their business. Does anyone have any suggestions for someone to work on my chainsaw?
