This. Cutting the nut slots, initial relief, leveling the frets (if one fret is proud, it determines the action for all of them) are all things that I'd rather leave to someone experienced in them. Given that a setup is something that I seldom need (the last times that the Froggy or Ye Olde Mac were setup was in the early 2000s. I have had them looked at, and still are good. Both get a seasonal truss rod tweak.), paying a pro seems to be a no brainer.
OMMV
