Default El LH front Calliper

This calliper imaking a clicking sound and it has bem dignosed as needing a rebuild. Is this a job a DIY could do ( with help from a gregory's) or is it a job for a place like AB brakes?.(or could any workshop do it?) I ask this as they quote about $4-500. I understand you can buy a kit or is it easier to buy a nes w calliper?
Also it would need new pads done at the same time , any thoughts on a good average (not performance) pad. Lots of questions I know.
thanks for any help .

Its not that hard if you have been trained how to do it, but I suggest if you have no idea how to do it and being such an important part of the car, I would say leave it up to the experts
