I can only speak from personal experience with Disk Warrior. I have never had it cause damage (and I have always let it do whatever it wants without modification because I never found anything wanting) and it has gotten me out of trouble on more than one occasion. I can't guarantee that it will solve your problems but I think that it has a better shot at it than anything else.
