Owner-operated. Chicago crews, flat-rate pricing, and same-day service across the city.
Today we run service trucks across Cook, DuPage and Lake counties. We've answered emergency calls in every weather Chicago can throw at us — wind chills below zero, lake-effect snow, summer thunderstorms.
What hasn't changed: every repair gets balanced by hand, safety-tested, and warrantied. We don't sub out our work, and we don't try to talk you into a new door when a $90 spring will fix it.
Our founder answers his first emergency call — a snapped torsion spring on a Bucktown two-flat — and starts taking calls from his kitchen table.
We move into a 4,000 sq ft shop on Elston Avenue. Hire the first apprentices. Add commercial repair contracts to the residential service side.
An off-track door in Rogers Park, fixed in 75 minutes. The homeowner — a retired CTA dispatcher — sends us a six-pack of Old Style. We still have the bottle openers.
Smart openers become standard work — every repair truck now carries Wi-Fi diagnostic gear and battery-backup retrofit kits.
If we say 9 a.m., we're at your alley by 8:55. Emergency repair calls get a 2-hour response window across Chicagoland — no exceptions, no pushback.
We diagnose in front of you, not in the truck. If a $40 spring fixes it, we don't sell you a $1,200 door. If your door is past saving, we'll say that too.
Every install, every repair: warrantied for the life of the door — not "12 months parts and labor" fine-print. If something we touched fails, we come back.
No upsells, no high-pressure visits. We'll come measure, give you a written estimate, and let you decide.
