Tell me what's wrong
Here's how I'd fix it and what it starts at. No service call fee.
01
My spring snapped.
What I do: I check both springs, the cables and the drums. Then I swap the broken spring (both, if they're the same age) and balance the door so it lifts right.
Starting at$249
02
My door won't close.
What I do: Most of the time it's the safety sensors. I realign them, check the wiring and the close settings, and test it until it shuts every single time.
Starting at$119
03
My opener hums, but nothing moves.
What I do: First I figure out if it's the opener or the door: a stripped gear, a worn trolley, or a spring that quit. Then I fix the real cause, not just the symptom.
Starting at$119
04
My door came off the track.
What I do: First I make it safe so it can't drop. Then I set it back in the track, straighten what's bent and swap any rollers that are done.
Starting at$149
05
A cable snapped or it's fraying.
What I do: A bad cable means the door lifts lopsided. I replace the cables on both sides, re-spool the drums and balance everything out.
Starting at$159
06
It's loud, shaky or slow.
What I do: Usually worn rollers, loose hardware or a spring out of balance. My checkup tightens, lubes and tests everything, and tells you straight if anything else needs work.
Starting at$79.99
Not doing new door or opener installs yet. I'm focused on repairs right now and doing them right. Installs are coming as I grow.
Emergency
Can't wait? Call me.

Door hanging off the track
Spring snapped, door down
After hours I pick up whenever I can, and I'll tell you any after-hours charge before I head over.
Your furnace gets one every year. Your garage door should too. For $79.99 I go over all eight of these and tell you straight what's fine, what can wait, and what can't.

How it works
1
Call, text or book
Tell me what the door's doing. A photo by text helps me bring the right parts.
2
I show up
I check it out, explain it in plain English, and give you the price.
Fixed in the nick of time
Nothing starts until you say yes. Then I fix it and test it with you.
My promise
No service call fee.
A price you approve before I start.
If something I fixed isn't right, I'll come back and make it right.
Hey, I'm Nick.
I grew up right here in Delaware, Ohio. I gave college a try, and it wasn't for me. I've always wanted to build something of my own, so I picked a trade where I could keep learning, grow a business and stand on my own two feet. That's Nick of Time.
When you call, I answer. When the truck pulls up, it's me, and I stand behind every job.
I'm a Christian, and this business is my ministry: honest prices, on time, and your home treated like mine.
"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters."
My goal on every job is simple: fix your door right the first time, tell you the truth about it, and be the guy you'd call again. These four things are how I do it.
On time
I text you when I'm on my way. If the job before yours runs long, you hear it from me before you have to ask.
My yes means yes
The price you approve is the price you pay. If I say I'll be there, I'm there. If something I fixed isn't right, I come back and make it right.
Let your yes be yes.Matthew 5:37
Straight talk
I tell you what's fine, what can wait and what can't. I won't sell you a part your door doesn't need.
Your home like mine
I'm careful with your stuff, keep the work area clean, test the door with you, and sweep up before I leave.

Straight answers
Do you charge a service call fee?
Nope. Coming out to look is free. I tell you the price before I touch anything, and you decide.
Can I replace a broken spring myself?
Please don't. Those springs hold enough tension to lift a door that weighs a couple hundred pounds, and they hurt people every year. Leave the door down, don't run the opener, and call me.
My door is stuck open. Is that an emergency?
If your house isn't secure or your car is stuck inside, yes. Call me directly. After hours, I pick up for emergencies whenever I can.
How fast can you get here?
Same day when my schedule allows. Booking online shows the next open times. For an emergency, calling is the fastest way to reach me.
What's in the $79.99 annual checkup?
A full tune-up and safety check: opener force and travel, springs and balance, cables and drums, emergency release cord, tracks and alignment, rollers, hinges and lube, safety sensors and auto-reverse, bottom weather seal. I'll tell you what I found and what can wait.
Do you install new doors and openers?
Not yet. Right now I'm focused on repairs and doing them right. Installs are coming as I grow. If your door really needs replacing, I'll tell you straight.
