No one ever wants to be stuck in an elevator…especially at home. Keeping your elevator maintained will help to keep it running for a long time…and will spare you repair costs down the road. That’s why we offer affordable South Jersey residential elevator maintenance to homeowners in South Jersey, the Philadelphia area and beyond.
Many residential elevators do not have emergency phones, which could be disastrous in an elevator stoppage. In addition, many residential elevators don’t run every day, which can cause failures from lack of use. With residential elevators especially, proper function is vitally important.
In addition to our 24/7 service as needed, our yearly preventive maintenance visits help take the worry out of taking care of your elevator. Your elevator’s function is vitally important to us, so we perform a 14-point check with each visit:
