About
I work with many fitness manufacturers so I receive discounts on parts and pass that onto the customer. Also many customers are not aware that the part need for the repair may be under warranty still. I work for many companies such as Sole, Nordictrack, Bowflex, Horizon, so let me work with you to get your fitness equipment repaired!

Did a great job replacing belt on my treadmill. Had to order the belt but it came in quickly. Repair was done soon thereafter. For the agreed upon price which was reasonable.

I hired Brian to perform a tuneup on my 4 1/2 year old Bodyguard 240P treadmill yesterday. We had a large snowstorm the prior night and the roads were still horrible the next day. Brian called me about 20 minutes ahead of the scheduled time to let me know he was running late--very professional. When he showed up he had a complete tool kit with him and we then proceeded to my basement exercise room. Over the course of the next hour Brian performed all the diagnostic functions, aligned my belt, lubed my deck (showed me some "tricks" to make it easier when I did it by myself the next time and also how to properly "walk" the lubricant onto the deck, inspected the motor, vacuumed and cleaned the components "under the hood" and cleaned the rest of my read mill as well. All the time explaining what he was doing and why. He was personable and professional and went out of his way to answer every question I had. I will not wait 4 1/2 years again for a tune up. I will have Brian out every year to perform this key function. Oh..by the way Brian's price was less than half of what the "authorized dealer" wanted to charge me (probably with subcontracted labor that was far inferior to Brian). If you have a treadmill and have waited to get it tuned up because you thought it was too expensive or didn't know who to call Call Brian at Modern Services. Great job Brian and THANKS!

Brian was wonderful! He responded immediately to my work request and was easy to get in touch with. He came out and was able to diagnose the problem right away. He ordered the parts I needed and had the Job finished quickly. He was extremely professional and helpful. I would absolutely work with him again and highly recommend him!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My pricing is upfront and I work to for many different manufacturers so I receive discounts on parts so I pass that along to you. I let you know the worst case scenario and hope that in the end its less but at least you are aware of what it can cost in full before we meet.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We talk through text, phone, or email and I try to diagnose the machine before making an appointment.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Been working on fitness equipment for years. Its my passion!
