Why a Preventative Maintenance Agreement?
At Durham Mechanical Services, Inc., we don't offer anything fancy, no gimmicks. We don't sell Preventative Maintenance Agreements for $9.95, nor do we guarantee that your unit will never break down. All we offer is quality service at honest prices. Our company was founded on these principles and we continue to live by them. Please remember that our company is large enough to service our customer's needs while being small enough to know our customers. A Preventative Maintenance Agreement from DMS provides peace of mind for you and your family each and every season.
The benefits of a Preventative Maintenance Agreement are:
