For charges outside the scope of the maintenance contract — vandalism, storm damage, major repairs not covered by the contract — our prices can be as much as 50 percent below those charged by the OEMs.Mid-American offers a full range of contracts that will cover almost any situation. Typically, preventive maintenance is performed monthly. However, daily, weekly, bimonthly and quarterly contracts are also available. We recommend our standard “Full Maintenance” agreement that includes preventive maintenance as well as all straight-time trouble calls and any required major repairs (cables, motors, etc.) on your elevators, all for one fixed monthly price.Mid-American’s mechanics are qualified to service and REPAIR virtually all brands and types of elevators and escalators. This includes equipment from Otis, Westinghouse, Schindler, Montgomery U.S., Haughton, Dover, F. S. Payne, Colley, Automatic, Kone and Armor.
