Frequently Asked Questions
Does NHS serve Franklin?
Yes. Franklin (46131) is 15 minutes south of our Greenwood HQ on US-31 — one of our most-frequent service areas. We're in Franklin weekly for residential and small commercial work, and same-week scheduling is the norm.
What's the drive time from Greenwood to Franklin?
About 15 minutes door-to-door straight down US-31. That keeps Franklin jobs fast and affordable — no extra trip charge for the distance.
What Franklin neighborhoods does NHS work in?
All of them. Historic downtown around the Johnson County courthouse and Franklin College. Established subdivisions like Hurricane Hill, Hampton Hills, Province Park, and King's Mill. Plus newer construction along SR-44 and the north side.
Does NHS work on Franklin's historic downtown homes?
Yes — and a lot of it. Late-1800s plaster, hand-cut trim, and old electrical are common in downtown Franklin. We do plaster patches with mesh-tape transitions, replace fixtures while preserving original hardware where we can, and adjust doors that have settled over 130 years.
How much does garage door repair cost in Franklin?
Most Franklin garage door repairs (spring replacement, roller swaps, cable fixes) run $185-$485. Opener motor + remote pairing: $245-$540. Full new garage door install (single bay): $850-$1,490 plus the door itself. Franklin's mix of historic-downtown homes (where the garage is often a detached single-bay) and Province Park-area newer builds (double-bay torsion) means we carry parts for both. The 2010-era Province Park springs are hitting end-of-life right now.
How much for TV mounting in Franklin vaulted-ceiling homes?
Standard TV mount on drywall (under 75-inch): $150-$250 plus the mount hardware. Vaulted living-room mount with in-wall HDMI conceal + power relocation: $290-$485. Most Franklin builder-home jobs are the vaulted-ceiling variety.
Can NHS bundle multiple repairs in one Franklin visit?
Yes — our Honey-Do Hub combo visits bundle multiple small repairs into one trip. Common Franklin combos: garage door tune-up + TV mount + ceiling fan install, or drywall touch-up + paint + faucet swap. A typical 2-3 hour Honey-Do Hub visit runs $295-$540 depending on materials. We charge for time + parts, no per-task gimmicks.
Does NHS work on commercial properties around the Franklin square?
Yes. We handle small commercial work for shops, offices, and rentals around the square and along US-31 — door hardware, drywall, paint, lighting swaps, restroom fixtures. Net-30 invoicing available for established commercial clients.
