Tim Grugle has served this area through two different third-party fire safety companies for more than 20 years. As your neighbor, Tim can more affordably serve your facility through the creation of, Tim’s Techs, a fully licensed and insured service and safety company located in Lindale, Texas. If you use companies out of your area for service, you pay extra for them to drive to you. Utilizing Tim’s Techs will mean quicker response time, increased efficiency and will decrease the cost through staff training and direct support from the owner directly.

A Note from Tim (Chopper) Grugle

I have been a sub-contractor in East Texas for 20 years, where I have served establishments in many counties. I have provided phone support, rolled on emergency service calls, completed inspections and maintenance, performed new installations and more. I was doing everything required to service my customers as a sub-contractor completely unsupervised which lead to the realization that I was already running my own business. I work hard to take great care of my clients and didn’t always agree with the way the staff at the homes I serviced were treated by a third party, so I formed my own company. Now, I am accepting a limited number of customers as I grow. I may be small, however, that is not a disadvantage to you. It means when you call for help you will be speaking directly to me and not relying on a third person.
