Broken Spreadsheet Rescue

Your business depends on a spreadsheet someone else built. Now it's broken — and everything that depends on it is stalled. Submit before noon. Fixed and back in your hands by end of business, guaranteed.

How the Rescue Works

We don't schedule discovery calls for this. You share the file, describe what's broken, and we get to work. The clock starts the moment we have it — and it stops when you have it back, fixed.

Step 01 — Morning

Submit the File

Share the broken file and tell us what it's supposed to do and what it's currently doing wrong. No intake form with 40 fields — a message, a description, and an attachment is enough. We scope it immediately and confirm same-day delivery before we begin.

Orders submitted before 12:00 PM EST are guaranteed delivered by end of business the same day. If we can't make that timeline for any reason, we tell you before we start — not after.

Step 02

Diagnose the Failure

We open the file and trace the failure from its source. Broken VLOOKUP chains that reference sheets that no longer exist. Circular reference loops that lock calculation. Pivot table source ranges that stopped updating after a schema change. Array formulas that spill into merged cells. Macros that throw runtime errors because a dependency was removed.

Most spreadsheet failures have a specific, traceable root cause — and finding it is the job. We document what broke and why before we change a single cell.

Step 03

Repair & Rebuild

We fix the formulas, restructure the logic, and rebuild whatever needs rebuilding — cleanly, with named ranges and clear structure so the next person who opens it can understand what they're looking at. If the file is bloated, we strip the dead weight. If the formatting is fighting the formulas, we resolve the conflict.

For from-scratch builds: tell us what you need — any model, tracker, calculator, or reporting tool you can describe — and we build it to spec. Ordered before noon, delivered by close of business. Any spreadsheet you can imagine.

Step 04 — Same Day

Test, Document & Deliver

Before we send it back, we stress-test the fix with representative data — edge cases, blank inputs, boundary values. We verify that every formula chain resolves correctly and that the outputs are what they should be.

You receive the repaired file plus a plain-English summary of what was broken, what we changed, and why. Back in your inbox before you close your laptop.

What We Fix & Build

Every Spreadsheet Problem We Solve

If it lives in Excel or Google Sheets and it isn't working right, we fix it. If you need something built from scratch, we build it — same day.

Formula Errors & Broken Chains

#REF!, #VALUE!, #NAME? — traced to the source and resolved, with clean formula logic replacing whatever broke.

Circular References & Calculation Lock

Circular dependency loops that freeze recalculation — identified, restructured, and eliminated without destroying the logic they supported.

Pivot Table & Data Source Failures

Broken pivot table source ranges, stale data connections, and mis-structured underlying data — rebuilt so the pivot updates correctly on refresh.

File Size & Performance

47MB files that take 90 seconds to open — stripped of volatile formulas, dead data, and unnecessary formatting that accumulates over years of use.

Macro & VBA Failures

Runtime errors, broken object references, and deprecated methods — debugged and rebuilt so automation runs reliably again.

From-Scratch Builds

Any model, tracker, calculator, or reporting tool — built clean, documented, and delivered the same day you order it.

Common Questions

Spreadsheet Rescue: Questions & Answers

What kinds of spreadsheet problems can you fix?

Broken formulas, circular references, corrupted pivot tables, failed macros, bloated file sizes, broken data connections, conditional formatting conflicts, array formula errors, and VBA runtime failures — in both Excel and Google Sheets. If it lives in a spreadsheet and it isn't working, we fix it.

Can you build a spreadsheet from scratch?

Yes, and same-day. Tell us what you need — a financial model, a project tracker, a commission calculator, an inventory system, a pricing tool — describe the inputs and outputs you want, and we build it. Order before noon and it's in your inbox by end of business.

Is my data secure when I share the file?

Yes. Files are handled directly by our team, not passed through third-party services. We do not retain your data after delivery. If your file contains sensitive business or client information, we can discuss an NDA before you share anything.

What if the problem is more complex than expected?

We scope every job before we confirm same-day delivery. If we review your file and determine it requires more than a same-day turnaround, we tell you immediately and give you a timeline and price before any work begins. We do not start and then surprise you with a scope expansion.

Do you work in both Excel and Google Sheets?

Yes. Both platforms, including Excel VBA macros, Google Apps Script automations, Excel Power Query, Google Sheets IMPORTRANGE connections, and native formula libraries in either environment. If you need a file converted from one platform to the other, we handle that too.

What comes after the fix?

That depends on what you want. Some clients receive the repaired file and are done. Others, once the spreadsheet is working again, ask us to show them how a simple Python script or cloud-connected automation could replace the manual process entirely — eliminating the spreadsheet dependency at the root. We can walk through that option after delivery, with no obligation.
