How quickly can you get to Newark from your San Ramon base?

Around 30 minutes: 680 south, then 84 toward the Dumbarton, and we are at Thornton Avenue. Newark routes naturally with Fremont and Union City for us, so a same-day slot is realistic most days. We operate 7 days a week.

Do you service equipment for catering companies, not just restaurants?

Yes, and Newark has plenty of them. Mobile and warehouse-based Continental units are a normal part of our route. Same terms apply: $75 diagnostic waived with repair, written quote first, one year warranty on the repair.

The compressor on our prep table trips the breaker. Replace it?

Not yet. A tripping breaker often points to a shorted run capacitor or a locked rotor caused by high head pressure, both far cheaper than a compressor. I measure amp draw and superheat before condemning anything. Condemning a good compressor is the most expensive mistake in this trade.

Continental Refrigerator in Newark

Continental Refrigerator commercial service.

Newark's food economy is bigger than it looks from the freeway. The restaurants along Thornton Avenue, the food court operators at NewPark Mall, and the catering companies working out of the industrial parks near the Dumbarton approach all run commercial cold equipment, and Continental prep tables and reach-ins are common in these kitchens because they hold up to volume.

Commercial refrigeration in Newark goes through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, our dedicated division at ADRIUM Service Solutions. EPA Section 608 Universal certification covers the refrigerant side, CSLB #1136642 covers the license side, and a written quote covers you before any work begins.

Catering kitchens are my most frequent Newark stop. Equipment there gets moved, loaded on trucks, and run on generator power, which is exactly how start components and door gaskets die young. I check the basics first because in this environment the basics are what fail.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Start relay failures on units that get moved and power-cycled. Catering operations around Newark's industrial parks unplug and replug Continental units constantly, and rapid power cycling against standing head pressure burns out start relays. The compressor hums, trips, and the crew assumes the worst. I test the relay and capacitor, confirm compressor amp draw, and most of these boxes run again within the hour.
Grease-loaded condensers in high-volume fry kitchens. The fried chicken and Filipino kitchens along Thornton Avenue put airborne grease into every condenser in the room. On a Continental worktop cooler that means climbing head pressure and a compressor cycling on overload before failing for real. A proper coil cleaning and a pressure check usually buys the unit years.
Cabinet flooding from frozen drain lines. When a Continental reach-in floods its own floor, the condensate line has typically frozen at the evaporator pan. I clear the ice, verify the drain heater if equipped, and fix the frost source. In a mall food court stall, standing water is a health inspection problem, so I treat these calls as urgent.
