What is the travel time from your San Ramon base to Los Altos?

Roughly 45 minutes via 680 and 280. We group Los Altos with Mountain View, Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Los Altos Hills on Peninsula route days, so you get a reliable confirmed window instead of a maybe.

Our Kenmore is older than our kids. Is it worth putting money into?

If the compressor and sealed system are healthy, usually yes. The old Whirlpool-built machines are simple and their parts are cheap. The diagnostic answers the question definitively, and you get my recommendation in the written quote, not a sales pitch.

Do you do anything besides Kenmore?

Yes, built-in and luxury appliance repair across the Bay Area is our main work, Sub-Zero to Monogram. So if the remodel added a built-in and the garage still runs the old Kenmore, one visit can cover both.

Kenmore in Los Altos

Kenmore in Los Altos kitchens.

Los Altos still has street after street of ranch homes, and many of them are on their first or second refrigerator ever. The Kenmore that came from the Sears at San Antonio decades ago is often still in service, in the kitchen or demoted to the garage after a remodel. These are repairable machines, and I would rather fix a solid one than watch it go to the curb over a $40 relay.

The badge is not the machine. Kenmore was built by Whirlpool, LG, and Frigidaire in different years, so the model prefix on the data plate determines every part I order. That one habit keeps repairs to a single return visit.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

Laundry

How to spot a bad washer drain pump.

LG and Samsung washer drain pumps side by side. When a washer will not drain or hums at the end of a cycle, this small pump is the usual suspect, and the two brands fail in different ways.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Ice maker module worn out on side-by-sides. The modular ice maker in Whirlpool-built Kenmores has test points that let me confirm the module failure on the spot, separate from the water valve and fill tube. Los Altos water is hard enough that scaled valves cause half the complaints blamed on the module, so testing before replacing matters.
Defrost sensor drift on LG-built 795 units. Remodeled Los Altos kitchens often got a Kenmore Elite French door in the 2010s, and the defrost sensors on those drift with age. The fridge coil ices, water shows up under the crispers, and temperatures wander. I meter the sensors against spec and replace the one that is actually out.
Door gasket shrinkage on decades-old units. Original gaskets on 90s and 2000s Kenmores shrink and harden until the door seals in name only. The unit runs long, ices up, and works twice as hard as it should. A fresh gasket is cheap life extension for an otherwise healthy machine.
