How far is Oakland from your San Ramon base?

35 to 40 minutes on 580 through the Dublin grade for most of the city. We pair Oakland with Piedmont and Berkeley stops, so East Bay flatland and hills addresses share the same route days. Fruitvale, Rockridge, and Montclair are all regular territory.

Do you service refrigerators in Oakland apartment buildings?

Constantly. We coordinate access with tenants or on-site managers, leave a written quote for the owner, and document the data plate and repair with photos. For buildings with multiple failing units we can inspect several in one visit and quote each separately.

My Kenmore was built by LG. Do you carry LG parts?

We stock the high-turnover parts for the 795 platform, fan motors, thermistors, and common control boards, plus the Whirlpool 106 equivalents. The data plate photo you send at booking lets us load the right parts before we drive to Oakland, which is how many repairs finish in one visit.

Kenmore in Oakland

Kenmore in Oakland kitchens.

Oakland runs on a huge installed base of Kenmore refrigerators. The craftsman homes in Rockridge and Temescal have kitchens remodeled around counter-depth Elite units, the apartment buildings along International and in Fruitvale carry fleets of basic Frigidaire-built 253 top freezers, and half the garages in the Dimond seem to hold a second Kenmore keeping drinks cold. The badge is the same on all of them. The manufacturer underneath is not, so we identify the real builder from the model prefix before touching parts.

Oakland's food scene also sends us Kenmore work from unexpected places. Small caterers and home-based food businesses often run residential Kenmore freezers hard, and when those cross into true commercial equipment we hand the job to our division Bay Area Refrigeration Service. Either way it is the same San Ramon dispatch, written quotes, 7 days a week.

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.

Evaporator fan failures in apartment-grade top freezers. The 253-series Kenmores in Oakland rental units grind through evaporator fans on a schedule. Cold freezer, warm fridge, sometimes a scraping noise as ice contacts the blade. I replace the motor and correct the defrost fault that let ice reach the fan, otherwise the same unit is back on the board in a year.
Linear compressor decline on Kenmore Elite 795 units. Rockridge and Montclair kitchens hold plenty of LG-built Elite bottom freezers, and their linear compressors lose pumping capacity with age. The fridge runs all day and hovers in the mid 40s. Confirming it requires gauges and a certified tech, which is what EPA 608 Universal means on our side. I give you the sealed system verdict in writing before you spend anything on the repair.
Ice maker module and fill tube freeze-ups. Oakland's older houses often have marginal water pressure at the fridge line, and Kenmore ice makers respond by underfilling until the fill tube freezes solid. People replace the ice maker and the problem returns. I check fill volume and line pressure first, then fix the valve, the tube heater path, or the module, whichever actually failed.
