How far is San Leandro from your base in San Ramon?

About 25 to 30 minutes over the hill on 580. San Leandro runs on our route with Oakland, Hayward, and Alameda, so we cross the city regularly. Morning calls have a strong chance of same-day service.

Can you tell over the phone whether my Kenmore is worth fixing?

I can narrow it down if you describe the symptom and text a photo of the data plate, and I will say so honestly if it sounds terminal. The firm answer needs meters on the machine. That is what the $75 diagnostic is, and it disappears into the repair cost when you approve the quote.

Do you work on commercial refrigerators for San Leandro restaurants?

Yes, through Bay Area Refrigeration Service, our commercial division. True commercial equipment, reach-ins, prep tables, and walk-ins, is a different discipline from residential Kenmore work, and routing it through the division gets you the right tech and the right parts.

Kenmore in San Leandro

Kenmore in San Leandro kitchens.

San Leandro's bungalows in Estudillo Estates and Broadmoor were built with modest kitchens, and the refrigerators in them tend to be practical Kenmore top freezers and side-by-sides that owners keep running rather than replace. Add the garage freezer culture along Washington Avenue and out toward the Marina, where a chest freezer holds the bulk shopping, and you get a city where a dead Kenmore is a genuine household problem. We read the data plate first on every call because the badge hides three possible manufacturers with three different parts catalogs.

San Leandro also has a deep bench of food businesses, and when a repair call turns out to be a true commercial reach-in or walk-in, it moves to our division Bay Area Refrigeration Service without you having to make a second phone call. Residential or commercial, the terms are written quotes, 7 days a week, from our San Ramon base. ADRIUM Service Solutions, owner Andrew Kuznetsov, EPA Section 608 Universal certified, CSLB #1136642, $75 diagnostic waived with repair, 1-year repair warranty.

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.

Start relay and overload failures on kitchen units. The classic San Leandro call is a Kenmore that clicks, hums, and sits warm in a Broadmoor kitchen. The PTC relay has cracked or the overload has fatigued. I confirm the compressor windings are healthy, install the OEM pair, and verify a clean start and stable amp draw before I consider the job done.
Chest freezer thermostat and gasket problems. Garage chest freezers here fail quietly. A drifted cold control lets the temperature ride up to 15 or 20 degrees, or a hardened lid gasket lets moist air feed a slow ice buildup. Either way food safety erodes without an obvious alarm. I check both on every San Leandro chest freezer visit because they so often fail together.
Defrost heater failure on frost-free models. Frost-free Kenmore uprights and top freezers in San Leandro give a reliable pattern when the defrost heater opens, ice sheet on the rear freezer panel and a fridge section losing its cool over about two weeks. I meter the heater and bias thermostat, replace the failed piece, and melt the evaporator clear the same visit.
