Does Albany fit your normal service area, even at 1.8 square miles?

It does. We work Albany into the same day as our Berkeley and Richmond Inner East Bay calls, and San Ramon to Albany is roughly 40 to 45 minutes on I-580 or Highway 24 to I-80. An after-hours call gets the same treatment as anywhere else on that route if a machine drops during service.

Do you carry Spaceman parts or have to order them?

The van already carries barrel seals, scraper blades, and the sensors and drive parts we replace most. A control board or a compressor part specific to your model gets sourced, with the wait time noted in the quote.

What does a repair typically cost?

You pay $75 for the diagnostic, and it's applied to the repair once you say go. We write the price down, parts and labor both, before anything gets ordered.

Spaceman in Albany

Spaceman commercial service.

Albany's small restaurants and bakeries run tight along Solano Avenue in 94706, the strip shared with North Berkeley, and a frozen-beverage or soft-serve machine behind one of those counters has to perform in a compact dining room with no back kitchen to fall back on. In a city that covers only 1.8 square miles, a Spaceman machine stuck at half-frozen or an auger that's quit turning costs a shop its whole afternoon rush. We handle Spaceman repairs on site rather than having you haul a barrel of ruined mix anywhere.

The drive from San Ramon to Albany runs 40 to 45 minutes on I-580 or Highway 24 to I-80, and it's part of our Berkeley and Richmond Inner East Bay routing. Common Spaceman wear parts and refrigeration tools travel in the van, so a first visit usually ends in a diagnosis and a number, not a return trip. Refrigerant and gas work runs under CSLB #1136642 with EPA certification. The $75 diagnostic comes off the bill once you approve the repair, and we don't start work until you've signed a written quote.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Compressor and refrigeration faults. When a machine won't pull the mix down to freezing, or it short-cycles instead of running steady, the sealed system is usually the cause. We check the charge, test the circuit under pressure, and make the repair under our EPA and CSLB licensing.
Beater and auger motor and drive. A stalling, grinding, or breaker-tripping auger points to the drive train. We inspect the motor, gearbox, and couplings to find the actual failure before replacing anything.
Mix-low sensors and control boards. A dead control panel or a mix-low alarm going off with a full hopper both start at the sensor circuit. We isolate the sensor from the board and replace only the part that's actually failed.
Barrel seals and scraper blades. Mix leaking from the barrel, product texture going grainy, or a hard cold start all come back to the barrel seals and scraper blades wearing out. We replace those and check the barrel surface for scoring.
