What is the response time to Los Altos from San Ramon?

The drive is about 45 minutes via 680 and 237 or 280. We route Los Altos with Mountain View, Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Los Altos Hills calls, so Peninsula days are usually planned a day out. Call in the morning for a down cabinet and we will give you a real committed window.

Do you also service the compact refrigeration in our ADU or guest unit?

Yes. Compact and undercounter units in ADUs and rental units are part of what we do alongside the commercial Traulsen work, and we can look at both on the same Los Altos visit.

How do you price the work?

The $75 diagnostic is waived when you approve the repair. Quotes are written before work starts, and repairs carry a one-year warranty.

Traulsen in Los Altos

Traulsen commercial service.

Downtown Los Altos along Main and State Streets runs cafes, bakeries, and restaurants at a steady professional pace, and several of those kitchens standardized on Traulsen reach-ins for the same reason hospitals do. The cabinets take door traffic without folding. Around the downtown, Los Altos neighborhoods hold remodeled home kitchens where owners installed commercial-grade cabinets, and a growing number of ADUs and guest units with compact refrigeration we also service. All of it is reachable from our San Ramon base on a planned Peninsula run.

Bakery and cafe duty is its own failure profile. Doors cycle from open to close, flour dust loads condenser coils in a way regular kitchens never see, and cabinets often share cramped back-of-house space with proofers and ovens pushing ambient heat at the condenser all day. On newer Traulsens the INTELA-TRAUL fault codes tell us most of the story before panels come off, and older units get proper instrument diagnosis. The quote is written either way.

Commercial refrigeration is handled by our Bay Area Refrigeration Service division. EPA Section 608 Universal certified, CSLB #1136642, $75 diagnostic waived with repair, seven days a week.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Flour and dust loading on condenser coils. Bakery environments pack the top-mounted Traulsen condenser with flour dust that bonds into a felt-like mat, and head pressure climbs until the unit trips during afternoon bakes. Brushing the coil face is not enough. We clean through the coil depth, verify pressures, and set a cleaning interval that matches a bakery's dust load, which is shorter than anyone expects.
Uneven cabinet temperatures from fan and airflow faults. A cafe cabinet holding dairy up top and going soft on the bottom shelves has an airflow problem, usually the evaporator fan motor or a blocked air channel from over-packing. We test the motor under load, clear the airflow path, and verify shelf-to-shelf temperature spread so product stops dying in the warm corner.
Gasket wear from all-day door traffic. Counter-service kitchens open the reach-in from morning prep to closing, and gaskets wear at the latch corner first. The cabinet sweats, ices the coil, and run time climbs. We fit correct Traulsen-profile gaskets, check the hinge cartridges while the doors are apart, and confirm the perimeter heater keeps the frame dry.
