Appliances in Albany kitchens.
Albany is a small, dense city in Alameda County wedged between Berkeley and El Cerrito, just 1.8 square miles and about 20,000 people, ZIP 94706. The lots are small and the kitchens follow, so a lot of our calls here are for compact and 24 to 30 inch appliances instead of the full-size units we see elsewhere.
Most of the housing is 1920s to 1940s stucco and wood bungalows on the Marin Avenue grid, with small kitchens that run GE, Whirlpool, and Bosch in the compact and slim sizes. ADUs and basement units add second kitchens with stacked or apartment-size units, and the UC Village family housing along Buchanan Street is mostly university-supplied GE and Whirlpool stock that sees heavy turnover use.
Solano Avenue is the spine, a dense strip of small restaurants, cafes, and bakeries shared with North Berkeley, and San Pablo Avenue crosses it with more storefronts. That corridor and the homes up on Albany Hill round out the calls, mostly reach-in coolers and prep line equipment for the cafes plus standard kitchen repair on the hill.
We are based in San Ramon, so Albany is a 40 to 45 minute run down 580 or over 24 to 80. We pair it with the Berkeley and Richmond Inner East Bay route.
