How far is Martinez from your San Ramon base?

Martinez is a 30 to 35 minute run up 680. I fold it into the Diablo Valley window with Concord and Pleasant Hill, so I am out that direction on routed days each week.

Can you pull a fridge in an older downtown kitchen without damage?

Yes. The downtown Victorians and Craftsmans have tight runs and original floors. I bring floor protection and walk the fridge out clean. That is part of the job, not an extra.

Do you service Sub-Zero out in Alhambra Valley?

Regularly. Sub-Zero column sealed-system work is usually two visits, one to diagnose and order, one to install and weigh in the charge. I am EPA 608 Universal certified.

Refrigeration Repair in Martinez

Refrigeration Repair in Martinez.

Martinez is one ZIP, 94553, but the refrigeration work splits cleanly. Downtown and the older neighborhoods off Alhambra Avenue are Victorian and Craftsman homes retrofitted over the years, and Vine Hill, Mountain View, and Virginia Hills add mid-century ranch stock. Those kitchens run GE, LG, Whirlpool, and KitchenAid freestanding fridges, and the calls are icemakers, drain pumps, and frosted-up defrost systems. The older homes have tight kitchen runs and original flooring, so I bring floor protection and pull the fridge out slow rather than dragging it over a soft old floor.

Alhambra Valley is the other Martinez. Bigger semi-rural lots and a remodel-kitchen layer running Sub-Zero columns and Bosch built-ins, with a Wolf range in the cooking line. The sealed-system work follows the Sub-Zero. A panel-ready column drifting in temperature needs the condenser, the evap fan, and the charge checked in order, not a part thrown at it. I diagnose with a manifold and a scale before I order.

What the work looks like

A built-in sealed-system leak repair.

Nitrogen pressure and a soap-bubble test on a built-in fridge line set. We map every leak source before we braze.

The corroded copper up close. After fifteen-plus years this is why a real fix rebuilds the sealed run, so you do not pay the labor twice.

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.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Icemaker assembly, in-town French-door. No production usually means the assembly, not the valve, on the GE, LG, and Samsung units common in town. Current version installed, serial checked for coverage.
Defrost drain and heater, ranch stock. Ice on the back panel and a warming box. Thaw the drain, replace the heater, run a defrost cycle to confirm it clears.
Condenser and evap fan, Alhambra Valley built-ins. Sub-Zero columns warm after the condenser grille blocks or the fan motor wears. I clean the coil and swap the fan, then verify the temperature hold over time.
Sealed-system leak, estate columns. Recovery, weigh-in by scale, 24-hour vacuum on Sub-Zero columns. EPA 608 certified, charge set by weight.
