How long does it take you to get to Richmond?

We are based in San Ramon, so Richmond is a 40-to-45-minute run up 580 or through Berkeley. We pair it with the Berkeley and Oakland route and give booked calls a written arrival time before the truck leaves.

My LG fridge stopped cooling. I heard there was a recall.

It wasn't a recall. There was a class-action settlement over these compressors, and its claim window has closed. What can still help is LG's own warranty: 10 years on the linear compressor part from purchase, the labor for the first 5. We look up your serial and purchase date before opening the panel and tell you what's covered before any work.

Do you service Sub-Zero and Bosch built-ins in Point Richmond, or only standard fridges?

Both. The Point Richmond and Marina Bay remodels run Sub-Zero columns and Bosch built-in, and sealed-system and defrost work on those is regular for us. We are EPA 608 certified and weigh-in charge with a scale, no guessing.

Refrigeration Repair in Richmond

Refrigeration Repair in Richmond.

Richmond covers four ZIPs, 94801, 94804, 94805, and 94806, and the fridge work splits cleanly by neighborhood. Through the Annex, the Iron Triangle, and out toward Hilltop the stock is older bungalow and mid-century, running GE, LG, Samsung, Whirlpool, and Maytag. Those are the workhorse calls: evap-fan motors, drain pumps, and dead icemakers. On the linear-compressor-era LG units we pull the serial and check it, with the purchase date, against LG's compressor warranty before we open anything. Samsung refrigerator repairs, especially ice-maker repairs, are often expensive and may not be worth doing. The service kit includes the control board, ice maker, drain heater and clips. We diagnose for $99, credited toward the repair, and explain the cost before any work.

Point Richmond and the Marina Bay waterfront are the other layer. Restored Victorians and newer townhomes with Bosch and KitchenAid built-in, and a Sub-Zero column or two in the remodels. That is where the sealed-system work lives. When a Sub-Zero column slowly loses temperature we recover the charge, find the leak, and weigh the system back in by scale instead of topping it off blind. We diagnose to the fault, quote it in writing, and hold the box on a temperature pull-down before we leave.

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 handle.

Evaporator-fan motor and drain-pump service. Mainstream fridges through the Annex and Iron Triangle. Box warming or water pooling. We confirm timing after the on-site diagnosis.
