Is Los Gatos within your normal range from San Ramon?

Yes, at the far end of it, about 50 minutes down 680 through San Jose. We bundle Los Gatos with Saratoga and Los Altos Hills on South Bay days, typically a couple of times a week. Book a day or two out and you get a firm window instead of a hope.

Do you handle condos and townhomes along Los Gatos Boulevard?

Regularly. HOA buildings just need parking guidance and elevator or stair notes at booking. The repairs themselves are the same, and the written quote works fine for owners who need to document appliance work for an HOA or a home warranty reimbursement.

What if the diagnosis says the fridge is not worth fixing?

Then that is what the paper says, with reasons, and the $75 diagnostic is all you spend with us that day. Since new Kenmores do not exist, we will tell you which current brands map closest to what you had, and what to avoid given how your old unit was used. No replacement sales, just the assessment.

Kenmore in Los Gatos

Kenmore in Los Gatos kitchens.

Los Gatos mixes old and new like few towns in the South Bay. Victorian and craftsman cottages near downtown, mid century tracts toward Vasona, townhomes and condos along Los Gatos Boulevard, and hillside homes climbing toward the summit. Kenmore refrigerators appear in all of it, mostly bought in the Sears era and kept because they worked. Sears is gone, and each of those units is really an LG, Whirlpool, or Frigidaire underneath, which is what the model prefix tells me before any wrench comes out.

The older downtown cottages add a wrinkle, tight kitchens with fridges recessed into converted pantry nooks that block airflow, and sometimes original wiring that sags under compressor start load. I check installation and power quality alongside the machine itself, because in these houses the environment causes symptoms the fridge gets blamed for.

We reach Los Gatos on our South Bay routes from San Ramon, seven days a week. $75 diagnostic credited to the repair, written quotes, one year on major parts, two years on sealed system work.

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.

Laundry

How to spot a bad washer drain pump.

LG and Samsung washer drain pumps side by side. When a washer will not drain or hums at the end of a cycle, this small pump is the usual suspect, and the two brands fail in different ways.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Airflow starved units in cottage kitchen nooks. A Kenmore wedged into a downtown Los Gatos alcove runs long, hot, and loud, and its condenser mats over years until cooling fails on warm days. I restore the coil, verify fan performance, and set realistic clearances. The unit is often healthier than the owner fears, it has been suffocating rather than dying.
Damper failures splitting the temperatures. On Kenmore side by sides and French doors, a stuck air damper leaves the freezer perfect and the fridge warm, or overshoots the other way and freezes the crisper. Owners chase thermostat settings for weeks. The damper assembly is a known part on both Whirlpool and LG builds, and replacing it ends the seesaw.
Ice maker assemblies failing on 795 French doors. The LG built 795 units popular in Los Gatos remodels put the ice maker in the door, and the assembly plus its air duct seals fail as a pair, frost first, then no ice. I replace both together and confirm door geometry, because a slightly sagged French door reopens the air leak within months.
