How do you schedule Woodside from San Ramon?

It's about 50 to 60 minutes via 680 south and 92 or 280, and we group it with Hillsborough on our Peninsula day. Morning appointments tend to be the most reliable, and once booked you get a written arrival time.

Can you work without disrupting the household or the property much?

Yes. Most Kenmore repairs stay contained to the fridge itself, I use floor protection and keep tools on mats, and water shutoff isn't needed for most jobs. If anything about the repair will be loud or disruptive, I'll say so before starting.

Does it make sense to fix an old Kenmore when the rest of the property is high end?

Usually yes. A pantry or guest house fridge doesn't need to match the main kitchen, it just needs to hold temperature reliably. If it's Whirlpool built underneath and the fault is a timer, fan, or gasket, repairing it beats hauling in a replacement for a unit that's doing backup duty.

Kenmore in Woodside

Kenmore in Woodside kitchens.

Woodside is almost entirely residential, just the small village center around Buck's and then acreage in every direction, so a Kenmore fridge here is usually a second or third unit tucked into a pantry, a guest house kitchen, or a garage on one of the horse properties off Kings Mountain Road. Kenmore was Sears retail branding over LG, Whirlpool, and Frigidaire hardware, and with Sears gone, the model number stamped inside the door is the only honest way to know what you're actually working on.

These properties run long private driveways with gate codes, so scheduling a visit means getting the exact address, which building the unit sits in, and gate or parking instructions ahead of time. Once I'm in front of the fridge the process doesn't change: decode the model, verify the fault, and hand you a written quote before touching a part.

We drive over from San Ramon, work seven days, charge $99 for the diagnostic credited toward the repair, and warranty the repair for 90 days, inverter boards for one year, with full sealed-system rebuilds at two years.

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.

Aging pantry units with failing defrost timers. A second fridge that's held on through a few remodels is often a 1990s Whirlpool or Frigidaire build underneath with a mechanical defrost timer. When the timer sticks, the freezer frosts solid or the whole unit stops cooling partway through a cycle. Timers are still available and the fix is a modest one for a unit mostly holding drinks and holiday overflow.
Compressor and inverter faults on Elite French doors. A kitchen remodel in the last ten to fifteen years often brought in a Kenmore Elite French door, LG built with their linear compressor. A unit that runs warm with fans still spinning needs gauges before any verdict, because an inverter board failure can look exactly like a dying compressor at a fraction of the repair cost.
Icemaker water lines splitting behind the unit. Old copper or plastic supply lines behind a fridge that hasn't been pulled out in years harden over time and eventually split, and on an estate with hardwood floors or a finished ceiling below, that's an expensive way to find out. If the ice tastes off or the floor feels damp, I check the whole line, replace it with braided stainless, and pressure test the connection before leaving.
