Do you actually service South San Francisco, since it's known more for biotech than housing?

Yes, we work the residential side, west of 101, Winston Manor, Sunshine Gardens, Serra Highlands, Buri Buri, and up into Westborough. We now have a technician based on the Peninsula in San Mateo, so South City is a short hop on our Peninsula day rather than a special trip.

My LG fridge is about six years old and the compressor hums but nothing gets cold. What's going on?

That matches the linear-compressor failure on French-door units built in that window. We check your serial against LG's compressor program before opening the panel, since the compressor part is often handled through LG directly even when the labor isn't.

What does a diagnostic visit cost?

$99, and it's credited toward the repair. We give you a written quote before any work starts, so you know the number going in.

Straight answer

LG dishwashers we do not take.

LG dishwashers are not a repair we take. Not any model, any year.

It is not a knock on the machines. It is the parts pricing. What a circulation pump, a control board, or a touch panel costs on one of these, set against what the dishwasher sold for new, turns the repair into a bad buy for you more often than not. We would rather tell you that here than charge you $99 to say it in your kitchen.

Everything else from these brands we still fix: refrigerators, ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, and dryers. We repair dishwashers from every other brand.

That answer does not change by town, so it holds in South San Francisco the same as anywhere else we run. Call us on the rest of the kitchen and we will be out.

Serviced: Fisher & Paykel, Miele, Cove, Asko. We also service every other residential and commercial brand.
Not serviced: LG, Samsung, Bosch, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, Jenn-Air dishwashers
Still serviced on those brands: refrigerators, ranges, ovens, cooktops, washers, dryers

LG in South San Francisco

LG in South San Francisco kitchens.

The hillside sign spells out 'The Industrial City,' but the LG calls we take in South San Francisco come from the houses, not the plants. Winston Manor, Sunshine Gardens, Serra Highlands, and the Westborough hill streets are full of 1940s to 1960s homes that have had a kitchen remodel or two, and LG turns up regularly next to GE and Samsung. East of 101, where Genentech and the rest of the biotech campuses sit, that's office parks and labs, not residential service calls.

In the older Winston Manor and Serra Highlands houses we still find a good number of French-door LG fridges from the 2014 to 2019 stretch, and that's the linear-compressor window: compressor keeps spinning, box stops cooling. We check the serial before we open anything. Up in Westborough where the remodels run newer, the fridge failures shift over to the evap-fan motor and the icemaker instead, both quick fixes. We provide a written repair estimate after the on-site diagnosis and before any work starts.

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.

Linear-compressor no-cool on Winston Manor and Serra Highlands French-doors. 2014 to 2019 units losing cooling while the compressor keeps running. We check the serial against LG's compressor program first.
Evap-fan motor and icemaker on newer Westborough fridges. Later LG refrigerators drop cooling or stop making ice when the fan or the icemaker module fails. Both are parts we keep on the truck.
Dual-inverter washer LE fault. Rotor-position sensor drift throws an LE code partway through a cycle. Sensor swap, tested before we leave.
