Refrigeration Repair in San Mateo

Refrigeration Repair in San Mateo.

San Mateo's older homes in Baywood and around Hillsdale sit a few blocks from the restaurant rows on 25th Avenue and B Street, and the fridges we service here are almost always a garage unit or an older kitchen fridge that's been running since the last full remodel. Most of what we see is GE, Whirlpool, and Kenmore.

San Mateo is also where our Peninsula technician is actually based, so of every city we cover this is the one with no drive time at all. We still confirm the part fits before we order it, whether it's a defrost timer or an evaporator fan.

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.

Brazing a new line onto the compressor during the same kind of sealed-system repair. Recover, braze, evacuate, and recharge: the real fix, done as one complete job.

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.

  • Defrost timer failure. Ice builds on the coil, freezer warms gradually.
  • Evaporator fan motor failure. Compressor runs nonstop, box stays warm.
  • Door gasket hardened. Cold leaks at the seal, compressor runs long.
  • Icemaker assembly failure. Common on Samsung and LG French-door units. Confirmed on the bench before quoting.

    Our Peninsula technician lives here, so this is the one city we cover with zero drive time.
  • Is it worth fixing an old fridge or garage freezer?
