Walk-in creeping above 41°F, reach-in freezing your produce, or a prep table that won't hold line temp through service?Commercial refrigeration repair in Los Angeles.Walk-ins, reach-ins, prep tables, display and back-bar coolers for restaurants, cafes, bars and offices — priority routing when the kitchen is down.
On-site commercial refrigeration repair across Greater Los Angeles — from Beverly Hills kitchens to Valley homes. Commercial units fail differently from home refrigerators. They run longer duty cycles, sit in hot kitchens, pull air through condensers packed with grease, and are opened hundreds of times a shift. A temperature drift is usually airflow, defrost or a door gasket long before it is the compressor — and every hour it stays out of spec is inventory and a health-code exposure.

In Los Angeles, waiting weeks for dealer service isn't an option when your commercial refrigeration is down. A walk-in that holds 45°F instead of 38°F does not look broken. It quietly costs you product, fails your temperature log, and turns a $400 fan-motor job into a compressor claim if it runs that way for a month.
A kitchen down is money down. That is why commercial calls jump the queue.
What we check on your commercial refrigeration
Your pro tests these systems on site before quoting parts or labor.
Condenser & airflow
Grease-loaded condenser coils and dying fan motors are the single most common cause of a unit that runs constantly and still drifts warm.
Defrost & drainage
Iced evaporators, failed defrost heaters and blocked drain lines — the reason a walk-in freezer frosts over and a prep table pools water.
Doors, gaskets & seals
Torn gaskets, sagging hinges and door heaters. Cheap parts that cost you compressor hours every single shift.
Commercial refrigeration faults we route every week
Tap a fault to text us with that issue — we match you to a pro who knows commercial refrigeration.
Walk-in above 41°F
Holding warm but running. Almost always condenser airflow, defrost or a failed door gasket.
DefrostWalk-in freezer icing over
Evaporator packed with frost. Defrost heater, termination thermostat or a blocked drain.
Reach-inReach-in not holding temp
Cabinet warm during service, fine overnight. Door seals, hinges or an overloaded evaporator.
Prep tablePrep table warm on the rail
Base holds, pans on top go warm. Airflow across the well, not the compressor.
DisplayDisplay cooler sweating
Glass fogging, product warm. Door heaters, humidity and airflow balance.
Back barBack-bar cooler warm
Bottles not cold by service. Condenser choked in a tight under-counter cavity.
IceIce machine not producing
No harvest or thin cubes. Water valve, scale or bin control before anything else.
SealedCompressor running nonstop
Runs and never satisfies. Confirmed sealed-system work only after airflow and controls.
Popular commercial refrigeration models we see in Los Angeles
Walk-in cooler & freezer repair in Los Angeles
A walk-in is the most expensive box in the building and the one nobody looks at until the temperature log goes red. Most of what we fix on walk-ins is not the compressor — it is the condenser, the defrost circuit and the door.
- Walk-in cooler holding above 41°F, freezer above 0°F
- Evaporator icing over, defrost heater and termination faults
- Condenser coils loaded with kitchen grease, dead fan motors
- Door gaskets, sweep, hinges, closers and door heaters
Reach-in cooler & freezer repair
Reach-ins fail during service and recover overnight, which is why they get written off as fine in the morning. The fault is usually the door and the airflow around a shelf that has been packed too tight.
- Cabinet warm during service, correct when closed overnight
- Torn gaskets, sagging doors, failed self-closers
- Evaporator fan motors and blocked return air
- Two-door and three-door upright refrigerators and freezers
Prep table & sandwich unit repair
The base holds temperature, the pans on the rail do not. That is an airflow problem across the well, not a refrigeration failure — and it is the single most common prep-table call we take.
- Sandwich and pizza prep tables, rail pans warm
- Well airflow, evaporator fans and drain lines
- Lid seals, night covers and gasket replacement
- Salad bars and refrigerated make-lines
Display, merchandiser & back-bar cooler repair
Glass-door coolers live and die on humidity balance. Sweating glass, warm product and a compressor that never cuts out are usually door heaters and airflow, not gas.
- Glass-door display and merchandiser coolers
- Back-bar, bottle and under-counter beverage coolers
- Door heaters, anti-sweat circuits and fogging glass
- Kegerator and keg cooler repair, draft beer cooling
- Undercounter and under-counter bottle coolers for cafes and bars
Commercial ice machine repair
Ice machines are a water problem wearing a refrigeration costume. Scale, a tired water valve and a bin control that never resets account for most no-ice calls before anything sealed is opened.
- Cubers and flakers, no production or thin hollow cubes
- Scale, water filtration and descaling service
- Harvest cycle, water valve and bin level control
- Under-counter and modular head units with storage bins
Office & break-room refrigeration
Offices are not restaurants and do not need to be treated like them. A break-room fridge, a shared beverage cooler and a floor ice maker are a single scheduled visit, invoiced to the company, done outside working hours if that suits you better.
- Break-room and office refrigerators
- Shared beverage centers and under-counter units
- Floor and pantry ice makers
- Scheduled visits outside working hours, invoiced to the business

commercial refrigeration repair FAQ
How fast can you get to a restaurant with a unit down?
Same day in most cases. Commercial calls get priority routing over residential — a walk-in above 41°F is a health-code problem, not an inconvenience. We reply in 15 minutes, 8am-8pm, 7 days a week.
Do you invoice the business?
Yes. We invoice the business directly and can work with a property manager or facilities contact instead of the owner. Send the billing details when you book.
Can you service us outside opening hours?
Often yes. Tell us your service window when you call and we schedule around your covers rather than through them.
Do you serve all of Los Angeles?
Yes. We cover Greater Los Angeles including Beverly Hills, Beverly Grove, Beverlywood, West Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, Century City, Westwood, Brentwood, and more. Text your ZIP or neighborhood and we'll confirm same-day or next-day availability.
How fast can a technician reach LA?
Most Los Angeles requests get a 1-hour arrival window the same day or next morning. We reply within 15 minutes during 8am–8pm, 7 days a week.
Our walk-in is at 45°F but still running — is the compressor dead?
Rarely. A unit that runs and still drifts warm is usually a grease-loaded condenser, a dead condenser fan or a defrost fault. The compressor is the last thing checked, not the first.
Do you service walk-in coolers and freezers?
Yes — walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers, including condenser and evaporator work, defrost circuits, door gaskets, hinges and door heaters.
Which commercial equipment do you cover?
Walk-ins, reach-in refrigerators and freezers, sandwich and pizza prep tables, glass-door display and merchandiser coolers, back-bar and bottle coolers, under-counter units, commercial ice machines, kegerators, and break-room refrigerators.
