Two-door reach-in units are the workhorse of most commercial kitchens. We repair all major brands — not cooling, compressor issues, door gasket failures, evaporator fan problems, and more. We treat every call as urgent because in a commercial kitchen, it is.
Single-door reach-in units are common in smaller kitchens, bars, and prep areas. We repair single-door commercial refrigerators from all major brands — temperature loss, door seal failures, defrost issues, and more.
Three-door units hold large volumes of product and are common in high-volume kitchens and grocery operations. We repair three-door reach-in refrigerators — cooling issues, fan motor failures, control board problems, and more.
Glass door display refrigerators are common in convenience stores, delis, and grab-and-go operations. We repair glass door merchandisers — cooling issues, door fogging, lighting failures, compressor problems, and more.
Undercounter reach-in units are used in bar stations, prep lines, and service areas. They work hard in tight spaces. We repair undercounter commercial refrigerators from all major brands — temperature issues, compressor failures, and door seal problems.
Refrigerated prep tables keep ingredients cold at the point of use. When they fail, your prep line stops. We repair refrigerated prep tables from all major commercial brands — cooling issues, evaporator problems, lid and door seal failures.
Back bar coolers, kegerators, wine coolers, and glass door beverage merchandisers take constant use in bar and restaurant environments. We repair bar and beverage cooling equipment from all major commercial brands across Atlanta metro.
In a commercial kitchen, catching refrigeration problems early can mean the difference between a simple repair and a full unit replacement — and between passing and failing a health inspection. Here are some signs it is time to call us:
Do not wait until product is at risk or a health inspector flags the unit. Call us and we will get someone out fast.
The most urgent commercial refrigeration call we get. If the unit is running but not holding temperature, the most common causes are dirty condenser coils restricting airflow, a failing evaporator fan motor, a defrost system failure, or a refrigerant issue. Our EPA 608 certified technicians handle sealed system diagnostics correctly and fix the actual cause.
A compressor that clicks and hums but will not start is usually a failed start relay — a component we carry on every truck. If the compressor itself has failed, we will give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your specific unit and operation.
Ice buildup on the evaporator coils almost always points to a defrost system failure — a bad defrost heater, defrost thermostat, or defrost timer. It can also be caused by a door gasket that is not sealing properly. We identify the exact component that has failed and fix it correctly.
Worn or damaged door gaskets are one of the most common commercial refrigerator issues we see. A bad gasket lets warm air into the unit, forces the compressor to work overtime, raises energy costs, and puts food safety at risk. We carry common gasket sizes on every truck.
The evaporator fan circulates cold air throughout the unit. When it fails, the unit may still run but temperature distribution becomes uneven and the unit struggles to maintain set temperature. Fan motor replacement is a straightforward repair we complete same visit in most cases.
Dirty condenser coils are the number one cause of premature compressor failure in commercial refrigerators. In a kitchen environment, grease and dust clog coils fast. We clean condenser coils on every service call and advise on a regular maintenance schedule to prevent future issues.
Inconsistent temperature in a commercial refrigerator is a food safety issue. Usually caused by a faulty thermostat, a failing temperature control board, a defrost system that is running too frequently, or a door that is not sealing properly. We test the full temperature control system and repair the specific cause.
A commercial refrigerator that never cycles off is working harder than it should and will wear out faster. Usually caused by dirty condenser coils, a failing door gasket, a bad thermostat, or a defrost system issue. We diagnose the root cause and fix it before it leads to a compressor failure.
Water pooling inside or underneath a commercial reach-in is usually a clogged defrost drain, a cracked drain pan, or a door seal issue causing excessive condensation. Left unattended it creates slip hazards and can damage flooring. We find the source and fix it fast.
Modern commercial refrigerators have electronic control boards that manage temperature, defrost cycles, and alarms. When these fail, the unit may behave erratically or shut down entirely. We diagnose control board issues accurately and replace only what is needed.

Commercial refrigerator repair costs vary depending on the issue and the parts needed. Most commercial refrigerator repairs in Atlanta range between $200 and $600.

You get a clear upfront quote before any work begins.
In most cases we can have a technician at your location same day or next day. We understand that commercial refrigeration issues are urgent and we prioritize these calls. Call us early in the day for the best chance of same-day service across Atlanta metro and surrounding areas.
Yes. We repair all major commercial refrigerator brands including True Refrigeration, Beverage-Air, Turbo Air, Traulsen, Delfield, Hoshizaki, Continental, Manitowoc, Victory, and more. If you do not see your brand listed, give us a call — we most likely service it.
We offer flexible scheduling for commercial clients including early morning appointments before your business opens. We understand that having a repair crew in your dining room or kitchen during peak hours is not practical. Call us and we will work around your operation schedule.
First, check that the unit is plugged in and the circuit breaker has not tripped. Move temperature-sensitive product to another cold storage unit if possible. Do not prop the door open as this accelerates temperature loss. Then call us right away — the sooner we diagnose it the better the outcome for your inventory.
In a commercial kitchen environment, condenser coils should be cleaned every 3 to 6 months depending on how much grease and dust are in the air. Dirty coils are the number one cause of premature compressor failure in commercial refrigerators. We clean coils on every service call and can set up a regular maintenance schedule for your equipment.
It depends on the age of the unit and the cost of the repair. As a general rule, if the repair costs less than 50 percent of the replacement cost and the unit is under 10 years old, repair usually makes more sense. We will always give you an honest assessment — including when replacement is the smarter financial decision.
Yes. Regular preventative maintenance — including condenser coil cleaning, door gasket inspection, evaporator coil checks, and refrigerant level verification — can significantly extend the life of your commercial refrigeration equipment and prevent costly emergency repairs. Ask us about setting up a maintenance schedule for your business.
