FAQ

Commercial Kitchen & Restaurant Equipment Questions

Common questions about commercial kitchen repair

We repair all commercial kitchen equipment including hot side (ovens, ranges, fryers, grills, griddles, broilers, steamers, warmers), cold side (walk-in coolers, freezers, reach-ins, prep tables, ice machines, display cases), ventilation (exhaust hoods, exhaust fans, makeup air), and specialty equipment such as dishwashers and commercial mixers.

Yes, we answer 24/7 and offer 2-hour emergency response: for emergency calls, we aim to have a technician on-site within 2 hours. Refrigeration and cooking equipment failures get priority dispatch because every hour of downtime costs you money. After-hours and emergency calls are billed at overtime rates. Response times can vary with location, weather and call volume.

Brands we commonly service include Hobart and Vulcan kitchen equipment; CaptiveAire hoods; True, Atosa, Turbo Air, Beverage-Air, Traulsen, Continental, Falcon, and Avantco refrigeration; and Manitowoc, Hoshizaki, Scotsman, and Ice-O-Matic ice machines. We carry common parts on our trucks.

Yes, we offer preventative maintenance programs designed for commercial kitchens, priced as a custom contract for your equipment. Cooking equipment should be professionally serviced at least annually, and high-use equipment like fryers and grills may benefit from semi-annual service. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected breakdowns and extends equipment life.

Yes, we service both gas and electric commercial cooking equipment, from burners, pilots, ignitors and gas valves to heating elements, thermostats and controls.

Common causes include a failed pilot light or ignitor, faulty thermostat, clogged gas line, or failed high-limit safety switch. We diagnose and repair all commercial fryer issues to get you back to cooking quickly.

Temperature issues can be caused by a faulty thermostat, failing heating element or burner, damaged door gasket, or calibration problems. We can diagnose the issue and restore proper heating.

Yes, uneven heating on griddles is often caused by damaged heating elements, warped cooking surfaces, or thermostat issues. We can diagnose and repair to restore even cooking across the surface.
