(909) 698-8788Common problems we repair
Not freezing, product going soft
Low charge, a failed compressor, blocked airflow or an evaporator packed with ice.
Heavy frost or ice inside
Defrost heater, defrost timer or thermostat failure, or a door that is not sealing.
Compressor hot and cycling
Dirty condenser coil or failing start components; the overload trips and resets over and over.
Fan not running
Evaporator or condenser fan motor burned out. Without airflow the coil cannot do its job.
Door frozen shut or not sealing
Failed door frame heater, torn gasket, worn hinges.
Temperature alarm or display error
Controller or sensor faults on digital units. We read the error and test the sensor before replacing parts.
A freezer failure costs more than a cooler failure: everything inside is a loss once it thaws. Fix Time Appliance Repair repairs commercial freezers for restaurants, markets, liquor stores, ice cream shops and schools across the Santa Clarita Valley, the San Fernando Valley, Burbank and Glendale.
Commercial freezers fail in a few predictable ways. The evaporator coil ices over when the defrost heater or timer stops; the compressor overheats behind a dirty condenser; a door gasket tears and humid air fills the box with frost; a fan motor seizes. A freezer that is 'still running' but not freezing is almost always one of these, and none of them fix themselves.
For walk-in freezers, see our walk-in cooler and freezer page. This page covers self-contained reach-in, undercounter and chest units.

How a service call works
Call or send a request
Tell us the equipment, the symptom and the address. A photo of the data plate helps us bring the right part.
On-site diagnosis
The technician comes to your business Monday through Saturday and checks the whole system, not only the part that looks broken.
Price before the repair
You get the repair price after the diagnosis and approve it before any work starts.
Repair and test
Common parts are on the truck; special-order parts get a lead time. We confirm the unit holds temperature or runs a full cycle before we leave.

Other commercial equipment we repair
Denis is extremely knowledgeable and honest person. Charges are extremely reasonable and he is upfront about it. I am extremely happy with his service.
Denis replaced a broken part within my LG refrigerator. He was amazing!! He arrived and immediately knew what the problem was. He had me send him a photo and model # the night before. He did his homework before arriving. His charges very fair for amount of work and had the replacement part with him. Very knowledgeable, cleaned up afterwards. I called him on Friday night. He was at my house at 9:00 am on Saturday. I will definitely be using him from now on!!
Thought I would have a quiet President's Day. Had to call Fix Time to repair the dryer. Best decision I could have made. Denis was outstanding. Not only did he diagnose and repair the dryer in a short amount of time. He then went above and beyond and checked out the other appliances. Can't thank him enough as there was a water leak in the refrigerator. Nice catch Denis. You are now our go-to person for any problem in the future.
My repair technician, Denis Shevtsov, was first rate. He arrived on time and was very thorough in ascertaining the problem with my gas stovetop range. Denis ordered the necessary parts right away and came back to repair the stove as soon as the parts were delivered. Denis was extremely polite and professional in explaining what he did and making sure the cooktop was working well once he finished the repair. Very grateful for the excellent service!
Excellent skill and service! Denis is reliable and honest. He took apart our 25 year old washing machine, found the problem, repaired it, and reassembled the machine quickly and skillfully! He made it look easy. I'd say he's a Master technician. We have had him out for three separate service calls and will always call him for repairs. His pricing is very fair. He returns texts / calls asap. He gets the job done right the first time!
This company is great. Efficient, reliable, highly recommend. Denis was very knowledgeable.
