(909) 698-8788Common problems we repair
Not cold enough or temperature swinging
Dirty condenser, weak fan, low charge or a thermostat that reads wrong. Product at 45°F is a health inspection problem, not a comfort issue.
Compressor runs constantly or cycles on and off
An overheating compressor short-cycles on its overload. Very often the condenser coil has not been cleaned in a long time.
Frost or ice inside the cabinet
Failed defrost heater or timer, or a door that stays ajar and pulls humid air in.
Water pooling in the bottom or on the floor
Blocked drain, cracked drain pan or a failed evaporator pan heater.
Door will not close or seal
Torn gaskets, worn hinges and cartridges, bent doors on prep tables and merchandisers.
Buzzing, rattling or clicking
Fan blades hitting ice, a failed fan motor, or a compressor start relay clicking without the compressor starting.
The reach-in on a kitchen line and the glass-door merchandiser at the front of a store do the same job all day: hold product at a safe temperature while the door opens two hundred times. Fix Time Appliance Repair repairs commercial refrigerators at restaurants, cafes, markets and bars across the Santa Clarita Valley, the San Fernando Valley, Burbank and Glendale, Monday through Saturday.
Most commercial refrigerator failures come from heat and dirt: a condenser coil clogged with grease, a condenser fan that quit, a compressor that overheats and trips, or an evaporator that iced over because the defrost stopped. Door gaskets that no longer seal, hinges that sag and thermostats that drift do the rest. We check the whole refrigeration circuit and the door, not only the part that looks broken.
True, Turbo Air, Beverage-Air, Traulsen, Delfield, Continental, Atosa and the other brands on the line all use the same handful of components, so the parts for common repairs are usually on the truck.

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.
