Restaurant Refrigeration Repair NYC

For established restaurant accounts we target under 3 hours during business hours and under 6 hours overnight or on weekends. For a first call we quote a same-day emergency visit when the schedule allows. Every hour counts when product is at risk — we call ahead so you know when the technician is on the way.

Walk-in coolers and freezers, reach-in refrigerators and freezers (True, Traulsen, Beverage-Air, Continental), prep tables and sandwich units, glass door merchandisers, ice machines (Manitowoc, Scotsman, Hoshizaki) and small blast chillers. We do not service supermarket rack systems or industrial cold storage.

A refrigeration diagnostic runs $250 to $400 depending on equipment and off-hours timing. Common repairs — condenser fan motors, evaporator fan motors, defrost boards, door gaskets, thermostats, TXV valves — land between $350 and $1,400. Compressor replacement is quoted individually and is often close to the cost of a used replacement unit, so we always price both side by side.

Yes. Quarterly PM contracts cover condenser coil cleaning, evaporator inspection, door gasket check, temperature log verification, defrost function test and refrigerant charge check. Contracts include a discounted diagnostic rate on emergency calls and priority scheduling during heat waves.

Yes. If a DOH inspector cites a walk-in holding above 41°F, a broken door gasket or a leaking condensate line, we schedule the same-day visit and document the repair with photos and temperature readings you can attach to your re-inspection paperwork.

Cloudy or slow ice is usually scale on the evaporator plate, a failing water pump or a clogged inlet filter. We de-scale and sanitise ice machines to manufacturer spec, replace worn pumps and inlet valves, and set regular sanitation intervals in the PM contract so the problem does not return.
