How does scheduling work for Sunnyvale given you are based in San Ramon?

The drive is about 40 minutes, and Sunnyvale sits mid-loop between Mountain View, Cupertino, Los Altos, and San Jose on our South Bay routing. We run that corridor several days a week, so a slot within a day or two is the norm.

My apartment fridge is the landlord's. Who do you deal with?

Whoever pays. Standard Sunnyvale workflow is tenant books, we diagnose, the written quote goes to the landlord the same day, and we schedule the repair once they approve. The $75 diagnostic credits to the repair either way.

Is a Kenmore in an original Eichler kitchen harder to service?

Only slightly. Eichler fridge alcoves are shallow and the slab floors are actually kind to slide-outs. Mention the house style when booking and I plan the access accordingly.

Kenmore in Sunnyvale

Kenmore in Sunnyvale kitchens.

Sunnyvale mixes Eichler-era neighborhoods with a large stock of apartments and townhomes, and Kenmore units run through all of it. The fridge in a Fairbrae Eichler and the fridge in a Ponderosa Park apartment might wear the same badge, but Sears never built either one. LG built the 795 units, Whirlpool built the 106 units, and the model tag decides how the repair goes and what it costs.

A lot of Sunnyvale calls come from renters and from owners who inherited the appliance with the house. Neither needs paperwork. The tag inside the fresh food compartment gives me the build, the production year, and the known failure list for that platform.

We drive down from San Ramon, work 7 days, and start every job with a $75 diagnostic that credits toward the repair. Written quotes always, and two years of warranty on sealed system work.

Water and ice systems

The water inlet valve, a common fridge leak.

Every fridge with a dispenser or ice maker has a water inlet valve. The fittings can leak under the cabinet, or the solenoid fails and the dispenser and ice maker stop getting water.

Laundry

How to spot a bad washer drain pump.

LG and Samsung washer drain pumps side by side. When a washer will not drain or hums at the end of a cycle, this small pump is the usual suspect, and the two brands fail in different ways.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

Evaporator icing and fan noise on 795 French door units. The LG-built Elites develop defrost sensor faults that let ice grow around the evaporator fan, and the unit starts making a rhythmic scraping whir. Fixing the sensor without clearing the root cause invites it back, so I repair the defrost fault, replace the fan if the ice has scored it, and verify a clean cycle before leaving.
Full defrost system failures on 106 apartment units. The Whirlpool-built top-freezers standard in Sunnyvale apartments fail at the defrost system more than anywhere else. Frost walls off the evaporator and the fresh food side warms over days. Heater, thermostat, and control get tested together, and the repair typically returns years of service on these simple, durable machines.
Thermistor faults causing frozen produce. A Kenmore that freezes the crisper contents while the display reads a normal setting usually has a drifted thermistor feeding the control bad data. It is a small sensor and an inexpensive fix. I confirm with an independent thermometer over a full cycle before replacing it, so the repair addresses the actual fault.
