Reach-In Freezer repair for Elizabeth businesses
Elizabeth's restaurants and bars sit next to a major hospital and college campus with large institutional kitchens. We serve businesses near Elizabeth Avenue, 7th Street and Novant Health Presbyterian Medical Center, including ZIP codes 28204 in Mecklenburg County, NC.
If a repair is not worth the money, we tell you and quote the replacement — no Elizabeth customer is pushed into a new unit they don't need. Many of our Elizabeth customers are along Elizabeth Avenue and CPCC Central Campus, where busy kitchens run reach-in freezer equipment hard from open to close. When a part is not on the truck, we order it the same day from Charlotte-area suppliers and come back to 7th Street as soon as it arrives. Summer heat in the Charlotte region pushes condensers and compressors to their limit; for Elizabeth kitchens we check airflow, coil condition and electrical parts on every visit.

Frequently asked questions
Why does my commercial freezer keep frosting up?
Usually a defrost failure or a door gasket that no longer seals. Both are routine repairs.
Should I unplug the freezer to defrost it?
Only as a temporary fix. If it ices up again in a few days, a defrost part has failed and needs to be replaced.
