We know the local businesses, the building types and how hot a Matthews kitchen gets in July. Sandwich, salad and pizza prep tables are some of the hardest-working refrigeration on the line. Pans on top have to stay at 41°F or below while the lid is open for hours. We repair sandwich/salad units, mega-top units and pizza prep tables.
Prep Table & Sandwich Unit repair for Matthews businesses
Matthews combines a walkable downtown restaurant row with heavy retail along US-74 and a busy medical corridor. We serve businesses near downtown Matthews on Trade Street, Independence Boulevard (US-74) and Sycamore Commons, including ZIP codes 28104, 28105 in Mecklenburg County, NC.
Many of our Matthews customers are along downtown Matthews on Trade Street and Matthews Township Parkway, where busy kitchens run prep table and sandwich unit equipment hard from open to close. Mecklenburg County health inspectors check cold-holding at 41°F or below and hot-holding at 135°F or above — we repair your prep table and sandwich unit to hold those numbers. We document every visit with the temperatures we measured and the parts we replaced, which helps Matthews managers with inspections and budgeting. If a repair is not worth the money, we tell you and quote the replacement — no Matthews customer is pushed into a new unit they don't need.

Frequently asked questions
Why are my prep table pans warm but the cabinet is cold?
The rail depends on airflow from the evaporator. A weak fan, iced coil or blocked duct starves the pans first.
Can a prep table hold food safely overnight in the rail?
Most manufacturers recommend moving pans to the cabinet or a walk-in overnight; rail units are designed for service hours.
