MAINTENANCE GUIDE

Signs Your Appliance Needs Maintenance

Book a maintenance visit and a licensed technician comes to your home, opens the appliance up, and cleans, adjusts, and tests it before anything breaks. Visits start from $195. The diagnostic is credited toward the total once you approve the work, so it is never a separate charge. That covers the inspection, the cleaning, the small adjustments, and a written list of what we found.

The work targets the parts that wear out quietly. We clean the coils, filters, and lint traps, check the wiring and connections, and test the thermostats and controls. We inspect the hoses and door seals, lubricate what moves, and confirm the machine runs to spec. Anything heading toward a repair goes on the report we hand you before we leave.

A home refrigerator or a restaurant walk-in gets the same hands and the same standard. Every visit carries our 180-day warranty on the work we do, so if something we serviced acts up, we come back.

Most common

Appliances Breaking Down Unexpectedly

A worn part caught at a checkup is a cheap fix; the same part caught after it quits is not.

Higher Energy Bills

Dirty coils and worn components make appliances work harder and use more electricity.

Shortened Appliance Lifespan

Grime on the coils and a worn door seal make a machine run hot, and one that runs hot wears out years early.

Food Safety Concerns

A fridge that drifts above 40°F puts the food inside at risk before you notice the temperature slipped.

Warranty Fine Print

Manufacturer warranties exclude failures from neglect, so a dirty coil or a clogged filter can cost you the claim.

Commercial Equipment Downtime

A walk-in that quits mid-service costs a restaurant a night of covers and a cooler of spoiled stock.

Fire and Safety Hazards

Lint packed in a dryer vent and a gas fitting that has worked loose are what we find most, and both are a checkup away from safe.

Poor Performance

A dishwasher leaving grit or an oven running 25°F off is a part drifting, and a visit catches it before the part fails.

Why It Matters

Why Regular Maintenance Matters

A machine that gets serviced once a year lasts longer, runs cheaper, and quits on you far less often than one left alone until it fails. Clean coils and a tight seal mean the compressor works less to hold temperature, so the appliance draws less power and buys itself more years. For a restaurant or laundromat, one part caught early is a scheduled visit instead of a walk-in full of spoiled stock in the middle of dinner service.

FAQ

Quick Answers

FixitBay LLC keeps major kitchen and laundry appliances running across San Francisco, the Peninsula and Marin. A maintenance visit starts from $195 and covers cleaning, calibration, seal and connection checks, and a full working test on the appliances you book. We are a licensed California appliance technician (BHGS #51001). The $80 diagnostic ($100 commercial) is credited toward the total, and any part we replace carries a 180-day warranty on parts and labor. Book same-day or next-day; the calendar shows the earliest open window.

A maintenance visit starts from $195. We set the exact price at the visit, not before, and you approve a written estimate first. The diagnostic pays for the full inspection: $80 for a home appliance, $100 for commercial equipment. Once you approve the estimate, that diagnostic comes off the total. Every visit carries our 180-day warranty on parts and labor.

Most home appliances do well on a yearly visit. Commercial equipment in restaurants, hotels, and laundromats earns a visit every 6 months, since it runs all day. High-value units like a Sub-Zero refrigerator or a walk-in cooler are worth a look every quarter.

A visit goes after the parts that fail quietly. We clean the coils and filters, check the electrical connections, and test the thermostats and controls. We inspect the hoses and seals, lubricate what moves, and confirm the machine runs to spec. Anything heading toward a repair goes on the written report we hand you.

Yes. We maintain every residential appliance (refrigerators, washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, cooktops) and the commercial side too (walk-in coolers, commercial washers and dryers, restaurant ovens, dish machines). The same licensed technicians work both.

Yes. Every maintenance visit carries our 180-day warranty. If something we serviced or adjusted acts up inside those 180 days, we come back and fix it at no charge.

Most maintenance visits take 45 to 60 minutes. The technician inspects the appliance, cleans the parts that collect dust, lint or scale, makes the small adjustments, and runs it to check the result. Commercial equipment, a walk-in cooler or a dish machine, can run longer because there is more to open up. If the visit turns up a part worth replacing, that goes on a written estimate before anything else happens, and a job that needs an ordered part is scheduled as a return visit once the part is in. Book online and the calendar shows the earliest open window.

Sometimes, and the technician tells you before doing anything. Anything worth replacing goes on a written estimate at the visit, with the price and, if a part has to be ordered, the lead time, and you approve it first. Common parts arrive in 2 to 4 business days and specialty components take longer, so a repair that needs one is scheduled as a return visit, and that visit carries no second diagnostic fee. Whatever we fit is covered by the 180-day warranty on parts and labor.

It can, so check first. FixitBay LLC is an independent, state-licensed appliance technician (BHGS #51001), not a manufacturer service center, and some manufacturer warranties limit coverage when an independent shop services the appliance while that warranty is still running. If your appliance is still inside its manufacturer warranty, read the terms or call the manufacturer before you book. Once that warranty has expired, our own 180-day warranty on parts and labor is what stands behind the work.

We accept all major credit and debit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), Apple Pay, Venmo, Zelle, online payment via secure invoice link, personal checks, and cash. Payment is collected after the repair is complete and you've approved the work. We don't require a deposit beyond the $80 diagnostic visit fee, which is fully credited toward your repair if you proceed. No processing fees, no hidden charges - the price you approve is the price you pay.
