Real Repairs by Our Technicians
Commercial Reach-In Refrigerator Service Across Greater Houston
When your reach-in goes down in the middle of a Houston dinner rush, every hour costs you product and revenue. Max Appliance Service runs a dedicated commercial route across the Greater Houston area — Galveston to Conroe, Katy to Baytown — and most reach-in refrigerator calls get a technician on-site the same day.
We work on single-door, two-door and three-door reach-ins from True, Beverage-Air, Continental, Hoshizaki, Turbo Air, Delfield, Traulsen and the residential-grade Sub-Zero / Frigidaire / GE units that smaller kitchens often run. Compressors, condenser fans, evaporator coils, thermostats, door gaskets, defrost boards — we carry the common parts on the van and quote upfront before we touch anything.
Most repairs are finished in a single visit. If a controller or compressor needs to be ordered, we lock in the price, prioritize the parts run, and come back the moment it lands so you’re not staring at a warm box for three days.
Brands we work on: True · Beverage-Air · Continental · Hoshizaki · Turbo Air · Delfield · Traulsen · Migali · Sub-Zero · Viking · Frigidaire · GE · Whirlpool · Samsung · LG
Common Commercial Reach-In Refrigerator Problems We Fix
Recognize the symptom? Call us and we will tell you what is wrong before sending a truck.
Box not holding temperature
Cycling too often, food softening, condenser overworking — usually a dirty coil, failing fan motor or low refrigerant charge.
Ice or frost building up inside
Defrost timer, defrost heater or evaporator fan issue. Left alone it kills the compressor.
Door not sealing
Worn gaskets, sagging hinges or a bent door frame — easy fix that pays for itself in compressor life and energy.
Compressor short-cycling or loud
Hard-start kit, contactor, capacitor or relay failure. We test before we replace.
Water pooling on the floor
Clogged or misaligned drain line, cracked drain pan, frozen evaporator. We trace it back to the cause.
Display showing error code
We read the diagnostic, decode it for your specific model, and fix the root cause instead of just resetting.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you service walk-in refrigerators too?+
No. We focus on reach-in units. Walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers require certifications we do not currently hold. If you have a walk-in, we will refer you to a vetted partner.
How fast can you come out?+
For commercial reach-in refrigerator calls in the Houston metro area we target same-day service for calls received before 2pm, and first-thing-next-morning otherwise.
What does a commercial diagnostic cost?+
Diagnostic is a flat fee that we apply toward the repair if you approve the quote. The technician gives you the full repair price upfront before any work begins.
Do you carry parts on the truck?+
Yes. Common gaskets, fan motors, capacitors, relays, defrost components and thermostats are on the van. Brand-specific controllers or compressors may need to be ordered.
Is there a warranty?+
Yes. Parts and labor are warrantied. The exact terms are written on your invoice and depend on the part.
