If this is you right now
A walk-in down is a food-safety clock, not a next-day ticket
Box climbing past 41 °F
The FDA Food Code, adopted in Oklahoma, requires cold holding at 41 °F or below. A loaded walk-in holds roughly 2–4 hours with the door shut before the clock starts.
Four-hour discard rule
Product above 41 °F for more than four cumulative hours generally must be discarded. An after-hours call almost always costs less than the spoilage it prevents.
Compressor humming and tripping
Repeated start attempts against a fault turn a $40 capacitor into a dead compressor. Shut it off at the disconnect and call.
Coil iced into a block
A frozen coil is a defrost, fan, or door fault — not low refrigerant. Adding gas makes it worse. It needs the real cause found.

See reach-in cooler repair details
Commercial Refrigerator Repair
Glass-door merchandisers, back-bar coolers, deli and floral cases, kitchen uprights. Diagnosed on the first visit across the whole sealed system and controls.
See commercial refrigerator repair details
Commercial Ice Machine Repair
Low output, long harvest cycles, thin or cloudy cubes, or no ice at all. Oklahoma City's hard water scales these machines fast; we descale, repair, and set a filtration plan.

Refrigeration Compressor Replacement
The highest-ticket refrigeration repair. Proper diagnosis before condemning the compressor, correct changeout with acid check, new drier, deep vacuum, and charge by weight.
See compressor replacement details
Refrigerant Leak Detection & Repair
Low charge means a leak. We find it with an electronic detector and nitrogen, repair it, evacuate properly, and charge by weight, per EPA Section 608, not a top-off that fails.
See refrigerant leak repair details
Refrigerated Display Case Repair
Open multideck merchandisers, deli and bakery service cases, floral and produce cases. Airflow, defrost, anti-sweat, and rack-feed problems diagnosed to health-code temperature.
See refrigerated display case repair details
Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Installation
New walk-in builds, box replacements, and condensing-unit changeouts. Load-sized equipment, code-compliant electrical and drainage, permit and inspection support.
See walk-in cooler installation details
Commercial Refrigeration Preventive Maintenance
Scheduled visits that catch the failures before they spoil product: coil cleaning, defrost and gasket service, charge checks, and documented temperatures. Priority response for plan holders.

Why Oklahoma City operators call us
A live person answers, 24/7
Not a voicemail box, not an overseas call center. Someone who can triage the fault and dispatch an Oklahoma City technician, day or night, weekends and holidays.
Price before the wrench
A flat diagnostic fee is quoted on the phone and applied to the repair. Nothing is fixed without a written price you approve first.
Diagnosis before parts
Pressures, superheat, and a meter first. We rule out a $40 capacitor before quoting a $3,000 compressor, and we find the leak instead of topping it off.
Documentation you can use
Every visit leaves an itemized invoice and a temperature log built for a health inspection or an equipment-breakdown and spoilage insurance claim.

Straight talk
DIY or handyman vs. cheap operator vs. proper repair
Commercial refrigeration is a sealed pressure system on food-safety-critical duty, and the shortcuts show up as a second failure. Here is what actually separates the three.
| Dimension | DIY / handyman | Cheap operator | Proper repair |
|---|---|---|---|
| Refrigerant work | Not legal without EPA 608; venting is a violation. Top-offs mask the leak. | May add gas without finding the leak. Charge by pressure, not weight. | EPA 608 recovery, electronic leak search, repair, deep vacuum, charge by weight. |
| Diagnosis | Guess-and-swap; parts-cannon. No pressure or superheat readings. | Fast look, condemns the compressor to sell the big job. | Full check of power, controls, condenser, evaporator, defrost, charge before any quote. |
| Food safety | No temperature documentation; product risk not assessed. | Restores cooling but leaves no records for the health inspector. | Box temperature logged on arrival and departure; written record for inspection and insurance. |
| Root cause | Chips the ice, resets the breaker — symptom gone for a day. | Replaces the failed part, not the reason it failed (dirty condenser, defrost fault). | Corrects the cause: airflow, defrost, leak, or control — so it does not come back next week. |
| Warranty & liability | Voids equipment warranty; you own the spoilage. | 30-day part warranty at best; hard to reach for the callback. | Written workmanship warranty; itemized invoice supports an equipment-breakdown claim. |
| True cost | Cheapest today, most expensive over the year and the product losses. | Low invoice, repeat visits, and a compressor changeout that could have been avoided. | Higher first invoice, fewer callbacks, longer equipment life, defensible records. |

Answers
Oklahoma City commercial refrigeration — common questions
Who do you serve in Oklahoma City?
Restaurants, bars, breweries, groceries, convenience stores, hotels, schools, healthcare kitchens, and food distributors across Oklahoma City and the greater OKC metro, including Edmond, Norman, Moore, and Midwest City.
How fast can a technician get to me?
Emergency refrigeration calls are dispatched 24 hours a day, with a technician typically rolling within a few hours and same-day scheduling for non-emergencies. A live person answers at (405) 725-9148 and quotes a flat diagnostic fee before anyone is dispatched.
What does a repair cost?
A standard-hours diagnostic plus a common repair runs about $247–$263, in line with 2026 Oklahoma City cost data. After-hours emergency diagnostics are $189–$450, quoted before dispatch. Most single-fault repairs finish between $350 and $1,200 for parts and labor; a compressor replacement is $900–$6,500 depending on the equipment.
Do you find refrigerant leaks or just add gas?
We find and repair the leak. Under EPA Section 608, a low charge on regulated equipment must be repaired, not topped off. We locate the leak with an electronic detector and nitrogen, repair it, pull a deep vacuum, and charge by weight.
Can you document a failure for an insurance claim?
Yes. Every visit leaves an itemized invoice, a written diagnosis, and a temperature log suitable for an equipment-breakdown or spoilage claim and for a health inspection.
Do you offer preventive maintenance?
Yes. Scheduled plans, typically quarterly, cover condenser cleaning, defrost and gasket service, refrigerant and temperature checks, and documented temperatures, plus priority dispatch and a reduced emergency diagnostic for plan holders.
