Traulsen in Lafayette
Traulsen refrigeration in Lafayette.
Most of Lafayette's commercial kitchens sit downtown along Mt. Diablo Boulevard and around La Fiesta Square: sit-down restaurants, a couple of bars, bakeries with display cases. It's not a high-volume corridor, but the operators here run tight rooms and notice the second a Traulsen reach-in or prep table drifts warm. We service it all and stock the truck so a fix doesn't turn into three return trips.
Traulsen is the cabinet we like getting a call about, built for a working kitchen and built so a tech can take it apart and fix it. The failures track the equipment: a thermostat drifted out of calibration, a reach-in gasket torn at the hinge so the door never really seals, a condenser packed with flour and grease, or a sealed-system leak on an older unit. We carry thermostats, fan motors, relays, and gaskets on the truck, so a good share of these get fixed on the first visit.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Thermostat drift. The reach-in or prep table warms up once the thermostat goes out of calibration or quits. We test it, recalibrate or replace, and confirm the box holds setpoint. Labor from about $250 plus the part.
- Gasket torn at the hinge. A gasket torn at the hinge means the door never really seals, warm air leaks past, and the compressor runs nonstop. It's among the cheapest fixes on the whole cabinet and it protects the compressor. We stock the common Traulsen profiles.
- Condenser caked with flour and grease. In a bakery or restaurant kitchen the condenser coil packs with flour and grease until the compressor runs hot and the box won't hold temp. We clean it down and check the charge. Most of the time that's the fix, not a part.

FAQ
Traulsen in Lafayette questions, answered.
-
Is my older Traulsen worth keeping?
Usually yes. These are built to be repaired, and the failures come from age and miles, not bad construction. We give you a straight written quote so you can compare the repair to a new cabinet. -
Do you do Traulsen refrigerant work?
Yes, in-house with recovery, evacuation, and weigh-in under EPA #1279674151528. Leaks tend to surface past 15 to 20 years. A full sealed-system rebuild can run up to $4,000 with a 2-year warranty. -
How fast can you get to Lafayette?
Downtown Lafayette is a quick run off Highway 24. We dispatch from San Ramon, 7 AM to 7 PM seven days, same number after hours, and the $75 diagnostic is waived with the repair.
