Commercial range with gas burners and a griddle

North Olmsted grew like crazy in the fifties and sixties. The town went from about 6,600 people to almost 35,000 in twenty years, and whole subdivisions like Bretton Ridge went up at once. Census data puts the median house at 1966.

From our base in Parma it's around 13 miles, about 23 minutes with the roads clear. Westlake sits to the north and North Ridgeville past the west line. Fairview Park and Brook Park are east of you. We cover all of 44070, from Great Northern out to Butternut Ridge.

Sixty-year-old subdivisions, today’s appliances

The original appliances in these houses are long gone. What's left from the sixties is the plumbing and the wiring, plus a floor plan built around smaller machines. That's where a lot of our diagnosis starts. A washer that floods the basement may be fine, and the sixty-year-old drain behind it may be the real story. We'll tell you which, even when the answer is a plumber instead of us.

Laundry next to the furnace

Lots of these houses keep the washer in the basement or a utility room by the furnace. Check the drain standpipe. If it backs up when the washer pumps out, that's a plumbing clog, not the washer.

Dryer vents through the rim joist

Basement dryers often vent out through the band joist with a long run. A crushed foil hose behind the dryer is the most common reason clothes take forever.

Kitchen remodeled, cabinets tight

When a kitchen gets updated, the fridge opening doesn't always grow with the new fridge. A unit packed in tight runs hot. Give it room at the top and back.

Electric to gas, or gas to electric

Some houses switched fuel during a remodel. If your range was converted, mention it. Burner trouble on a converted range sometimes comes down to the wrong orifices.

Restaurant kitchens along Lorain Road

Lorain Road through North Olmsted once made the Guinness book for how many restaurants it packed in. There are still a lot of kitchens on that stretch, plus the stores around Great Northern. If your walk-in starts creeping up during a busy shift, call before it hits 41 degrees and you're throwing out food.

We fix commercial gear too. Walk-in coolers and ice machines never seem to quit on a slow Tuesday morning. Convection ovens either. Our technicians stay out until 11 at night on weekdays and Sundays. A cooler that dies at dinner on Sunday doesn't have to wait for Monday morning.

The rule is the same as at home. You get the cause and the price first, and nothing gets replaced until you say so.

Calling us for a restaurant repair

Tell us the unit and the symptomSomething like a cooler sitting at 50 degrees, or an ice machine that went quiet. Brand and model from the data plate help us bring parts.
Say when we can get inEarly before opening works for most kitchens. Late after close is fine too.
Have someone who can approveThe manager or owner should be there or reachable. We give the diagnosis and the price, then wait for the go-ahead.

While you wait on a cooler repair, move the most expensive product to another unit and keep the door shut. Every opening lets cold out.

Home appliance quit today

You can reach us seven days a week. If the call comes before mid-morning on a weekday, an afternoon visit is often doable.

Basement filling with water

Turn off the washer and close both taps. If water's coming up the floor drain, that's a plumbing problem.

Freezer warming up

Keep it shut. A full freezer stays frozen for many hours with the door closed.

North Olmsted questions

Homeowners and restaurant managers ask these the most.

(216) 352-3935

Do you do appliance repair in North Olmsted, OH?

Yes, all of 44070. We're based in Parma, about 23 minutes away without traffic.

Do you repair restaurant equipment on Lorain Road?

Yes. We service restaurant refrigeration and cooking gear. A morning visit before you open is usually easiest.

My washer drain backs up into the standpipe. Is the washer broken?

Probably not. If water overflows the standpipe while the washer pumps out, the drain line is partly clogged. That's a plumber's job. If the standpipe is fine and the washer won't drain, call us.

How long should a dryer take in an older North Olmsted house?

A normal load should dry in about 40 to 60 minutes. If it takes two cycles, check the vent run first. Long runs through the basement wall clog fast.

Can you come in the evening for a commercial cooler?

Yes. Technicians work until 11 pm on weekdays and Sunday. Call and we'll tell you how soon someone can be there.

Is a 1960s house a problem for a new front-loader?

Not usually. Older basement floors are concrete and solid. Upstairs is different. A front-loader on a wood floor can shake, so level it carefully and keep the feet locked.

Can you handle my house and my restaurant on the same day?

Sometimes. Mention both jobs on the phone and we'll check whether the schedule stretches that far. Commercial breakdowns that stop service usually go first.

Our walk-in is holding at 45 degrees. Is that an emergency?

For food safety, yes. Cold-held food should stay at 41 degrees or below. Move the high-risk product to another cooler, keep the door shut and call us right away. Dirty condenser coils and a failing fan are common reasons a walk-in drifts up.
