A restaurant in Gardens running with electrical fault is on borrowed time — every hour of delay costs product and money. We treat it as a critical callout and aim to reach Gardens within 60–120 min. The visit covers diagnosis, the repair itself and a check that temperatures are stable before we leave.

Prevention
Stop the fault returning
Schedule quarterly preventative maintenance on your freezer room to catch wear before it becomes electrical fault.
Keep condenser fins clean and airflow clear — the leading preventable cause of electrical fault in restaurants cold chains.
Monitor cabinet temperatures daily and log deviations so electrical fault is flagged before stock is lost.
Replace door seals at the first sign of perishing to stop the warm-air ingress that drives many electrical fault callouts.
