Refrigerator Repair Below Cowles Mountain
San Carlos is a San Diego neighborhood in the Navajo community, at the foot of Cowles Mountain, the highest point in the city of San Diego. It borders Lake Murray and Mission Trails Regional Park, and it shares a border with La Mesa, so we can reach most San Carlos homes in about 10 minutes.
Most San Carlos homes were built in the 1960s and 1970s. Many have been remodeled, often with new counter-depth or French door fridges squeezed into kitchen openings that were built for smaller units. Tight openings can trap heat and shorten a fridge’s life.
San Carlos is also a neighborhood of long-time owners and retirees, many of whom keep a reliable older fridge running for years. We are happy to repair those, and we give honest advice when a part is not worth replacing.
From Navajo Road to Lake Murray Boulevard, we cover every street in San Carlos.
