Walk-In Cooler & Freezer Repair in Houston

When a walk-in cooler or freezer goes down, the clock starts on everything inside it. Wine Refrigeration repairs walk-in coolers and walk-in freezers for restaurants, bars, wine shops, groceries and other businesses across Houston — with the same refrigeration expertise we bring to high-end wine cellars every day.

Walk-In Problems We Repair

Not holding temperature — refrigerant leaks, failing compressors, condenser problems
Ice and frost build-up — defrost timers, heaters, evaporator issues
Water on the floor — blocked drain lines, defrost malfunctions
Compressor short-cycling or running non-stop — controls, charge level, airflow
Door and gasket failures — worn seals, hinges, heater wires that waste energy and stress the system
Thermostat and control faults — sensors, controllers, alarms

We also perform preventive maintenance on walk-ins — coil cleaning, charge checks, gasket inspection — the same discipline that keeps our clients’ wine cellars alive through Texas summers.

A walk-in failure is an inventory emergency, so we prioritize rapid diagnosis and clear communication: what failed, what it costs, how fast it can run again. For recurring clients we set up scheduled maintenance that catches most failures before they happen.

Frequently Asked Questions

My walk-in cooler is running but not cold. What is wrong?

Most often low refrigerant from a leak, a dirty or blocked condenser, or a failing compressor. Iced-over evaporator coils from a defrost fault produce the same symptom. A technician can isolate the cause quickly with gauges and a visual inspection.

Why is there ice building up in my walk-in freezer?

Usually a defrost problem — failed timer, heater or termination thermostat — or warm humid air leaking in through worn door gaskets. Ice build-up reduces cooling and eventually stops airflow entirely, so it is worth fixing early.

Do you service both coolers and freezers?

Yes — walk-in coolers, walk-in freezers and combination boxes, including remote and self-contained condensing units.

Do you offer maintenance contracts for restaurants?

Yes. Scheduled coil cleaning, charge and control checks dramatically reduce emergency failures. Contact us to set up a schedule that fits your kitchen.
