Same Day Appliance Repair Pasadena
(626) 376-4458We are a service-area business. We serve customers on-site across the area.
When an appliance fails in Pasadena, our techs at Same Day Appliance Repair trace it to a handful of patterns: Sub-Zero 650 evaporator fan failures (freezer fine but fridge warm), LG washer OE drain-pump errors, Thermador Star burner igniter switches sparking constantly, and dust-clogged condenser coils causing early compressor failure in the dry heat. We dispatch same-day across Old Town, Historic Highlands, Bungalow Heaven, and the San Rafael Hills. $89 residential diagnostic, waived with repair. BHGS #A49573, EPA 608 Universal certified (#1346255700410).
Our technicians drive through Pasadena every single day — down Orange Grove past the Tournament of Roses houses, through Old Town where the restaurants need their walk-ins running, up into the hills near Caltech where you find everything from 1920s Craftsman kitchens to fully renovated modern appliances. We know this city.
When you call Same Day Appliance Repair, you're not calling a dispatch center that'll send whoever is closest. You're calling our Pasadena team — the same technicians who've been fixing refrigerators on Garfield Ave, washers in South Pasadena, and commercial ovens on Colorado Blvd for years. We pick up the phone, we give you a straight answer, and if we can make it the same day — we will.
Our diagnostic fee is $89 — and that goes away the moment you say yes to the repair. We bring the written estimate to you before we touch anything. Transparent pricing. Every job leaves with a 90-day warranty on parts and labor.
Quick tip from our techs: If your refrigerator is running constantly and the back feels warm, pull it out and vacuum the condenser coils at the bottom. In Pasadena's dry heat, dust buildup is the #1 cause of early compressor failure we see. Five minutes every six months can save you a $300+ repair.
Dryer safety tip: A blocked dryer vent isn't just an appliance problem — it's a fire hazard. If your dryer takes two cycles to dry a normal load, the vent is likely restricted. We do dryer vent inspections and cleaning as part of every dryer repair call in Pasadena. Don't wait for a thermal fuse to blow to find out there's a problem.

For Old Town Restaurants & Businesses
Old Town Pasadena has one of the densest restaurant districts in the San Gabriel Valley. Our technicians know what it means when a walk-in cooler goes down during dinner prep or a commercial dishwasher quits mid-service. That's not a "schedule for next week" situation — that's a phone call we pick up and respond to today.
We repair commercial refrigerators, walk-in coolers and freezers, commercial ovens, dishwashers, and laundry units for Pasadena restaurants, cafés, hotels, and multi-unit properties. Same approach as our residential work: we diagnose it honestly, quote it upfront, and fix it right the first time.
What we handle: Walk-in cooler & freezer repair — same day for emergencies. Commercial refrigerator & ice machine repair. Restaurant oven, range & dishwasher service. Call us for commercial pricing.

Commercial diagnostic $120 · waived when you approve the repair
Outdoor Kitchens & Patio Equipment
Pasadena's outdoor equipment skews old and gas-fed rather than showroom-new. A grill plumbed into a line that was run for a very different appliance two owners ago, a patio heater that sat through a decade of San Gabriel summers, a fire pit on a deep craftsman porch off Oak Knoll or up in San Rafael. Heat is the constant: inland summers here run hot enough for long enough that an outdoor refrigerator fights its condenser all afternoon, and igniters and thermocouples age faster than the manuals assume. Our techs check the gas path and the ignition before touching anything else, and we say plainly when a twenty-year-old unit is worth the part and when it isn't.
Diagnostic $89 · waived with repair
We don't have a completed job on record in Pasadena yet, so these are recent ones from the nearest cities we serve — each marked with the city it was in.
Problem: A two-year-old undercounter ice maker had stopped making ice.
The technician found the ice maker transformer and the circulation pump both needed replacing. Diagnostic visit only; no repair was carried out.
Problem: The washer was leaking from the bottom.
The technician found the transmission had failed. Diagnostic visit only; no repair was carried out.
Problem: The pilot would not light, so the oven could not start.
The gas safety system had a fault and the thermocouple needed replacing. The thermocouple was replaced and the gas safety system repaired on a return visit, once the part arrived.
When you call (626) 376-4458, you're talking to our Pasadena team — not a national call center. We'll tell you honestly whether we can make it same day, and if we can't, we'll give you the next available slot that actually works.
Our technicians have seen every common failure pattern on every major brand. We don't replace parts hoping something works — we diagnose the actual problem first, explain it to you in plain language, and give you a real estimate.
We stock OEM parts for the most common failures on Samsung, LG, Whirlpool, GE, Bosch, Sub-Zero, Thermador and others. Most repairs are completed in one visit — no "we'll come back when the part arrives."
Every repair we do comes with a 90-day warranty. If something goes wrong with the same part or the same issue within 90 days, we come back and fix it — no charge. That's not a marketing line, that's how we've kept customers in Pasadena coming back to us.
Quoted word for word from the reviews customers left on Housecall Pro after the job.
“Mike was at my house within 4 hours of calling SAME DAY APPLIANCE. Viking fridge is now ice cold. A bit pricey but worth it.”
“Excellent service call . The Technician arrived right on time. Installed the Ice maker straight on.”
“Showed up the same day and on time, diagnosed the problem with the refrigerator quickly (blocked freon tube), replaced the section that was causing the issue, put new freon in the system, cleaned it all up, and everything is working beautifully. The whole affair took two and a half to three hours. Very pleasant experience. … Will use them again if I need repairs. I recommend this company. The manager explained everything clearly on the phone about the repair and cost, and was both professional and friendly.”
“very thorough and did a great job”
Honest estimates. Written before we start. Diagnostic fee waived with repair.
