Commercial Repair • Boulder
When the Line Stops, the Whole Business Feels It
A reach-in that drifts warm before the lunch push, a dish machine that won't reach rinse temperature, or a coin-op dryer that tumbles cold in a busy apartment building can derail a day faster than almost anything else. We are PointLine Appliance Repair, a small, family-owned company with one office at 2600 S Rock Creek Pkwy in Superior, a short trip from Boulder along US-36. We work on the equipment that keeps kitchens, break rooms and laundry rooms running, and we treat every call as a business problem with real costs attached, not just a broken machine.
Every visit starts with a $85 diagnostic that is credited toward the repair, and you get a firm quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises on the invoice. We use genuine OEM parts, we are insured, and our work carries a 90-day parts and labor warranty, the same terms our residential customers get. Same-day service is often available, though we never promise it until we can see the schedule. Book online or call or text (720) 285-3573, and tell us what the equipment is doing.
Who We Work With
The Businesses We Keep Running
Our commercial work spans food service, workplaces, rental housing and the many small operations that depend on a few hard-working machines.
Restaurants, Cafes and Bars
Kitchens live and die by steady temperatures and clean wares, so we focus on the equipment that matters most during service: ranges, convection and deck ovens, griddles and charbroilers, reach-in and undercounter refrigeration, prep tables, walk-ins, ice machines and dish machines. Your technician tests before quoting and explains the fault in plain terms, so you can decide quickly whether to repair now or work around it until a slower hour.
Offices and Break Rooms
A dead break-room refrigerator or an ice machine that has quit is a small thing until a whole floor of staff notices. We repair the refrigerators, freezers, ice machines and dishwashers that keep a workplace comfortable, and we can schedule visits around your building's access rules and quiet hours when you let us know them.
Property Managers and Multifamily Buildings
Rental units run on residential appliances, and shared laundry rooms run on commercial washers and dryers, and we handle both. We offer a dedicated property management service for owners and managers who need repairs coordinated across units, with clear quotes you can approve before work starts and simple communication with tenants on access.
Other Businesses
Salons, gyms, studios, schools, churches and clinics all lean on a handful of machines, whether that is a commercial washer full of towels, a staff refrigerator, an ice machine or a small kitchen used for events. Tell us what you have and what it is doing, and we will tell you honestly whether it is equipment we repair.
What We Repair
Commercial Equipment on Our Bench
These are the machines we diagnose and repair, including refrigerant and sealed-system work and compressor replacement. We do not service fryers, kitchen exhaust hoods or fire-suppression systems, so please call a specialist for those.
Cooking Equipment: Ranges, Convection and Deck Ovens, Griddles, Charbroilers
- What fails
- Igniters and pilot assemblies wear out, thermostats drift, gas valves and safety controls fail, convection fan motors seize and door hinges and gaskets let heat escape.
- What we do
- We check gas supply and ignition, test thermostats and controls against actual cavity temperature, replace worn parts with OEM components and confirm even heat before we leave.
Reach-In and Undercounter Refrigeration, Prep Tables
- What fails
- Dirty condenser coils, failing evaporator and condenser fans, torn door gaskets, stuck defrost systems and faulty thermostats push cabinets above safe temperatures.
- What we do
- We measure box temperature, clean and inspect the condensing unit, test fans, controls and defrost components, and handle refrigerant and compressor work when the sealed system is the cause.
Walk-In Coolers and Freezers
- What fails
- Iced evaporator coils, failed defrost heaters or timers, worn door closers and gaskets, refrigerant leaks and tired compressors all show up as rising temperatures or a unit that never cycles off.
- What we do
- We inspect the box, door and refrigeration system, find and repair leaks, recharge to specification and replace compressors or controls when needed, then watch the unit pull down.
Ice Machines
- What fails
- Scale on the evaporator, clogged water filters, failing water inlet valves, bad harvest sensors and dirty condensers lead to thin cubes, slow production, leaks or no ice at all.
- What we do
- We trace the water and refrigeration paths, clean and descale following the manufacturer's procedure, replace failed valves, sensors or pumps and verify a full harvest cycle.
Dish Machines and Glasswashers, Including Booster Heaters
- What fails
- Booster heater elements fail, rinse temperatures fall short, wash and rinse arms clog, pumps and solenoids stick and chemical feed lines lose prime.
- What we do
- We test wash and final rinse temperatures at the machine, check gauges and chemical delivery, delime where scale is the problem and repair heaters, pumps and valves with genuine parts.
Commercial Washers and Dryers
- What fails
- Washers develop drain pump, door lock, bearing and control faults; dryers lose heat from failed igniters, gas valves or heating elements, or overheat when lint chokes the airflow.
- What we do
- We diagnose electrical and mechanical faults, replace worn parts, check dryer exhaust flow and run test loads so the machines are ready for the next tenant or the next pile of towels.
We don't service fryers, kitchen exhaust hoods or fire-suppression systems. For everything else, call (720) 285-3573 with the make and model.

Equipment Down?
The First Half Hour After a Breakdown
What you do right after a cooler warms up or a machine quits can save product and speed the repair. These general steps help either way.
- 1
Protect the Product
Put a probe thermometer in the warmest spot and write down the reading and the time. Move potentially hazardous food into a working cooler or onto ice, and keep the failing unit's doors shut as much as possible so the cold that is left stays inside.
- 2
Check Power and Water
Look for a tripped breaker, a loose plug, a switched-off disconnect or a GFCI that needs resetting. For ice and dish machines, confirm the water supply valve is open and the drain is clear, and for gas equipment make sure the supply valve has not been bumped closed.
- 3
Photograph the Data Plate
Find the manufacturer's data plate, usually inside the door, on the back or behind a kick panel, and take a clear photo. Snap any error code on the display and note any noises, smells, frost or water you notice.
- 4
Call With the Details
Call or text (720) 285-3573, or book online, and share the make, model and serial number along with what the equipment is doing. Those details let your technician arrive with a sharper plan and often the right parts in mind.
Health Inspection Ready
Temperatures and Checks an Inspector Will Look For
Colorado's retail food rules are based on the FDA Food Code, and several of its requirements depend directly on equipment working the way it should.
41°F
Cold Holding
Refrigerated food must be held at 41°F or below. A reach-in, prep table or walk-in that drifts above that line is both a food safety issue and a repair call, so we check actual product-zone temperature, not just the display.
135°F
Hot Holding
Hot food must be held at 135°F or above. When holding or cooking equipment cannot keep up, your technician tests the heating elements, burners and controls that keep it there.
180°F
Dish Machine Sanitizing
High-temperature machines need a final sanitizing rinse of at least 180°F at the manifold, or 165°F for stationary-rack single-temperature machines. Chemical sanitizing machines must hold the concentration listed on the sanitizer label, and every dish machine needs a data plate and working temperature gauges.
Ice Machine Cleanliness
Ice counts as food, and ice machines must be cleaned. We clean and descale following the manufacturer's procedure and repair the parts that keep ice production clean and steady.

Local Conditions That Shape Commercial Equipment
A few things about Boulder help explain where commercial equipment works hardest here.
Cooking and Refrigeration Above 5,000 Feet
The city sits at over 5,000 feet, and as a general rule water boils at a lower temperature at elevation and gas burners may need high-altitude setup according to the manufacturer's instructions. When a range or oven runs poorly, your technician checks the gas configuration along with the usual suspects. Thinner, drier air at altitude can also leave condenser coils working harder when they are dusty, which makes regular coil cleaning especially worthwhile.
Glacier and Creek Water in Ice and Dish Machines
The city's water comes from Arapahoe Glacier and Boulder Creek. Any water supply carries some minerals, and over time ice machines, booster heaters and dish machines can collect scale that slows production or blocks heat transfer. We follow each manufacturer's cleaning and descaling guidance and check filters, so the water side of the equipment stays as healthy as the refrigeration side.
Downtown Kitchens, Historic Buildings and Campus Rentals
Restaurants and bars around the Pearl Street Mall keep equipment busy, older buildings such as those in the Mapleton Hill historic district can mean tight spaces and older wiring, and the many rentals near CU Boulder on University Hill change hands regularly. We plan access, measure carefully and work neatly whether the job is a cramped back-of-house walk-in or a rental unit's refrigerator between tenants.
How It Works
From First Call to Equipment Back in Service
One call, a clear diagnosis and a firm number before we touch anything.
- 01
Tell Us What's Wrong
Book online or call or text (720) 285-3573 with the equipment type, the make and model if you have it and the symptoms. Same-day service is often available, and we will tell you honestly what the schedule allows.
- 02
Diagnosis on Site
Your technician tests the equipment to find the actual fault rather than guessing from the symptom. The $85 diagnostic is credited toward the repair if you go ahead.
- 03
A Firm Quote First
You get a firm price before any work begins, with a plain explanation of what failed and why. You decide whether to proceed, and nothing is replaced without your approval.
- 04
Repair, Test and Warranty
We install genuine OEM parts, then run the equipment until temperatures, heat or cycles check out. The work carries our 90-day parts and labor warranty.
Preventive Maintenance
Keeping Commercial Equipment Ahead of Trouble
Most refrigeration failures start quietly. Condenser coils clogged with grease and dust force compressors to run longer and hotter, so cleaning them on a regular schedule is one of the most effective habits a kitchen can build. Door gaskets deserve a look every week or so: a torn or flattened gasket lets warm air leak in, ices up evaporator coils and makes a walk-in or reach-in struggle to stay at temperature. Ice machines should be cleaned and sanitized on the schedule in the manufacturer's manual, and water filters changed when the manufacturer recommends, since scale and buildup slow production and affect what ends up in the glass.
Dish machines and booster heaters benefit from regular deliming, because scale on heating elements and in rinse arms is a common reason rinse temperatures fall short. Check the gauges daily and pay attention when a reading starts to slip, rather than waiting for a failed inspection. In laundry rooms, clean dryer lint screens after every load and have the exhaust ducts checked for buildup, since restricted airflow lengthens drying times and raises fire risk. If you want a preventive maintenance visit for your equipment, call (720) 285-3573 and we will tell you what it includes and what it costs before we schedule it.

“My LG washer stopped draining. Nick quickly diagnosed the problem and replaced the drain pump. The repair was completed the same day and everything is working great again. Professional service and fair pricing. Highly recommend!!!”
Victoria M.June 2026 · Google “Our technician was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, respectful and kind! Fixed our busted GE double wall ovens in a couple hours! Inspection, part, labor and 90 day warranty are included in the price we paid!”
Koya M.July 2026 · Google “Nick is professional, highly-skilled, and did a great job troubleshooting and fixing our refrigerator. Our Whirlpool refrigerator was dispensing water randomly. Nick figured out the root cause, ordered a part, and then fixed it the day the part arrived. With such a potentially deleterious issue, Nick took care of it quickly, and effectively. We are grateful. I will certainly call upon his expertise again.”

FAQ
What Boulder Business Owners Ask Us
Straight answers for Boulder restaurant owners, office and facility managers.
Which ZIP codes do you cover for commercial work?
We serve businesses in 80301, 80302, 80303, 80304 and 80305, along with 80310. That includes places such as Table Mesa, Gunbarrel, North Boulder and South Boulder, as well as the downtown core and University Hill.
Can you fix a walk-in that has lost refrigerant or has a failing compressor?
Yes, we handle refrigerant and sealed-system work, including compressor replacement. Your technician finds the leak or failed component first and gives you a firm quote before any refrigerant or parts go in.
Does the elevation change how our gas cooking equipment should be set up?
It can, since general appliance guidance calls for some gas equipment to be configured for high altitude. When a range, oven or griddle burns poorly, we check whether its setup matches the manufacturer's instructions for elevations like ours, which sit over 5,000 feet.
Will our ice machine need descaling even with glacier and creek water?
Most ice machines need periodic cleaning and descaling no matter where the water comes from. Any supply carries some minerals, so we follow the manufacturer's procedure and check the filter during the visit.
We manage rentals near campus; can you handle appliances between tenants?
Yes, and we offer a dedicated property management service for exactly that kind of work. We repair the residential refrigerators, ranges, dishwashers, washers and dryers in rental units, plus commercial machines in shared laundry rooms, and you approve each quote before work starts.
Do you also handle rental properties with home appliances?
Yes. Apartments and rental homes with residential appliances go through our property management service, which includes the Property Care Club membership for landlords and property managers. Commercial kitchen, refrigeration and laundry equipment is handled on this page, call by call.
