Who We Are
One call for everything that breaks, wears out or needs rebuilding
Restaurant Repairs Inc works out of 12751 SW 9 St in Miami, serving restaurants, bars, hotels, schools and food trucks across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach. We do the two things restaurant operators usually have to juggle between five different vendors: keep the equipment running, and rebuild the space when it is time.
On the service side we repair refrigeration, cooking equipment, warewashing and prep equipment, and we handle the facility problems that are not equipment at all: a failing door, a leaking sink base, damaged FRP wall panels, broken tile, a cracked floor. On the construction side we handle remodels, kitchen reconfigurations, bar builds, dining room refreshes and full build outs.
- Written diagnosis and estimate before any repair work
- Remodels drawn, permitted and built by one team
- Work scheduled around service so you stay open where possible
- Preventive maintenance plans that prevent the emergency call

What We Do
Repair, maintain, remodel
One company for the whole restaurant, so you are not calling a refrigeration tech, a handyman and a contractor in the same week.
Refrigeration Service
Walk ins, reach ins, prep tables, ice machines and display cases. Leak detection, compressor work and temperature troubleshooting.
Cooking Equipment
Ranges, ovens, fryers, griddles, char broilers, steamers and combi ovens. Gas, electric and controls work.
Remodels & Build Outs
Kitchen reconfigurations, bar builds, dining room refreshes and full build outs, drawn, permitted and built by our own crews.
Preventive Maintenance
Scheduled service plans that catch failures before service does. Cleaning, calibration, gasket checks and coil work.
Facility Repairs
The things that are not equipment: FRP panels, damaged tile, doors, hardware, shelving, sink bases, ceilings and general repairs.

How It Works
Four steps back to service
Call It In
Give us the equipment make, model and symptom, or tell us about the space you want rebuilt. We often narrow a repair before the truck rolls.
Service Window
We confirm a window that works around your service times, because nobody wants a technician on a hot line at 7 PM.
Diagnose & Quote
The technician diagnoses the actual fault and gives you a written estimate. Remodels get a measured walkthrough and a line item proposal.
Fix & Verify
We repair or build, run the equipment, verify temperatures and operation, and leave the area clean with the work documented.

Questions
What operators ask first
How fast can you get here?
Most calls placed during business hours are scheduled same day or next business day, depending on your location and technician availability. Maintenance plan customers get priority scheduling ahead of one time calls.
Do you charge just to come out?
There is a $145 diagnostic service call covering travel and the first hour on site. If you approve the repair, that amount is credited toward it, so you are not paying twice for the same hour.
Will you tell me if it is not worth repairing?
Yes, and we do it often. When the repair cost approaches replacement value on a unit near the end of its life, we will say so plainly and give you the numbers to make the call yourself.
Can you remodel while we stay open?
Often yes. We phase work around service periods, wall off active areas and schedule the disruptive stages overnight or during closures where the scope allows it. We will tell you honestly when a full closure is the faster and cheaper route.
Do you handle permits?
For remodel and build out work that requires them, yes. We prepare applications, coordinate the licensed trades and engineering required, and schedule inspections as part of the contract.
Is your work warrantied?
Yes. Repair labor carries a 90 day warranty, construction workmanship is warrantied for one year, and parts and materials carry their manufacturer warranties. See our warranty page.
Equipment down? Call before service.
Tell us the make, model and symptom and we will give you a service window and an honest read on what it is likely to take.
