Franke in Piedmont
Franke coffee equipment in Piedmont.
Piedmont itself has almost no commercial coffee accounts, it's a small residential city with no real commercial strip, but Franke's A-Line units (A300 through A1000) still turn up here, mostly in serious home kitchens near the hillside streets, the neighborhoods climbing above Piedmont Park, where a homeowner wanted commercial-grade equipment instead of a countertop machine. It's a small enough exception that we count each one, home or otherwise.
The $150 deposit includes pickup, bench diagnosis, and return and is not credited toward repair. Extra bench time is $150 per hour. Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3–4 weeks. That is exactly why we recommend preventive maintenance: a maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.
When a Franke unit does need service in Piedmont, it's almost always in a home, so we bring the same diagnostic process we'd use on a commercial account: test it properly, quote it in writing, then fix it.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Heating, descaling, and error codes. Scale drops brew temperature and can throw a control-board error. We descale, test the heating circuit, and clear the fault.
- Brew unit rebuild. Seals and drive components wear until the brewer jams or throws a no-brew fault. We rebuild it and reset the cycle.
- FoamMaster milk system service. Dried milk clogs the fine lines and kills foam quality. We strip and clean the milk system and reset it.
Honest repair timing
A repair queue is easier to avoid than to rush.
We pick up the machine in Piedmont, diagnose it on the bench, and return it. Pickup and return are included, and you get the repair quote after diagnosis.
Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3–4 weeks. That is exactly why we recommend preventive maintenance. A maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.
