Coffee & Espresso Machine Maintenance — We Pick It Up
Flat-rate servicing for home and commercial coffee equipment across Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego and Ventura counties. You do not box anything and you do not drive anywhere.
Maintenance is flat-rate. You pick the tier that matches your machine, that is the price we quote, and there is no diagnostic fee on top — we already know what the job is. Our courier collects the machine from your address and brings it back when it is done. Turnaround is 3–5 business days.

What will it cost?
Six questions, then your price. You see it before we ask for your name — no callback needed to find out what a service costs.
If you own something else — a bean-to-cup, a prosumer machine, a grinder — we do service those. See what a service costs.
Got it. Here's what we have.
We'll text you the diagnostic fee in writing before anything is scheduled. Reply YES and we'll book the courier.

When the price
goes up.
Flat rates cover a machine in normal working condition. Heavy scale, a seized brew group, milk-line biofilm, or prior disassembly by someone else require additional labor. We photograph what we find, send you the price, and wait for your approval before continuing.
What the numbers
on this page are.
These are flat rates, not estimates. The price you see is the price you pay for a machine in normal working condition. The only additions are the situations listed above, and we photograph what we found and get your approval before any of them is added. Nothing is charged without your written approval.
What we stand
behind.
90 days on labor and installed parts.
Not covered: water quality, missed cleaning, operating error.
Those three exclusions are not fine print, they are the three things that actually bring machines back. A descale we did in March does not survive nine months on 16-grain tap water, and a brew unit we cleaned and greased does not stay clean if the daily cleaning program never runs. If the water is the problem, we would rather fix that than service the same machine twice a year — that is a filtration conversation.
Machines we
don't service.
- Nespresso
- Keurig
- Smeg
- Drip makers under $150
Capsule machines are sealed units built to be replaced, not opened — the labor to service one costs more than the machine. A drip maker under $150 is the same math. We would be taking your money to hand back something worth less than the bill.
Running a bar
or an office?
This page is one-off flat-rate servicing. If you need recurring visits on a schedule, guaranteed dispatch windows and priority when something goes down mid-shift, that is a contract, and it lives on the preventive maintenance page. The commercial on-site tiers above are a single scheduled service, not an ongoing agreement.
If the machine is broken rather than due for service, start at repair instead — that path begins with a diagnostic, not a flat rate.
Representative job, not a specific customer. The numbers are our published rates. A Jura E8, roughly four years old, home use, two to three drinks a day, never serviced. Reported: coffee running cooler than it used to, milk foam thin, the brew unit sounding strained. A service on this machine is the Jura compact tier — $329 flat, pickup and return included. The brew unit comes out and is stripped, the o-ring and piston seal kit are replaced, the drain valve is rebuilt, the ceramic valve is cleaned and checked through every position, the thermoblock is descaled with two clear-water flush cycles, the milk circuit is stripped and resealed, the burrs are cleaned and the grind recalibrated, and the service counters are reset. About two hours on the bench; three to five business days from collection to return. What would move the price: if the inlet water tests hard for the neighbourhood, or the element carries visible scale, the descale runs long and that is quoted separately before the work continues.
Most "my Jura is dying" calls are a brew unit that has never been opened. Seals are a wear item at four years, not a failure. The trap is the filter cartridge: JURA states that descaling is not necessary if you use a CLEARYL filter, which is true and is also why we open machines whose owners neither descaled nor changed the cartridge for years. Run a filter and change it on schedule, or skip the filter and set the machine to your actual water hardness and service it more often — but do not do neither. And the arithmetic cuts both ways: $329 on a four-year-old E8 is worth spending. The same $329 on a nine-year-old machine with a worn brew-unit drive gear usually is not, and we will tell you so rather than take the booking.
