Why Choose Good Guys?

Why North Shore Homeowners Trust Good Guys for Sub-Zero Repair

A Sub-Zero is a major kitchen investment, and owners expect the repair service to match. Across Lake County and Cook County, Good Guys has built its reputation on getting the diagnosis right the first time, showing up when we say we will, and giving you an honest assessment.

Our technicians are licensed, insured and background checked. Sub-Zero units use dual refrigeration systems, air purification, microprocessor temperature control and vacuum-sealed doors, so we keep up with every series and generation. We also carry the parts most often needed to finish the job on the first visit.

Sub-Zero Repair for North Shore Homes

Many of Deerfield's ranch homes and split-levels from the 1970s and 80s are running appliances well past their expected lifespan, and premium refrigeration needs a technician who knows the product.

The North Shore and Northwest Suburbs have one of the highest concentrations of Sub-Zero installations in the Midwest, from refrigeration walls to custom panel columns and built-in wine storage. We've serviced premium refrigeration in this market for years and know what these units tend to need.

We cover lakefront homes in Lake Forest and Winnetka, custom builds in Northbrook and Barrington, and condos in Highland Park. There's no national dispatch and no subcontractors. When you call, you reach a local technician who specializes in Sub-Zero.

Sub-Zero Repairs by Product

Sub-Zero Built-In Refrigerator & Freezer Repair

Sub-Zero's full-size built-in refrigerators come in French door, side-by-side, over-and-under and all-refrigerator styles across the Classic, Designer and Professional Series. Each uses dual refrigeration, with separate cooling systems for the refrigerator and freezer. The microprocessor holds temperature within one degree of setpoint, the air purification system removes ethylene gas, bacteria, mold and viruses, and vacuum-sealed doors hold in cold air. Common problems we fix:

  • Not cooling, or cooling too much
  • Ice maker failures
  • Water dispenser problems
  • Compressor and condenser fan faults
  • Air purification system faults
  • Worn door seals
  • Split Climate system errors and control panel malfunctions

Sub-Zero Column Refrigerator & Freezer Repair

Column refrigerators and freezer columns let homeowners build custom refrigeration walls, pairing all-refrigerator and all-freezer columns side by side or placing them near different prep and entertaining areas. Designer Series columns are panel-ready with hidden hinges for a flush look. Common problems we fix:

  • Column refrigerators not cooling
  • Freezer columns building frost or not reaching temperature
  • Ice maker failures in combination columns
  • Control panel errors
  • Compressor faults
  • Door alignment problems on panel-ready installs

Sub-Zero Wine Storage Repair

Sub-Zero wine storage protects wine from heat, humidity, vibration and light. Dual-zone models hold reds and whites at their own temperatures, within one degree of setpoint, behind UV-resistant glass with anti-vibration construction and wood shelving. If your collection is at risk, call us right away. Common problems we fix:

  • One or both zones not holding temperature
  • Compressor failures
  • Fan motor problems
  • Lighting problems
  • Worn door seals
  • Control panel errors
  • Vibration dampening faults

Sub-Zero Undercounter Refrigerator & Beverage Center Repair

Sub-Zero undercounter refrigerators, beverage centers and refrigerator/freezer combinations bring the same temperature control to islands, wet bars, butler's pantries, offices and bedrooms. They have nano-coated shelves that contain spills and on-door touch controls, and Designer Series models are panel-ready. Common problems we fix:

  • Not cooling to the set temperature
  • Max Ice mode failures
  • Door seal problems
  • Touch panel malfunctions
  • Compressor faults
  • Drainage problems

Sub-Zero Ice Maker Repair

Sub-Zero standalone ice makers produce clear ice quietly and install flush with cabinetry in stainless or panel-ready finishes, in kitchens, bars and entertaining spaces. Common problems we fix:

  • Not making ice
  • Small or cloudy ice
  • Water leaks
  • Drain pump failures
  • Water inlet valve problems
  • Control board errors
  • Running constantly without making ice

Sub-Zero Refrigerator & Freezer Drawer Repair

Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer drawers install under counters, in islands, or as part of a refrigeration wall. Freezer drawers keep bulk frozen food near prep areas, and refrigerator drawers keep produce and deli items within reach. Common problems we fix:

  • Drawers not reaching or holding temperature
  • Sticking or broken drawer slides
  • Seal failures letting in warm air
  • Control panel errors
  • Compressor or fan motor faults
