Deck oven won't heat or pilot won't stay lit
Thermocouples, pilot assemblies, safety valves, gas valves and thermostats on Bakers Pride, Blodgett and Marsal decks.
Minneapolis has pizzerias on nearly every corridor, from Northeast and Uptown to Dinkytown and the North Loop. When the deck won't heat or the conveyor belt stops, we get the oven running again, with after-hours and weekend emergency service.

If your equipment is down right now
If you smell gas, shut off the gas valve, ventilate and call the gas utility first.
Confirm the gas valve is open and the breaker is on. Conveyor ovens need power for the belt and blower.
Does the pilot light then go out, does the belt move, is the blower running? This tells the tech which parts to bring.
Call (651) 364-7466 and say your pizza oven is down in Minneapolis.
FAQs

Usually a failing thermocouple or safety valve, or a dirty pilot. It's typically a one-visit repair.
The commercial trip fee is $199 and is waived when you approve the repair. You get a written quote before any work and a 1-year parts-and-labor warranty.
Yes. We replace cracked deck stones and check burner and thermostat settings so the new stones heat evenly.

First visit is card-on-file or COD. Once an account is established, we invoice Net-15 or Net-30 with itemized statements aligned to your accounting cycle. We accept POs from restaurant groups, hotel brands, property management firms, school districts, and city and county accounts. ACH and card payments both fine.
Yes — quarterly, semi-annual, and annual PM plans tiered by equipment count and equipment class.

Every technician holds EPA Section 608 Universal certification covering R-404A, R-448A / R-449A (Solstice N40, Opteon XP40), R-290 hydrocarbon systems where code permits, and legacy R-22. Cooking-equipment techs are gas-certified for natural gas and LP on ranges, fryers, ovens, and combi-ovens.

Yes. Truck-mounted reach-ins, undercounter units, generator-fed ice machines, and mobile prep tables are all serviceable — we typically shop-visit at your commissary or overnight parking rather than roadside so the unit can stabilize before diagnosis.
Yes. Written estimates are issued before any sealed-system, compressor, or major-component work. On request we provide inspector-ready documentation: repair scope, part numbers, refrigerant type and charge, and the date service restored the unit to spec.
