Catering Equipment Servicing and Maintenance

Keeping Commercial Kitchens Running Across Newcastle, the Hunter and the Central Coast

When a combi oven cuts out halfway through service, or a cool room starts creeping above temperature with a weekend’s stock inside, you can’t afford to wait days for someone to turn up. We service, maintain and repair commercial catering equipment across the Hunter, and we’ve been looking after local kitchens since 1939.

The servicing side of our business stepped up a gear when Hunter Catering Maintenance joined Coles. HCM has spent around 30 years working on electrical and gas catering gear and commercial refrigeration right across the region. Between the two teams, there’s not much in a commercial kitchen we haven’t pulled apart and put back together.

Our Experience

Coles has been at this since 1939, and Hunter Catering Maintenance brought around 30 years on the servicing side. No job’s too big or too fiddly, and our emergency care runs 24/7, so you can reach us whatever the time or day. Here’s what we do.

Electrical Services

Our electricians know commercial kitchen gear inside out, from ovens and dishwashers through to the small appliances that quietly keep a kitchen moving. If it runs on power and it's stopped doing its job, we'll get it sorted, and we can calibrate temperatures so your equipment reads true.

Refrigeration Repair

Commercial refrigeration gets complicated fast. Cool rooms, freezer rooms, display cabinets and under-bench fridges all have their quirks, and it's been our core trade since 1939. When one goes down with stock inside, it can't wait until tomorrow, so our emergency response runs around the clock to keep your food cold and safe.

Gas Systems

Most commercial kitchens run on gas. Ranges, chargrills, large gas ovens and fryers all need to work hard and work safely. We service and repair the lot, with the training and the tools to handle gas properly and get it right the first time.

Preventative Maintenance

Your equipment is no different from a work vehicle. Regular servicing keeps it running efficiently, extends its life, and catches the small stuff before it turns into a big bill mid-service. We'll set up a maintenance schedule that suits your kitchen and keeps your gear ready when you need it.

Workshop Repair Service

Minor repairs get sorted on-site, but bigger jobs come back to our workshop, where we've got the room and the tools to do it properly. We carry common spare parts so a lot of repairs are done on the first go, and if we haven't got the part you need, we'll track it down.

Compliance and Safety Testing

In a commercial kitchen the paperwork matters as much as the work. We handle electrical test-and-tag and gas compliance checks so your equipment stays safe to run and ready for inspection. Get it checked on a schedule and you're covered when the auditor turns up, and you catch faults before they turn into a hazard.

The Equipment We Work On

We service all brands, electrical, gas and refrigeration. If it’s in your kitchen and it’s playing up, ask us. Chances are we’ve fixed one before. The gear we regularly service and repair includes:

We’re also Authorised Service Agents for Comcater, Moffat, Stoddart, Middleby and Goldstein Eswood. That means warranty and factory-backed work on those brands is done the way the manufacturer wants it done, not bodged to get you through the week.
