35+ AreasWhat Durbanville Clients Say About Our Cold Room Services
Real experiences shared by restaurants, wine estates, pharmacies, and businesses across Durbanville who trusted MEM for emergency cold room repair, installation, and maintenance.
"Our walk-in freezer broke down on a Friday evening with R75,000 of product at risk. MEM arrived within 52 minutes, diagnosed a load-shedding surge-damaged compressor contactor, replaced it on the spot, and had the freezer back to -18°C before midnight. That response saved our entire weekend trading stock. Absolutely exceptional service from the Durbanville team."
"MEM installed a custom two-zone cellar cooling system for our Durbanville wine estate — 14°C for our maturation cellar and 8°C for the tasting room service fridge. They used marine-grade condenser coatings on the outdoor unit and commissioned the system perfectly before harvest. Two years later, not a single degree of temperature drift. This is exactly what wine-grade refrigeration demands."
"Our Tygervalley pharmacy vaccine cold room triggered a temperature alarm at 2am. MEM was on site within 48 minutes, replaced a surge-damaged PCB, confirmed full temperature recovery with data logging, and delivered a complete SAHPRA-compliant service report within 24 hours. That level of documented emergency response is precisely what pharmaceutical cold chain compliance requires."
"MEM installed a complete cold room for our Rosenpark catering company — a 30m² walk-in chiller with generator integration and an automatic transfer switch. The installation was clean, on-time, and has run flawlessly since commissioning. The generator integration means we've had zero stock losses through load shedding in 18 months. Outstanding work and a genuine 6-month warranty."
