01
did my Profitec's brew boiler in about a week. drop-off only, no house calls, but they know ECM/Profitec/Rocket internals cold
02
book ahead. they've been backed up 2-3 weeks every time I've called but Breville and La Marzocco both funnel here
03
the only one on this list that comes to you. paid a premium for a house call on a 60lb machine and it was worth it
04
covers Monterey too if you're further south. never used them myself, a friend swears by them for her Rocket
06
search here before calling anyone above. half these recs came from this board. not a shop, just good free triage
