Your trusted home services company in Kendall
Kendall is one of Miami-Dade County’s largest unincorporated communities, with roughly 75,000 residents in the core area and many more counting the broader East Kendall, West Kendall, and Kendall Lakes neighborhoods. Unlike most of our service area, Kendall is not its own city, which means county-level governance, building permitting, and code enforcement apply directly. The housing reflects a layered 1960s through early-2000s build-out: original 1960s and 1970s ranch-style single-family near Dadeland Mall, mid-1980s and 1990s master-planned communities like The Hammocks, Lakes by the Bay, Three Lakes, Kings Creek, Killian Pines, and Calusa, the gated estates of Devon-Aire and Snapper Creek Lakes, and newer townhomes near West Kendall’s Krome Avenue corridor. Total Repair Pros has been keeping South Florida homes comfortable, safe, and running since 1970. Whether it’s a same-day Kendall AC repair, Kendall plumbing repair, Kendall electrical repair, or Kendall appliance repair, every call is answered by our local team and handled by an in-house licensed technician.
Because most Kendall housing is now 30 to 65 years old, the first wave of builder-grade AC systems, water heaters, galvanized plumbing, and 100-amp electrical panels is reaching end-of-life. As a result, we see compressors, condensers, and original water heaters needing attention every week, especially in the older East Kendall sections off Kendall Drive. Meanwhile, because Kendall is unincorporated, permitting and code enforcement run through Miami-Dade County. After more than 55 years in South Florida, we know how those conditions affect compressors, plumbing, panels, and major appliances, and what to do about it.
Whether you’re in a Hammocks single-family, a Snapper Creek Lakes gated estate, or a 1960s ranch near Dadeland Mall, every job is handled by a licensed, background-checked Total technician (never a subcontractor).

What are the most common AC repairs in Kendall homes?
Because most Kendall housing is 30 to 65 years old, the repairs we see most are aging compressors and condensers, failed capacitors and contactors, clogged condensate drain lines, and worn blower motors. On older East Kendall systems we also handle low refrigerant from tired line sets, frozen coils, and control-board faults.
Why is my AC not cooling in my Kendall home?
The most common cause is a tripped condensate float switch after a drain line clogs, followed by a dirty coil, a failed run capacitor, a bad contactor, low refrigerant, or a thermostat fault. On the older systems common in Kendall, a worn compressor or fan motor can also be the culprit, and a technician can confirm which in one visit.
Should I repair or replace an older Kendall AC system?
A lot of Kendall systems are already past the 15-year mark, so this comes up often. If the unit is newer and a single part failed, we repair it. Once an older compressor goes or refrigerant leaks recur on aging equipment, we give you clear repair-versus-replace numbers, including the correctly sized replacement a proper load calculation calls for.
Do you offer AC maintenance plans in Kendall?
Yes. Inland Kendall heat runs systems hard, so twice-yearly maintenance is the best way to get full life out of older equipment. Each tune-up includes a coil wash, condensate drain clearing, a refrigerant and pressure check, and a full electrical inspection. Covered AC repairs are also included in Total home warranty and service plans.
Plumbing Repair in Kendall
Total handles residential plumbing across Kendall, from a single leak to a full re-pipe. Our licensed plumbers (CFC1432410) give flat-rate quotes and run same-day service on leaks and no-hot-water calls. Call (954) 900-6767.
What plumbing problems are most common in Kendall homes?
On Kendall slab-foundation homes we see slab leaks, corroded shutoff valves, running toilets, and water heater failures. The bigger pattern is aging supply piping: 1960s East Kendall homes often still run original galvanized lines that rust from the inside out and drop your pressure, while late-1970s and 1980s homes often have polybutylene that most insurers no longer accept.
Do you re-pipe galvanized and polybutylene lines in Kendall homes?
Yes. Full re-pipes are one of our most common Kendall jobs. We replace rusting galvanized and no-longer-accepted polybutylene supply lines with modern piping, pulled under Miami-Dade County plumbing permits because Kendall is unincorporated, and we work to keep wall and finish disruption to a minimum.
Do you clear clogged drains and main lines in Kendall?
Yes. For a slow or backed-up drain we can snake, hydro-jet, and run a camera inspection to locate the clog or a broken lateral, then show you what we find before recommending any further work.
Appliance Repair in Kendall
Total repairs the kitchen and laundry appliances in Kendall homes, all major brands, with common parts stocked on the truck. Call (954) 900-6767 with your model number and we will confirm coverage.
Which appliance brands do you repair in Kendall?
We repair all major brands, including Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, Frigidaire, Samsung, LG, Bosch, and KitchenAid, along with high-end lines like Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, and Viking in the Devon-Aire and Snapper Creek Lakes estates. We carry common parts on the truck so most Kendall repairs are done in one visit.
How fast can you repair a refrigerator in Kendall?
Refrigerator and freezer failures are our top same-day priority because of food loss, so we move them to the front of the dispatch line. We stock common compressors, fans, control boards, and gaskets on the truck to finish many repairs on the first visit.
Do you repair washers, dryers, and garage second refrigerators in Kendall?
Yes. Laundry appliances and garage second refrigerators are frequent Kendall calls in these family neighborhoods. We service washers, dryers, dishwashers, ovens, ranges, and ice makers, and we will tell you honestly when a repair is worth it versus replacement.
Electrical Repair in Kendall
Total licensed electricians (EC0001244) handle repairs, upgrades, and installs across Kendall homes, permitted through Miami-Dade County because Kendall is unincorporated, and HVHZ-compliant. Call (954) 900-6767.
What electrical work do you do in Kendall homes?
We handle panel and breaker repairs and upgrades, dedicated circuits, whole-home surge protection, GFCI and outlet work, lighting and fixture installs, EV charger installs, and troubleshooting for tripping or dead circuits.
Do you upgrade electrical panels in older Kendall homes?
Yes. Many 1960s through 1980s Kendall homes still run original 100-amp panels that are undersized for modern AC and EV loads or use discontinued breakers. We assess the panel, pull the Miami-Dade County permit, and upgrade it to current code.
Do you add whole-home surge protection for Kendall storm season?
Yes. Storm-season surges are a leading killer of HVAC control boards, refrigerators, and pool equipment. We install a whole-home surge protector at the panel and update grounding on older homes, permitted through Miami-Dade County where required.
Why Kendall homes need a local specialist
Inland heat and the hidden AC strain
Because Kendall stretches across one of Miami-Dade’s hottest inland zones, summer highs near 90°F and dew points routinely above 75°F from May through October push AC systems to dehumidify nonstop. As a result, an oversized unit short-cycles and leaves clammy air behind, while an undersized one runs constantly and burns out compressors. Specifically, a proper Manual J load calculation is non-negotiable for Kendall installs.
1960s through early-2000s housing reaching replacement age
Kendall housing is mostly 30 to 65 years old, so original AC systems, water heaters, galvanized plumbing, and 100-amp electrical panels are common, and often well past their service life. Furthermore, we document what we find without scare tactics and price honest repair-or-replace paths, including the larger services modern AC and EV loads demand.
Master-planned and gated community work
Kendall is heavy on master-planned and gated neighborhoods: The Hammocks, Lakes by the Bay, Three Lakes, Kings Creek, Killian Pines, Calusa, Devon-Aire, Snapper Creek Lakes. As a result, working here means dealing with gate access, HOA architectural rules, and community quiet hours. In addition, we handle that coordination so your project stays on schedule and in good standing with the association.
Galvanized and polybutylene re-pipes
East Kendall homes from the 1960s frequently still have original galvanized water lines that are now rusting from the inside out and reducing pressure. Meanwhile, homes from the late 1970s and 1980s often have polybutylene, which is no longer accepted by most insurers. We do full re-pipes under Miami-Dade County plumbing permits.
Hurricane season prep (June through November)
Because hurricane season brings frequent grid instability, power surges from storms are the number one killer of HVAC control boards, refrigerators, and pool equipment. Therefore, for Kendall homes we recommend a whole-home surge protector at the panel, a generator interlock or transfer switch, and updated grounding on older homes. All under Miami-Dade County permits.
Local permits & HVHZ compliance
Because Kendall is unincorporated, building permits are issued by Miami-Dade County’s own Building Department, not a separate city department. The county enforces Florida’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) code, whose requirements for condenser tie-downs, mounting pads, and electrical disconnects are among the strictest in the country. We pull every permit in-house and schedule the inspection. You just sign the permit and be there for the final inspection.

Kendall home services FAQ
Can Total get to my Kendall home the same day I call?
Often, yes. For emergency AC, plumbing leaks, no-hot-water, and electrical safety calls in Kendall we work to get a tech to you the same day. For non-emergency service we typically schedule next-day. Call (954) 900-6767 and we’ll tell you honestly what we can do.
Who issues building permits in Kendall?
Because Kendall is unincorporated Miami-Dade County, permits are issued by Miami-Dade County’s Building Department, not a city department. AC, electrical, and plumbing permits for Kendall projects are pulled through Miami-Dade County. We pull every permit in-house, so all you need to do as the homeowner is sign it and be there for the final inspection.
How much does AC installation cost in Kendall?
For most Kendall single-family homes, a complete AC system replacement runs from about $5,800 to $11,500 depending on tonnage, SEER2 rating, brand (Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem), and ductwork condition. Larger Snapper Creek Lakes and Devon-Aire estates can be higher. We give a written, itemized quote on-site and offer financing, often approved on the spot.
Does Total work in The Hammocks, Snapper Creek Lakes, and other gated communities?
Yes. We regularly service The Hammocks, Snapper Creek Lakes, Devon-Aire, Lakes by the Bay, Three Lakes, Kings Creek, Killian Pines, and Calusa. We handle gate access, HOA architectural rules, and community quiet hours.
My East Kendall home is from the 1960s. Does Total re-pipe and upgrade panels?
Yes. That’s a big part of our Kendall work. We re-pipe homes with old galvanized or polybutylene plumbing, upgrade 100-amp panels to modern 200-amp service for current AC and EV loads, and replace original water heaters that are well past their service life.
Which appliance brands does Total repair in Kendall?
We repair all major brands. Whirlpool, GE, Maytag, Frigidaire, Samsung, LG, Bosch, KitchenAid, Sub-Zero, Wolf, Thermador, Viking, Miele, Fisher & Paykel, and more. We carry common parts on the truck so most Kendall repairs are finished in a single visit.
Is Kendall a city?
No. Kendall is an unincorporated community within Miami-Dade County, so it does not have its own city government or building department. That means permits, code enforcement, and other municipal functions are handled directly by Miami-Dade County. For homeowners this changes very little day to day; for our work it means we pull permits through the county rather than a separate city department.
Does Total offer financing for Kendall customers?
Yes. We offer financing through multiple programs, with same-day approval on AC installs, water heaters, panel upgrades, and re-pipes, plus 0% intro options for qualified buyers.
