Premium Wine Cellar Maintenance in Orange County

Think of your wine cellar like a luxury car—sleek, impressive, and not something you want breaking down in the middle of a hot summer day. You wouldn’t skip an oil change on a vintage Porsche, so why ignore your climate-controlled shrine to Cabernet?

Our wine cellar maintenance service is like a tune-up for your treasure trove—fine-tuning temperatures, tightening up humidity control, and checking for any lurking mold or misbehaving machines.

Whether you’ve got a compact wine wall tucked behind a walnut-paneled bar or a full-blown, chandelier-lit cellar that could host a vineyard tour, we deliver tailored, white-glove care to keep things running smooth and tasting even smoother.

What’s At Stake Without Proper Maintenance?

Wine is sensitive—just a few degrees of temperature fluctuation or slight humidity imbalance can degrade quality. A neglected cellar could mean hundreds or thousands of dollars in ruined wine. Our maintenance packages proactively address the invisible threats hiding in your cellar environment.

Full-Service Wine Cellar Maintenance Includes:

  • Deep diagnostics of refrigeration and climate control systems
  • Precision calibration of temperature and humidity levels
  • Mold, mildew & microbial inspections with prevention treatments
  • Check and service vapor barriers, insulation, and door seals
  • LED lighting audits to ensure safe spectrum exposure
  • Electrical and drain line testing for cooling units
  • Quarterly or bi-annual service schedules customized to your cellar

5 Signs Your Wine Cellar Needs Immediate Maintenance

  • Visible condensation or frost buildup
  • Sudden changes in temperature or humidity readings
  • Acrid or musty odors near your racks or vents
  • Cooling unit is louder than usual or cycling irregularly
  • Wine labels peeling or corks showing shrinkage

How to Maintain Your Wine Cellar Between Visits

  • Monitor temperature weekly (ideal: 55°F)
  • Keep humidity between 55–70% using a hygrometer
  • Ensure racks are dust-free and unblocked
  • Test door seals and watch for air leaks
  • Check backup power supply functionality

What Our Clients Are Saying

“I had no idea how delicate my wine cellar was until the team came in. They found mold beginning to form behind the racks—something I would’ve never noticed. Now everything’s spotless, the cooling unit runs quieter, and I feel like my collection is finally being taken care of the way it deserves.”

— Patrick L., Newport Beach

“These guys saved my wine and my sanity. When my cooling system failed during a heatwave, they came out same-day, diagnosed the problem, and fixed it before I lost a single bottle. I now have them on a quarterly plan, and I sleep easier knowing they’re on it.”

— Elena R., Laguna Niguel

We had a wonderful experience with CWC. They were very professional and guided us thru every step of the process. Their design was terrific and we couldn't be more happy with the finished product. They built and installed a "statement" piece in our home and we have had so many "WOW" comments from friends and family. They far exceeded our expectations and I would give them the highest recommendation.

Great experience with CWC! They took a wonky space in our home and gave it a purpose and made it a showpiece. They gave us great design suggestions for both functionality and aesthetics. The cooling unit is very quiet and efficient. The woodworking is beautiful. The accent lighting on the shelving adds the finishing touch. Their work crews were professional and meticulous. We can’t wait to have our friends over for wine.

Thank goodness I found Steve and Customer Wine Cellars when our wine cellar stopped working 2 years ago. Steve and his team have been incredibly responsive and their service has been fantastic. I love that their supervisor David and their service guy Cristobal text me when they are on their way and they treat our home with care. They have set us up for preventative maintenance service calls every 6 months which gives me peace of mind. Highly recommend!

Called Custom Wine Cellar OC because my Wine Cellar wasn’t getting to the correct temperature. Turns out the Wine Cellar that came In our custom home wasn’t built correctly. Steve was knowledgeable and able to correct the problem.

My experience with Custom Wine Cellar Orange County in creating a custom wine cellar design was nothing short of exceptional. As an avid wine collector, I have wanted a space that not only showcased my collection but also embodied elegance and functionality. The professionalism of the team at Custom Wine Cellar was outstanding. They took the time to understand my vision, preferences, and specific needs for the wine cellar. Their expertise in wine cellar design and their passion for the art of wine collection shone through. I was presented with a range of concepts, each of which incorporated innovative storage solutions, climate control technology, and aesthetics. They seamlessly blended functionality with beauty, ensuring that every inch of the cellar would serve a purpose while being a work of art in its own right. One aspect that truly impressed me was their attention to detail. The selection of materials, from the wood for the wine racks to the lighting fixtures. The end result was a wine cellar that not only preserved my collection at optimal conditions but also provided an environment where I could appreciate and share my wines with friends and family.
