What's wrong with your refrigerator?

A refrigerator usually tells you what is wrong before it quits. These are the calls we get most often:

Not coolingFresh food section warm while the freezer is still cold usually points to the evaporator fan, a frosted coil or the air damper. Both sections warm points to the condenser fan, start relay, compressor or sealed system.Book this repair → Ice maker not workingNo ice, hollow or small cubes, or ice frozen into a block. Common causes are a failing water inlet valve, a frozen fill tube, the ice maker module or a clogged water filter.Book this repair → Leaking waterWater under the crispers is almost always a plugged defrost drain. Water on the floor can be the drain pan, the supply line, the filter housing or the inlet valve.Book this repair → Too much frostIce building up on the back wall of the freezer means the automatic defrost isn't running — a defrost heater, thermostat, sensor or control board.Book this repair → Loud or clickingBuzzing, grinding or a click every few minutes. Fan blades hitting ice, a worn fan motor or a compressor that tries to start and fails.Book this repair → Dispenser problemsNo water, slow flow, a dispenser that won't stop, or a frozen water line in the door.Book this repair →

How we work

Diagnosed, not guessed

Most refrigerator problems come down to a handful of parts: fans, the defrost system, the start relay, sensors, the control board and the water valve. We test them at your home instead of guessing, so you pay for the part that actually failed.

Once we know the cause you get a price for the repair before any work starts. Common parts ride on our truck, so many refrigerators are cooling again before we leave. If a part has to be ordered, we order it the same day and book the return visit with you.

Good to know

Quick checks before you call

Some problems have a simple cause you can check yourself in a few minutes. If these don't help, we're a click away.

1
Check the settings
Make sure the temperature wasn't bumped and the fridge isn't in showroom or demo mode — the lights work, but nothing cools.
2
Look at the condenser coils
Dust-packed coils under or behind the fridge make it run hot and long. Unplug it and vacuum them.
3
Keep the vents clear
Food pushed against the air vents between the freezer and the fridge can starve the fresh food section of cold air.
4
Garage fridge in winter?
In a cold Colorado garage many refrigerators stop running, and the freezer thaws. That is a location problem, not always a broken fridge.

FAQ

Repair questions

Something else? Give us a call — we always get back to you.

Is it worth repairing my refrigerator?

Usually, yes. Fans, defrost parts, sensors, relays, valves and ice makers cost a fraction of a new refrigerator. A failed compressor or a leak in the sealed system on an older, inexpensive model is the case where replacing often makes more sense — and we'll tell you that honestly after the diagnosis.

My fridge is warm but the freezer is cold. What does that mean?

Cold air is made in the freezer and blown into the fridge. When only the fridge is warm, the usual suspects are the evaporator fan, a coil blocked with frost from a defrost failure, or the air damper. All of them are repairable.

How long does food last while the fridge is down?

About 4 hours in a closed refrigerator and roughly a day in a full, closed freezer. Keep the doors shut and book the earliest open window.

Do you repair built-in refrigerators like Sub-Zero?

Yes, we work on built-in and column refrigerators as well as everyday freestanding models. Mention the brand and model when you book so we can come prepared.
