Frequently Asked Questions
You Have A Question?
We repair all types and brands of refrigerators, including:
- Standard refrigerators: Fridge appliances without freezer integrated in them
- Bottom freezer refrigerators: These models have the freezer compartment located at the bottom, making it easier to access frequently used refrigerator items.
- Top freezer refrigerators: Traditional models with the freezer compartment on top and the refrigerator compartment below.
- American/Side-by-Side Refrigerators: These models have the freezer compartment on one side and the refrigerator on the other.
- French door refrigerators: Featuring two doors for the refrigerator compartment and a bottom freezer drawer, these are popular for their style and convenience.
No matter the brand or model, our skilled technicians have the expertise to handle your repair needs.
Some of the most common issues we encounter with refrigerators include:
- Leaks and water damage: Often caused by a faulty water inlet valve or a clogged defrost drain.
- Temperature control problems: This can result in the fridge being too warm or too cold, often due to a malfunctioning thermostat or temperature sensor.
- Noise issues: Unusual noises can be a sign of a problem with the compressor, condenser fan, or evaporator fan.
- Ice maker malfunctions: Ice makers can stop working due to obstructions, mechanical failures, or issues with the water supply line.
- Defrost problems: If the defrost system fails, ice can build up in the freezer, reducing its efficiency.
- Door seal problems: Worn or damaged door seals can allow cold air to escape, making the refrigerator less efficient and increasing energy bills.
The time required to repair a refrigerator depends on the specific problem. In most cases, we aim to have your fridge up and running within 24 hours. However, more complex repairs or issues requiring special parts may take longer. Our technicians will provide an estimated timeline after diagnosing the problem.
The cost of refrigerator repairs varies based on the nature and extent of the problem. Factors that influence the cost include:
- Type of repair: Simple fixes like replacing door seals may be less expensive than complex repairs involving the compressor or defrost system.
- Parts required: The cost of replacement parts can vary depending on the brand and model of your refrigerator.
- Labour: The time and expertise required to complete the repair also affect the overall cost.

Always by Your Side 24 Hours
Refrigerators, like any other household appliance, can develop problems over time. However, many of these issues can be solved with simple and effective repairs. Repairs not only extend the life of your fridge, but also contribute to sustainability by reducing the need to produce new appliances and the amount of electronic waste. Whenever possible, we recommend opting for repair rather than replacement, as long as it is economically viable and technically appropriate.
Refrigerator age
The first step in deciding whether to repair or replace your fridge is to determine its age. Refrigerators generally have a lifespan of around 10 to 20 years. If your fridge is more than 15 years old, it may be more cost-effective to replace it rather than repair it. As household appliances age, they tend to become less efficient and more prone to breakdowns, making replacement a more practical choice in the long term.
Energetic efficiency
Next, compare the energy efficiency of your current fridge with modern models. Older fridges tend to consume more electricity, which can result in higher energy bills. If your fridge is significantly less efficient than newer models, replacing it can save you money in energy costs over time. Modern fridges are designed to be more energy efficient, offering better performance and lower environmental impact.
Cost of Repair vs. Replacement
Get our quote for repair costs and compare it with the price of a new fridge. A general rule of thumb is that if repair costs are more than 50 per cent of the price of a new fridge, it's usually better to replace it. This comparison helps you balance the immediate costs with the long-term benefits and savings of a new, more reliable fridge.
Frequency of Repairs
Evaluate how often your fridge has needed repairs in recent years. Frequent repairs can be a sign that your fridge is reaching the end of its useful life. If it has had several repairs recently, this may indicate that the fridge is becoming less reliable and that replacement may be a wiser option. Constantly repairing an ageing appliance can become more expensive and inconvenient over time.
Extent of the Problem
Identify the specific problems with your fridge. Determine whether it's a minor repair, such as a faulty thermostat, or a major repair, such as a broken compressor. Minor issues can often be resolved at a reasonable cost, allowing you to extend the life of your fridge. However, major issues, especially with critical components such as the compressor, usually indicate that replacement is more sensible.
Technological advances
Modern fridges come with better insulation, improved cooling technologies and smart features that can make them more efficient and convenient to use. If your fridge doesn't have these advances, upgrading to a new model can offer significant benefits. The latest models can provide better temperature control, energy efficiency and additional features that can improve your overall experience.
