Refrigerator Repair

Warm fridge, leaking freezer, ice maker on strike — fixed the same week, usually the same day.

A refrigerator that isn't cooling properly turns into a race against spoiled groceries. We diagnose the real cause — not just the fan that's loudest — and quote the fix before we touch anything.

Typical repair range: $120–$450 · Most compressor, evaporator fan, and control board repairs. Sealed-system (refrigerant) work runs higher.

FAQ

Refrigerator Repair questions, answered

My fridge is warm but the freezer is fine — is that expensive to fix?

Usually not. That pattern points to a blocked evaporator fan, a failing damper control, or a defrost issue — all common, moderate-cost repairs. A full sealed-system failure is rarer and would be quoted separately before any work starts.

Is it worth repairing an older refrigerator?

If the compressor and sealed system are healthy, yes — most repairs cost a fraction of a new unit. We'll tell you plainly if your model is a poor repair candidate instead of billing you for a fix that won't hold.

Why is there water under my crisper drawers?

Almost always a clogged or frozen defrost drain. It's one of our fastest, most affordable fixes — often resolved in the same visit as the diagnostic.

Can you fix an ice maker without replacing the whole fridge?

In most cases yes — the ice maker module, water inlet valve, or a frozen fill tube are the usual culprits and are all repairable parts.

Do you work on built-in / counter-depth refrigerators?

Yes, including built-in columns and counter-depth French door models from all major brands.

How fast can you get here for a warm refrigerator?

We treat warm-fridge calls as a priority since food spoilage is time-sensitive — same-day appointments are often available across Houston.
