Common problems we diagnose
Contact us if you notice one of these symptoms or another change in how your appliance operates.
Water leaking
Water under the appliance or inside a compartment may be related to a blocked drain, water line, filter housing, inlet valve, or door-seal issue.
Ice maker not working
We diagnose ice makers that stop producing ice, make undersized cubes, overflow, or fail to dispense properly.
Excess frost or frozen food
Frost buildup and frozen fresh food can indicate a door-seal, airflow, sensor, damper, or defrost-system problem.
Unusual or loud noises
Buzzing, rattling, clicking, or scraping may come from a fan, ice maker, compressor area, or another moving component.
Freezer problems
Contact us when a freezer will not stay cold, develops heavy frost, leaks, or runs more often than expected.
Refrigerant leak diagnosis and recharge
A refrigerator that is not cooling does not automatically need more refrigerant. Our EPA Section 608-certified technicians inspect the appliance to identify the cause before recommending sealed-system work.
When we find a refrigerant leak and repair is feasible, we repair the leak and recharge the system with the refrigerant specified for the model. Tell us your refrigerator's brand and model number when requesting service so we can confirm support.

Should I unplug a refrigerator that is not cooling?
If the appliance has a burning smell, sparks, damaged wiring, or is sitting in water, disconnect power only when it is safe to do so. Otherwise, keeping it powered can help the technician observe the symptoms. Keep the doors closed and follow food-safety guidance for perishable food.
Do you repair refrigerator ice makers and freezers?
Yes. We diagnose refrigerator ice makers and many refrigerator-freezer and standalone-freezer problems. Share the brand and model number when scheduling so we can confirm service.
Can you refill my refrigerator's Freon?
Yes, when a diagnosis shows that refrigerant service is appropriate. Our EPA Section 608-certified technicians check for leaks, repair them when feasible, and recharge with the refrigerant specified for your model.
