What We Fix
Our refrigerator repair covers the parts that actually fail on high-end units, not just the quick swaps:
- Dual sealed-system diagnosis on Sub-Zero built-ins
- Defrost heater, bimetal, and drain repairs
- Evaporator and condenser fan motor replacement
- Compressor start relays, capacitors, and inverter boards
- Door gaskets, hinges, and closer adjustment
- Control boards and temperature sensor calibration
Common Problems We See
These are the symptoms customers across Chestnut Hill and the metro call us about most:
- Fresh-food section warm while the freezer stays cold
- Compressor runs nonstop and never cycles off
- Water pooling under the crisper or on the floor
- Frost sheeting the rear evaporator panel
- Ice or water dispenser not working
Book a Diagnostic Visit
We confirm the fault, then quote the repair in writing. Diagnostic and travel fees, if applicable, are confirmed before the appointment and before repair approval.
Typical Causes
Behind those symptoms, the root cause is usually one of these, which the diagnostic visit pins down before we quote:
- A failed defrost heater leaving the evaporator iced over
- A dust-clogged condenser restricting heat rejection
- A blocked defrost drain backing water into the cabinet
- A weak compressor start relay or a low sealed-system charge from a leak

Safety note. If a refrigerator is leaking water near an outlet or the compressor area is hot to the touch, unplug it and book a visit rather than running it.
