A refrigerator is one of the most important appliances in your home, keeping your food fresh and your drinks cold.

Why isn't my refrigerator cooling?
If your refrigerator isn't cooling, it could be due to a variety of reasons. The most common cause is a faulty compressor, which is responsible for circulating refrigerant through the system. Additionally, a faulty thermostat, clogged condenser coils, or a malfunctioning evaporator fan can cause your refrigerator to stop cooling.
To troubleshoot this issue, check to see if the compressor is running. If not, it may need to be replaced. Additionally, clean the condenser coils to ensure proper airflow and check the thermostat to see if it needs to be adjusted or replaced. If the evaporator fan isn't working, it may need to be repaired or replaced.
Can I fix the problem myself?
If you have experience in appliance repair and the necessary tools, you may be able to fix the problem yourself. However, refrigerator repairs can be complex and dangerous if you're not familiar with the components and their functions. For your safety and to ensure that the problem is properly diagnosed and fixed, it's best to leave the repairs to a professional technician.
How long will it take to fix my refrigerator?
The length of time it takes to fix your refrigerator depends on the specific issue and the availability of parts. Our experienced technicians will diagnose the problem and provide you with an estimate of the repair time and cost.
Should I repair or replace my refrigerator?
If your refrigerator is relatively new and the cost of repairs is reasonable, it's generally more cost-effective to repair the appliance. However, if your refrigerator is older and has multiple issues, it may be more cost-effective to replace it.
