Common Refrigerator Problems that Require Repair

Sure, some issues are easy to spot, like a digital readout of 80°F inside your refrigerator or water leaking onto the floor, but some issues are more subtle. Because it never hurts to have some certainty—not only that the issue should be repaired, but that we can perform those repairs—check out the most common issues we get called out for below:

Water

  • There is frost or ice buildup in the freezer, particularly on the back wall
  • There is standing water at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment
  • There are puddles at the base of the refrigerator

Cooling

  • Food in the refrigerator is freezing or icing over
  • Food in the refrigerator is warm
  • Either too little or too much ice is being produced
  • The digital temperature readout is high or doesn’t seem to match the temperature you feel inside the compartment
  • The sides of the refrigerator seem to be unusually hot
  • Food seems to be spoiling faster than usual

Mechanical / Electrical

  • The refrigerator is running more often than usual and/or is making a lot of noise
  • Doors no longer have a tight seal
  • Drawers, shelves, lights, etc. are broken
  • Refrigerator is making unusual noises

If you notice any of these issues, don’t hesitate to reach out to us for advice. Hometown Hero Appliance Repair has the tools and expertise to evaluate, diagnose and fix any issue with your refrigerator, so don’t hesitate to reach out. We’ll give you a quote for repairs, and let you know whether it makes more sense to repair or replace.


Factory Authorizations for Repairs Under Warranty

To receive compensation for repairs made while your refrigerator is under warranty, most manufacturers require that you use a service company they have authorized. Our authorizations tell you two things: (1) we are experts on servicing that brand, and (2) the manufacturer knows this and trusts us with their refrigerators. We are proudly authorized to provide:

We are also trained experts at repairing refrigerators by Jenn Air, KitchenAid, Maytag, Whirlpool, Amana, Danby, Fisher and Paykel, Roper and Viking. Really, our technicians have such a deep understanding of the technology, there is no brand or model of refrigerator they can’t diagnose and fix.

Upon inspection the refrigerator was leaking under the crisper drawers. I also found a ice chunk on the back wall from weak insulation. The water leaking kit would be needed to repair the clogged defrost drain.Thanks for choosing Hometown Hero Appliance Repair.

Upon inspection the refrigerator was warm on the fresh food side. I got temperatures of -1?F in the freezer and 52?F in the fresh food. I tested the damper and it opens ok but no air flows. I found the freezer evaporator frozen up and tried to defrost. The heater gets power but fails to melt the ice. The heater has failed and I will return to complete the repair.Thanks for choosing Hometown Hero Appliance Repair.

During inspection I ran the unit in a diagnostic mode. Unit was displaying a fresh food fan error code. Steamed out the ice buildup and gained access to the fan. Installed the new fresh food fan assembly and reassembled the unit. Ran an update and confirmed the fan was operating properly.Please vote for us for Lincoln Choice Awards!!!https://journalstar.com/exclusive/readerschoice/ballot-2026/Thanks for choosing Home Town Hero Appliance Repairs.

Bryce was great. Very courteous and thorough with his investigation upon diagnosing what was wrong with our appliance. After determining the cost of repair to be very pricy, Bruce was honest about his recommendation to replace the appliance vs repairing it and was great when asked about his recommendations on brands that perform well vs ones that require numerous repairs throughout their life. Great customer service.
