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

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.

The customer's refrigerator was not cooling properly due to a failed compressor. We recovered the refrigerant, flushed the system with nitrogen to remove contaminants, replaced the compressor and filter drier, leak tested the system, and recharged it with refrigerant. The unit is now operating properly and the customer should allow 24 hours for temperatures to regulate. Job complete. Technician connected service gauges and confirmed compressor was not building proper pressure while running (53 psi on both high and low side). System was evacuated, flushed with RX11 and nitrogen to remove oil and contaminants, then the compressor and filter drier were removed and replaced. The system was pressurized with nitrogen and bubble tested for leaks, evacuated to 480 microns, held vacuum, then recharged. Final operating pressures settled at -1 psi (low side) and 114 psi (high side).

Job Details: 02/27/2026
The customer reported the refrigerator compressor repeatedly shutting off. We diagnosed a locked compressor that was causing the overload protection to trip repeatedly. After testing with a new start device and confirming the compressor was no longer functional, we discussed the findings with the customer. Job complete. Technician tested compressor startup amperage at 20A and found the compressor locked. A replacement start device was installed to rule out that component as the cause. The locked compressor and deteriorated filter drier would require replacement to restore full operation.
