Check the freezer. Is the ice cream soft? Now check the fresh food side. Is the milk warm while the freezer stays cold? Those two answers point to different parts. A humming that never stops is another clue. So is water pooling under the crisper drawer. Tell us which symptoms match your fridge here in Margaret, and we will sort the likely causes. Call us.

We start with your description, since sounds and timing narrow things fast. Then we measure compartment temperatures, inspect the evaporator for frost, test the fans, and check electrical components with meters. Guesswork replaces parts; testing replaces the right one.
Frost on the rear panel usually means the defrost cycle stopped working. Heater, thermostat, sensor, or board are the usual suspects. Left alone, the frost blocks airflow and the fresh food side warms up. Worth looking at soon.
Unplugging it and letting it thaw overnight often restores cooling for a while. That's useful information, not a fix. If cooling returns after a thaw, the defrost system is the culprit and it will fail again.
Depends on the failure. A relay, fan, gasket, or drain clog is usually a sensible repair on almost any age unit. Sealed-system damage on a very old fridge is a different conversation. We tell you which side you're on.
Yes. Bring us the symptoms and any parts that were swapped. We run our own tests and tell you what we find, even if it differs from the first diagnosis.
Tell us what you hear, smell, or see. Grinding? Puddle? Blinking code? Small details narrow the list of likely causes before we ever pull the machine away from the wall.
A technician runs through a checklist: power, controls, sensors, motors, seals, drainage. We test instead of guessing, then walk you through the actual fault and your repair options.
Some faults are worth fixing today. Others mean the appliance is near the end. We tell you which is which, then complete the repair once you say go.
Ask these of anyone you let into your home β us included. Call and we'll answer all five before you book anything.
