Fridge repair North York - Frequently asked questions
These answers cover the most common refrigerator problems we see in North York homes and condos. They are also here to replace the Q and A feature that is no longer available on Google Business Profile, so customers can get clear answers before booking.
Is the $85 service call waived?
Yes. If you approve the repair during the visit, the $85 service call is waived and applied toward the repair price. If you choose not to repair, the service call covers the diagnosis and professional guidance.
The freezer is cold but the fridge is warm. What usually causes that?
The most common causes are restricted airflow or a fan and defrost issue. Ice buildup on the evaporator, a failed evaporator fan, a stuck damper, or a defrost fault can stop cold air from reaching the fresh food section. We test airflow and defrost operation together to confirm the root cause.
Water is leaking under the fridge. Is it always the water line?
Not always. Leaks can come from a clogged defrost drain, drain pan issues, ice maker fill problems, or a connection that loosens over time. In condos, a slow defrost drain clog is very common. Diagnosis confirms the exact leak source before any parts are replaced.
Do you service built-in and panel-ready refrigerators in North York?
Yes. We plan access carefully, protect surrounding cabinetry, and confirm temperature stability, fan operation, and quiet performance before finishing. If panel transfer or cabinet adjustments are required, we explain the scope clearly before proceeding.
My refrigerator is running constantly. Is that a compressor problem?
Not necessarily. Constant running can be caused by dirty condenser coils, poor door sealing, high internal load, airflow restriction, defrost problems, or a thermostat and sensor issue. We measure temperatures, check airflow, and confirm the control signals before labeling it a compressor issue.
The fridge is making loud noise or clicking. What does that mean?
Noise can come from the evaporator fan, condenser fan, ice buildup contacting the fan, a loose panel, or normal defrost cycles. Clicking can be a relay or electrical control behavior. We identify the noise source and confirm whether it is normal operation or a failing component.
Do you provide same-day fridge repair in North York?
When schedule and parts allow, yes. If same-day is not available, we offer the soonest possible appointment and clear time windows. For urgent cooling failures, we prioritize diagnosis first so you can make a fast decision on repair.
