FAQS

Commercial Fridge Repair Questions

Can you repair my commercial fridge if it's still under warranty?

Yes. We can repair commercial fridges still under manufacturer’s warranty. For the repair to be covered under warranty, contact the manufacturer directly and request a work order confirming warranty coverage and authorisation. Once we receive the valid work order, we’ll proceed with the warranty repair.

If you prefer to proceed without a manufacturer’s work order, we’re happy to repair your fridge on a chargeable basis. Either way, our repairs won’t void your manufacturer’s warranty when carried out to manufacturer repair standards.

How much does a commercial fridge repair typically cost?

Commercial fridge repair costs vary depending on the specific issue and equipment size. Thermostat replacement or drain clearing may be relatively low-cost. Compressor or evaporator coil repair can be more substantial. The best way to get an accurate quote is to call us on 1300-434-380 for a free phone consultation. We’ll discuss your issue and provide ballpark costs before scheduling your appointment.

Can you fix my commercial fridge today?

We aim to complete most commercial fridge repairs same-day when parts are in stock. Call us immediately on 1300-434-380 and we’ll assess whether same-day repair is possible for your specific issue. For urgent situations where food preservation is critical, we prioritise same-day service.

Is it worth repairing an older commercial fridge, or should I replace it?

This depends on repair costs versus replacement value, age of the equipment, and frequency of breakdowns. A compressor repair on newer equipment is usually worth fixing. Multiple failures on older equipment might make replacement more economical. Our technicians can assess your situation and provide an honest recommendation during inspection.

Why does a commercial fridge need professional repair? Can't we fix it ourselves?

Commercial fridge repairs involve high-pressure refrigerant systems, high-voltage electrical components, and complex mechanical parts. DIY attempts risk refrigerant leaks, electrical hazards, and voided warranties. Professional repair ensures safety, proper diagnosis, and lasting fixes. Our technicians are trained on all commercial fridge types and carry genuine parts.

How long does a typical commercial fridge repair take?

Most commercial fridge repairs take 1-2 hours if parts are in stock. Simple repairs like thermostat replacement or drain clearing may be faster. Complex repairs involving compressor or evaporator work can take longer. We’ll provide a time estimate during your assessment.

What should I do if my commercial fridge stops cooling?

Stop using it immediately and call us on 1300-434-380 for urgent service. Food spoilage can occur quickly in commercial settings. Check that the fridge is plugged in and the thermostat is set correctly while you wait for our technician. We can often provide emergency same-day repair.

Can you perform preventative maintenance on commercial fridges?

Yes. Regular servicing and maintenance can extend the life of your commercial fridge and prevent many common issues. Call us to discuss preventative maintenance schedules for your specific equipment.
