FAQS
Fridge Repair Questions
Can you repair my fridge if it's still under warranty?
Yes. We can repair 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 fridge repair typically cost?
Fridge repair costs vary depending on the specific issue. Thermostat replacement or drain line cleaning 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 fridge today?
We aim to complete most 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, we prioritise same-day or next-day appointments to save your food.
Is it worth repairing an older fridge, or should I replace it?
This depends on repair costs versus replacement value, age of the appliance, and frequency of breakdowns. A compressor repair on a 5-year-old fridge is usually worth fixing. A compressor failure on a 15-year-old fridge might make replacement more sensible. Our technicians can assess your situation and provide an honest recommendation during inspection.
Why does my fridge need a professional? Can't I fix it myself?
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 fridge types and carry genuine parts.
How long does a typical fridge repair take?
Most 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 fridge stops cooling?
First, check that the fridge is plugged in, the thermostat is set correctly, and the vents aren’t blocked by food or ice. If the problem persists, stop using it and call us immediately on 1300-434-380. Food spoilage can occur quickly, so urgent service is important. We can often provide emergency same-day repair.
Can you install a new fridge if mine can't be repaired?
Yes. If replacement is the best option, we supply, install, and remove your old fridge, so you get a seamless, hassle-free experience. We can discuss fridge options and pricing during your service call.
