Common Fridge-Freezer Faults We Repair
- Fridge Not Cooling: If the refrigerator compartment is warm while the freezer is still cold (or both sections are not cooling enough), potential causes include a faulty thermostat, a broken evaporator fan (which circulates cold air), or a blocked condenser coil.
- Freezer Icing Up / Fridge Too Warm: This often indicates a defrost system problem. Modern frost-free fridge-freezers have heaters and timers to auto-defrost. If those fail, ice can build up and block airflow to the fridge compartment.
- No Power / Compressor Not Running: If the fridge/freezer isn’t running at all, it could be as simple as a blown fuse/relay or something more involved like a failed compressor start relay or compressor motor.
- Water Leaks: Puddles under your fridge? That’s usually due to a clogged defrost drain or a leaky water inlet (for fridges with water dispensers/ice makers). We’ll unclog drains and fix any leaking valves or hoses.

If your fridge freezer isn’t cooling properly, it could be due to a faulty thermostat, damaged door seal, or a failed compressor or fan motor. Blocked vents or ice build-up can also restrict airflow, affecting temperature control. Our engineers will test each component, identify the cause, and replace any failed parts to restore the correct cooling function and keep your food fresh.

A leaking fridge freezer is often caused by a blocked or frozen defrost drain, a damaged door seal, or a cracked water inlet valve. Excess condensation or ice build-up can also result from incorrect temperature settings. Our engineers will check and clear any blockages, replace faulty parts if needed, and make sure your appliance is draining and cooling properly, preventing future leaks and water damage.
