How We Repair Your Freezer
Freezers and blast chillers keep food at or below 0°F, so a small fault can put a lot of stored food at risk.
Common Freezer Problems We Fix
Clicking but not starting
Usually the start relay or overload; sometimes the compressor itself.
Not freezing or food softening
A dirty condenser, a failed fan, a bad start relay or thermostat, or a defrost failure. Low refrigerant from a leak is checked if those are fine.
Heavy frost or ice build-up
A worn door gasket, a door that does not close fully, or a failed defrost heater or timer on frost-free models.
Runs all the time
Dirty coils, a bad gasket, a failing condenser fan or a freezer sitting in a space that is too hot or too cold for it.
Water leaking
A blocked defrost drain or a cracked drain pan.
Quick Checks Before You Call
These are safe for most owners and sometimes solve the problem without a visit:
- Check the thermostat setting and that the unit has power at the outlet.
- Make sure the door or lid closes tightly and the gasket is not torn.
- Clear frost thicker than a quarter inch on manual-defrost models.
- Check whether the freezer is in a garage that is colder or hotter than its rated range.

Should I repair or replace my freezer?
A freezer typically lasts about 10 to 20 years. If yours is well inside that range and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repairing usually makes sense. Near the end of its life, or when the repair costs more than half of a replacement, replacing is often the better value. We give you an honest opinion either way.
